What makes Private Egyptian Museum and Old Market Tour in Cairo a unique experience ?
Begin your tour with a pickup from your hotel in either Cairo or Giza by your knowledgeable tour guide. The first stop is the renowned Museum of Egyptian Antiquities, commonly known as the Egyptian Museum or Museum of Cairo, located in Cairo, Egypt. This significant museum boasts an extensive collection of ancient Egyptian antiquities, totaling 120,000 items, with a notable portion on display while the remainder is kept in storerooms. Constructed in 1901 by the Italian construction company Garozzo-Zaffarani, based on a design by the French architect Marcel Dourgnon, the edifice stands as one of the largest museums in the region. Although the museum has been accessible to the public since March 2019, it is set to be succeeded by the new Grand Egyptian Museum at Giza in 2020.
Explore the historical wonders of Coptic Cairo, which encompasses the Babylon Fortress, the Hanging Church, the Greek Church of St. George, and numerous other Coptic churches and historical sites. According to Christian tradition, this area was visited by the Holy Family, who stayed at the site of Saints Sergius and Bacchus Church (Abu Serga). Coptic Cairo served as a stronghold for Christianity in Egypt until the Islamic era, though most of the current buildings of the churches in Coptic Cairo were constructed after the Muslim conquest of Egypt in the 7th century.
Conclude your tour at the renowned Khan el-Khalili, a famous bazaar and souq in the heart of Cairo, Egypt. This bustling bazaar district serves as a major attraction for both tourists and locals alike. It also houses various Egyptian artisans and workshops engaged in the production of traditional crafts and souvenirs. The tour concludes with a drop-off at your hotel in Cairo or Giza.
