What makes Private Tour of the Egyptian Museum, Citadel and Coptic Cairo a unique experience ?
The tour kicks off with hotel pickup in Cairo or Giza, where your guide will accompany you to the renowned Egyptian Museum of Antiquities. This museum showcases an extensive collection of over 250,000 authentic artifacts, dating back 5000 years. Among its treasures is an exclusive exhibit dedicated to Tutankhamun, featuring gold, jewelry, and other precious items buried with him for over 3,500 years.
Following the museum visit, proceed to the Cairo Citadel, where you’ll explore the Alabaster Mosque of Mohamed Ali Pasha. Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant before continuing your tour.
The journey then takes you to Old Cairo, also known as Christian Coptic Cairo, a significant site visited by the Holy Family. The area holds spiritual significance, particularly in locations where the Holy Family sought refuge during their brief stay. Explore the Church of Abu Serga (St Sergius), built on the site where they took shelter. The district, including the Fort of Babylon, attracts pilgrims from around the world. Visit the Church of Abu-Sergah and St. Barbara, the Hanging Church, and the historic Ben Ezra Synagogue.
