Itinerary

Day :Private Day Tour to Coptic and Islamic Cairo

Step back in time and unveil the hidden stories of Cairo’s vibrant past on this unforgettable day tour. Journey first to the Amr ibn al-Aas Mosque, a touchstone of history built in AD 642 to mark the founding of Fustat, Egypt’s new capital. Feel centuries fall away as you wander its hallowed halls.

Next, lose yourself in the grandeur of the Ibn Tulun Mosque, built during the Abbasid era. Imagine the devotion of those who worshipped here long ago, their voices echoing in the intricate stonework. Then, let the Madrasah Sultan Hassan Mosque take your breath away – this Cairo Citadel complex is not only visually stunning but was once a center of Sunni learning.

Old Cairo awaits, a treasure trove of living history. Gaze in wonder at the Hanging Church, seeming to defy gravity within its ancient Roman fortress home. Step into the hushed sanctuary of the Church and Monastery of St. George, its unique round shape a testament to its place in the region’s history. At Abu Serga, let legends come alive as you stand where some believe the Holy Family once found shelter.

Feel a sense of serenity wash over you at the Ben Ezra Synagogue, its garden offering respite from the bustling city. Finally, the Coptic Museum beckons, its treasures whispering of Egypt’s Christian heritage within the walls of the Babylon Citadel. Return to your hotel with your heart full, forever touched by the enduring spirit of Cairo.
