Itinerary

Your exploration begins with a pickup from your hotel, where your Egyptologist guide will take you to the Egyptian Museum. Established in 1901 in downtown Cairo by Khedive Abbas Helmi II, this museum houses over 120,000 artifacts, making it one of the world's largest museums. It stands proudly overlooking Tahrir Square, a site of significant historical events in Egypt's recent history. The museum's two floors offer a journey through time, with the ground floor arranged chronologically and the second floor dedicated to the treasures of King Tutankhamun. Next, visit the Citadel of Saladin and the Mosque of Mohamed Ali. The Citadel, built by Saladin to protect Cairo from Crusader attacks, has been a pivotal site through Egypt's history, later becoming the seat of government. The mosque, built by Mohamed Ali, is a testament to the last royal dynasty of Egypt, marking a significant era in Egyptian history. Your tour then leads you to Old Cairo, where the confluence of religions has created a unique cultural landscape, home to historic churches and Roman sites. Enjoy lunch at a traditional restaurant in Old Cairo, adding a culinary delight to your historical exploration. The day concludes with a return transfer to your hotel, leaving you with a deeper appreciation of Cairo's historical wonders and vibrant culture.
