After breakfast at the hotel, you will meet your certified tour guide to start your Cairo Day Tour. After meeting your dedicated tour guide, your adventure begins in the Giza Plateau, home to the iconic Giza Pyramids, which include the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure.
Next, you will explore the Great Sphinx of Giza. The Great Sphinx is a huge limestone statue with a lion's body and a pharaoh's head. Old pharaohs constructed it to represent power and protect the Pyramids.
Then, we will head to the Grand Egyptian Museum. The museum houses a collection of Egyptian artifacts from various periods of Egyptian civilization.
As the sun sets, your historical journey continues with a visit to Coptic Cairo. You will visit the Hanging Church of the Holy Virgin Mary, built on the ruins of the ancient Roman fortress of Babylon. The church contains approximately 110 icons from ancient Christianity in Egypt.
You will also visit the Synagogue of Ben Ezra, which was once a Coptic church before becoming a Jewish synagogue during the Islamic era, and the Church of St. Sergius, which is located where the Holy Family sought safety while escaping to Egypt.
After completing your Cairo sightseeing tours, you will enjoy an Egyptian cuisine lunch at one of the best restaurants in the area before visiting the market in Khan El Khalili, one of the largest and oldest bazaars in the Middle East.
