- Our guide will pick you up at 8:00 am from your hotel to visit Old Cairo, known as Christian Coptic Cairo, which is among the most important locations visited by the Holy Family where the spiritual impact of their presence is most felt still. However, their stay was brief, for the Governor of what was then Fustat, enraged by the tumbling down of idols at Jesus’ approach, sought to kill the Child. But they took shelter from his wrath in a cave above which, in later years, the Church of Abu Serga (St Sergious) was built. This, and the whole area of the Fort of Babylon, is a destination of pilgrimage not only for the Egyptians but for Christians from around the world. An air of piety and devotion pervades the whole district there.
- Then, you will be able to visit the Church of Abu-Sergah and St. Barbara, the hanging church, and the old Jewish synagogue – Ben Ezra Synagogue.
- Take your delicious lunch and then continue to visit the Citadel of Cairo, where you can visit the most famous mosque in Cairo, which is Mohamed Ali`s mosque, known as the Alabaster Mosque.
