Highlights
  • National Museum of Egyptian Civilization NEMC - The day begins at 8:00 am with a pickup from your hotel by a tour guide to start your full-day tour of the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization. The main exhibition hall showcases the four primary crafts that shaped Egyptian civilization: pottery, wood, textiles, and ornaments. Here, you can see the world’s oldest prosthetic toe, a skeleton dating back 30,000 years, the Kaaba Cover (Kiswaa Al Kaaba) which was the last one made in Egypt during President Nasser’s time, and the Mahmal, which was used to carry the cover from Egypt to Saudi Arabia annually in a grand parade. Additionally, you can view the Kaaba key and the Clepsydra, an ancient time-measuring device. The royal mummies, which were moved in a royal parade from the Egyptian Museum to the Civilization Museum, are also on display.

  • Cairo Citadel - Visit one of Egypt’s oldest citadels, built by Salah El Din El Ayoby. Here, you will also visit and enter one of Egypt’s most beautiful mosques, the Mohamed Ali Mosque, also known as the Alabaster Mosque due to its alabaster stone covering. The Great Mosque of Muhammad Ali Pasha, or Alabaster Mosque, is situated in the Citadel of Cairo and was commissioned by Muhammad Ali Pasha between 1830 and 1848.

  • Old Cairo - Next, visit Old Cairo, also known as Christian Coptic Cairo, one of the most significant locations visited by the Holy Family, where their spiritual presence is still strongly felt. Here, you can visit and enter the Church of Abu-Sergah and St. Barbara, the Hanging Church, and the old Jewish synagogue, Ben Ezra Synagogue.

At the end of the tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel.
