About This Activity

Start your Private Day Tour in Cairo with a 9:00 AM pickup from your hotel by your expert guide. Your first stop is Old Cairo, also known as Christian Coptic Cairo, a significant site visited by the Holy Family. Here, you'll explore the historic Church of Abu Serga (St. Sergious), built over the cave where they took refuge.
This area, including the Fort of Babylon, is a revered pilgrimage destination for Christians worldwide, filled with an air of devotion and spirituality. Visit key Old Cairo Christian landmarks like the Church of St. Barbara and the iconic Hanging Church.

Next, continue your journey to the fascinating Cave Church of St. Simon. Carved into the Moqattam Mountain, the Monastery of St. Simon the Tanner features an impressive amphitheater with a 20,000-person capacity. Discover this unique site, one of Cairo's hidden gems, offering a blend of history and spirituality in an awe-inspiring setting.

Afterward, unwind with a peaceful Felucca Ride on the Nile, where you can soak in the stunning views of Cairo’s skyline. Whether you prefer the warm glow of the sunrise or the magical lights of the city at night, this serene experience is the perfect way to conclude your tour. You can also opt for a special celebration like a birthday party while sailing along the Nile.

Enjoy a delicious local lunch before returning to your hotel, wrapping up your unforgettable day in Cairo.
