Step into the storied past of Cairo with this immersive full-day tour, an ideal choice for travelers eager to explore the city's rich religious heritage. Beginning at 8:00 am, your experienced guide will collect you from your hotel and lead you through both Christian and Islamic sites that have shaped the city's identity. In the ancient district of Old Cairo, also known as Christian Coptic Cairo, you'll visit the revered Church of Abu Serga (St. Sergious), the spiritual heart of the area and a pilgrimage site for Christians worldwide. The spiritual journey continues as you enter the Hanging Church, the Church of St. Barbara, and the historic Ben Ezra Synagogue, all within the atmospheric Fort of Babylon. A delicious lunch at a local restaurant provides a break between sightseeing, allowing you to savor Egyptian flavors before continuing to Islamic Cairo. Founded in 641 A.D. by Amr Ibn Elas, this district is home to some of the city’s most impressive mosques. Explore the Amr Ibn Elas Mosque, the grand Sultan Hassan Mosque, and the architecturally striking Al-Rifa’i Mosque, set amidst public squares with European influences. Your exploration of faith and architecture culminates at the Citadel of Cairo, where the iconic Mohamed Ali Mosque—known as the Alabaster Mosque—stands as a city landmark. Before returning to your hotel, wander through the lively Khan Khalili Bazaar, a hub for traditional crafts, jewelry, and souvenirs. Throughout the tour, you'll enjoy expert commentary and gain insight into Cairo's exceptional fusion of religious traditions. The unique selling point of this tour package is its in-depth focus on both Islamic and Christian landmarks, offering a comprehensive look at Cairo’s diverse spiritual history in a single, well-paced day. Whether you are a history enthusiast or a culturally curious traveler, this full-day trip through Islamic and Christian Cairo delivers a rewarding and enlightening experience.
