We will be with you every step of the way, from the moment you step off the plane until you exit the gate, where the driver will meet you and take you on this journey. We begin with a visit to the Hanging Church, which is significant because it was the first papal seat in Cairo. We will not be in Coptic Cairo and miss visiting Abu Serga, which has a very specific location among the rest of the Coptic churches, because it is connected to the Holy Family's journey in Egypt.
Our last destination in this area will be the monastery of Ibn Azra. Ibn Azra lived between 1092 and 1167 and was one of the most famous Jewish scholars and writers of the Middle Ages. Before moving on to Islamic Cairo, we will complete our cultural journey by sampling dishes from this society's cuisine. Discover Egypt's most famous main dishes with us.
We will tour Salah al-Din Castle, one of the historic military castles, which is distinguished by its important strategic location. The castle of Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi has not been spared from historical events, from the Ayyubid era to the end of the Muhammad Ali dynasty. Explore these events with us and let your imagination run wild.
Before returning to the airport, Khan Al-Khalili will be the last destination on this trip. The Khan bears the title Al-Khalili in reference to Sultan Jaharkh Al-Khalili, one of the Mamluk sultans of the Jarkas dynasty, who founded it in 1382 AD. Buy souvenirs from there.
