Coptic Cairo Tours from the Airport
Start your Coptic Cairo Tour directly from the airport, taking the opportunity to explore the historical area of Old Cairo during your layover. Meet our knowledgeable Egyptologist guide from Cairo Top Tours, who will escort you to visit the Hanging Church of the Holy Virgin Mary, also known as Al-Mu'allaqa in Arabic, which means "the suspended" due to its unique location between two towers on the southern gate of the Roman Fortress of Babylon.
Next, visit the Coptic Museum, home to some of the earliest manuscripts and icons in Christian history. Continue to the Synagogue of Ben Ezra, one of the oldest Jewish temples in Cairo, dating back to the 9th century AD, which was originally a 4th-century Christian church before being repurposed.
After completing your Coptic Cairo Tour, you will be transferred back to Cairo Airport by our expert Egyptologist guide.
