Overview

Your experience begins in Old Cairo, the site of a city that pre-dated modern Cairo. Here you will see many historic churches and a Roman fort. As you move through the area, these surviving landmarks give a clear sense of the neighbourhood’s long history. You will then move to Khan El Khalili, Cairo’s old bazaar. Here you can explore the market area and take in the atmosphere of one of the city’s oldest trading quarters. The visit links the ancient settlement of Old Cairo with the commercial life of Khan El Khalili, showing two very different sides of the city's past.
