Our Evaya Getaways qualified Egyptologist guide will pick you up from your hotel by A/C vehicle and accompany you on a visit to the fabulous Egyptian Museum, which houses artifacts from the Pharaonic period. Here, you will be able to view the wonderful Tutankhamun collection of treasures. We will then proceed to Salah El Din Citadel, a medieval Islamic fort. Next, we’ll visit the Mohamed Ali Mosque, the most noticeable mosque in Cairo, featuring twin minarets built in memory of his oldest son. Our journey continues to Old Cairo to visit The Hanging Church, known for its steps leading up, hence its name, the Staircase Church. You can also see the Abu Sirga Church, reportedly built on the site where the Holy Family rested, adorned with scenes of the life of Christ and the Virgin Mary. Now it’s time to enjoy the hustle and bustle of the colorful Khan El Khalili Bazaar and shop until you drop. After these fabulous tours, enjoy a comfortable drive back to your hotel.
This was one of the outings I was looking forward to most, so my expectations were fairly high. I appreciated being able to ask questions without feeling that I was holding everybody up. I would have liked a slightly longer pause towards the end, but overall a lovely experience.
