A Cairo Top Tours guide will meet you anywhere in Cairo or Giza to begin your Cairo Half Day Tours. Today, you will have the chance to experience one of our most enjoyable Cairo Day Tours. You will be transported by a private air-conditioned vehicle to the area known as Al-Moqattam Hills to start your Half Day Tour to the Cave Church of St. Simon the Tanner. St. Simon, also known as the shoemaker, became famous for the miracle of moving the entire hill from its original place, a miraculous occurrence that our personal Egyptologist guide will explain in detail.
The Monastery of St. Simeon al-Dabbagh in Al-Muqattam is considered one of the most important and ancient sites in Egypt, representing a rare architectural masterpiece unparalleled in the world. It is a tourist destination visited by Egyptians and foreigners alike.
Next, visit Garbage City in Cairo, one of the largest recycling centres where garbage is refined and repurposed for other industries. This unique area offers a tour experience unlike any other in Egypt. The monastery is an artistic masterpiece, skillfully carved into the rocks of the mountain. After finishing your Cairo Trip, you will be transferred back to any requested drop-off location in Cairo or Giza.
