Hoogtepunten

Old Cairo is best seen on foot, in the narrow lanes where Egypt's Christian story has been kept alive for nearly 2,000 years. On this private walking tour your Egyptologist leads you through Coptic Cairo, the oldest Christian quarter in the country. You step into the Hanging Church, suspended over a Roman fortress gate, visit the church where tradition says the Holy Family sheltered, and see the Ben Ezra Synagogue, all within a few quiet, walkable streets. The pace is slow and the stories are the point. Comfortable shoes matter more than anything here. Lunch is included, and the route is gentle and mostly flat. Ideal for travelers who prefer atmosphere and history over a checklist, and who like to actually walk a place.

Route

  1. You enter through the old Roman gate of Babylon Fortress, its round towers still standing, and the modern city falls away. Your guide walks you to the Hanging Church, named for the way it hangs over the gate's passage, its wooden roof shaped like the hull of an ark. A few steps on is the Church of St. Sergius, built above the cave where the Holy Family is said to have rested, and the Ben Ezra Synagogue, one of the oldest in Egypt. Lunch at a local spot is included. Flat, shaded lanes make this an easy walk.

About Caïro

Caïro is de uitgestrekte hoofdstad van Egypte aan de Nijl, waar de piramiden van Gizeh samenkomen met moskeeën, bazaars en farao-schatten.

Aan de westrand van de stad rijzen de piramiden van Gizeh en de Grote Sfinx op uit het woestijnplateau, met de trappiramide van Saqqara en de ruïnes van Memphis verder naar het zuiden. De grote musea van Caïro, het Egyptisch Museum aan het Tahrirplein en het enorme Grand Egyptian Museum naast het plateau, bewaren voorwerpen uit duizenden jaren.

Top-ranked sights in Caïro: Egyptian Museum (Museum of Egyptian Antiquities), Saqqara (Sakkara), Khan El-Khalili.
