First Day Visit to Giza Plateau & Egyptian Museum, Accommodation on a Nile Cruise with Party & Dinner

The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities - Situated in the heart of Tahrir Square, the Egyptian Museum (Museum of Egyptian Antiquities) has been a sanctuary for Egyptologists since its inception and houses some of the world’s most remarkable ancient artifacts. While some collections are being relocated to the new Grand Egyptian Museum, it remains a vital destination for anyone intrigued by ancient Egypt.

Pyramids of Giza - The Pyramids of Giza, including the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure, are among the most mysterious of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World—and the only one still in existence. These astonishing structures, over 4,000 years old, continue to uphold their legendary status. Visiting these 4th-dynasty pyramids and their iconic guardian, the Great Sphinx, majestically rising from the Giza Plateau, is essential for anyone traveling to Cairo—and is often the primary reason many travelers visit Egypt.

Great Sphinx - The 66-foot-tall (20-meter-tall) Sphinx of Giza is an emblem of ancient Egypt, igniting ongoing discussions about its purpose, age, and original creator. With the head of a human and the body of a lion, the Sphinx—one of the largest and oldest statues globally—is believed to symbolize strength, power, and wisdom.

Second Day in Cairo Visiting Islamic & Coptic Cairo

Sharia Al Mu’izz Li-Din Allah - Located in southern Cairo on the east bank of the Nile, Old Cairo, or Misr Al-Qadima, dates back to the sixth century BC and includes the sites of several early Egyptian capitals, including Fustat. Transitioning into Islamic Cairo to the east, its core is Coptic Cairo, which houses the remnants of a Roman fortress and several early medieval Coptic churches.

Hanging Church (El Muallaqa, Sitt Mariam, St Mary) - Dedicated to the Virgin Mary, the Hanging Church (Al-Muallaqa), still active today, is named for its position above the Water Gate of Roman Babylon. Steep stairs lead from the forecourt to a 19th-century façade topped with twin bell towers. Beyond this, a small inner courtyard is often bustling with vendors selling taped liturgies and videos of the Coptic pope, Shenouda III.

The interior of this church, dating back to the 9th century (some sources suggest the 7th century), has been renovated multiple times over the centuries. It features three barrel-vaulted aisles with wooden roofs. Ivory-inlaid screens conceal the three haikal (altar areas), while in front of them stands a fine pulpit, raised on 13 slender pillars symbolizing Christ and his disciples, which is used only on Palm Sunday. One of these pillars, darker than the rest, is said to represent Judas.

Synagogue Ben Ezra - The Ben Ezra Synagogue was originally a Christian place of worship known as El-Shamieen Church. According to legend, it was built on the very spot where Moses was found as a baby in his basket. However, when the Coptic Christians who owned the church could no longer afford the annual taxes imposed by the Muslim rulers, they were compelled to sell it. In 882 AD, it was purchased by Abraham Ben Ezra for 20,000 dinars and converted into a Jewish synagogue.

The synagogue became a significant gathering place for North African Jews during major festivals, and renowned rabbis visited to worship in Cairo. During a restoration in 1890, the most famous and diverse Geniza in the world was discovered in an empty space beneath the roof.
