- Coptic Cairo - The guide will collect guests at 9:00 AM from their hotel to explore Old Cairo, also known as Christian Coptic Cairo. This area is one of the most significant sites visited by the Holy Family, where their spiritual presence is still strongly felt. Although their stay was brief, as the Governor of what was then Fustat sought to harm the Child due to the falling idols at Jesus’ approach, they found refuge in a cave. Later, the Church of Abu Serga (St. Sergius) was constructed above this cave. This entire area, including the Fort of Babylon, is a pilgrimage site for Egyptians and Christians worldwide. The district exudes an atmosphere of piety and devotion.
- Hanging Church (El Muallaqa, Sitt Mariam, St Mary) - Visitors can also explore and enter the Church of Abu-Sergah and St. Barbara, as well as the Hanging Church.
- Synagogue Ben Ezra - The Ben Ezra Synagogue, sometimes called the El-Geniza Synagogue or the Synagogue of the Levantines (al-Shamiyin), is located in the Fustat area of Old Cairo, Egypt. According to local legend, it is the site where baby Moses was discovered.
- Cave Church - Guests can then visit the renowned Cave Church of St. Simon in Cairo. There are seven cave churches carved into the nearby Moqattam Mountain. The Monastery of St. Simon the Tanner is the largest, featuring an amphitheater with a seating capacity of 20,000. It is a worthwhile visit for those interested in experiencing something unique in Egypt.
