Egyptian Museum, Citadel, and Old Cairo Discovery

Your tour representative will pick you up from your hotel for a visit to the Egyptian Museum, one of the most interesting museums in the country, featuring artifacts from the Pharaonic period. The museum displays a rare collection spanning 5,000 years of art and is considered home to the largest and most precious collection of Egyptian art in the world. More than 250,000 remarkable artifacts are exhibited here, including a section dedicated to Tutankhamun's treasures, gold, and jewellery, which remained enclosed in his tomb for over 3,500 years before its discovery in the 1920s during the excavation.

Then proceed to visit the Mohamed Ali Alabaster Mosque inside the Citadel of Salah El Din. Lunch will be served at a local restaurant.

Afterward, continue to Coptic Cairo to visit the Hanging Church, Ben Ezra Synagogue, the Church of St. Barbara, and the Church of Abu Serga. Later, you will be transferred back to your hotel.
