Trip to Old Coptic, Islamic Cairo and the Egyptian Museum

During a day tour of Cairo, the tour takes visitors to the Egyptian Museum so they can observe ancient Egyptian artifacts including King Tutankhamun's valuables and ornaments. Your guide will spend two hours showing you which details exist within these artifacts. The burial place of Tutankhamun contained thousands of years of hidden gold and silver jewelry before its archaeological discovery.

After the Alabaster Mosque of Mohammed Ali at the Salah al-Din Citadel, you will proceed to Islamic Cairo's main attraction. Built by the Ottomans the mosque functioned as the Egyptian government's headquarters from Salah Eldin's reign to the early 1900s.

A selection of Egyptian cuisine awaits visitors for lunch at this point. Visitors on the Coptic Cairo tour get to see the earliest significant Egyptian churches which include Babylon's historic Roman fortress alongside the Hanging Church Church of St. Sergius and the Ben Ezra Synagogue.

The Al-Hakim Mosque stands alongside medieval fortifications as pillars of the greatest Islamic neighborhood within Cairo. Your day tours will end with transportation back to your place of accommodation.
