Itinerary

1. Day in Cairo

   • Meet your representative who will pick you up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza and transfer you to the Citadel of Salah El Din in Cairo, where you will visit Mohamed Ali Mosque that has been considered one of the most beautiful mosques in Cairo. It is also known as the Alabaster Mosque because its outer walls have been Covered by Alabaster Stone.
   • Then followed by another famous big mosque, Al-Rifa'i Mosque; the building is located opposite the Mosque-Madrassa of Sultan Hassan, which dates from around 1361, and was architecturally conceived as a complement to the older structure. This was part of a vast campaign by the 19th-century rulers of Egypt to both associate themselves with the perceived glory of earlier periods in Egypt's Islamic history and modernize the city.
   • Proceed to visit the biggest mosque in Cairo, e that is also known as `Madrasa El Sultan Hassan` that was founded by Sultan Hassan in 1356 A.D. The mosque was, for example, designed to include schools for all four of the Sunni schools of thought: Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanafi and Hanbali.
   • Drive to A'mr ibn Al-A'as Mosque in Cairo; it's also known as the mosque of most resplendent. Al-Mu'izz li-Din Allah of the Fatimid Caliphate commissioned its construction for the newly established capital city in 970. Its name is usually thought to allude to the Islamic prophet Muhammad's daughter Fatimah, a revered figure in Islam who was given the title Az-Zahrā the shining or resplendent one. It was the first mosque established in Cairo, which has since gained the nickname "the City of a Thousand Minarets.
   • End your day tour by spending a romantic and lovely time in Al Azhar Park, the highest point in Cairo, located in the heart of old historic Cairo and commanding a stunning panoramic view of the city while having your lunch.
   • Return to the hotel after your trip.
