Private Egyptian Museum Mohamed Ali Mosque and Old Cairo Tour

Overview

You will spend a day exploring Cairo’s rich past, beginning with the Egyptian Museum where you will encounter exhibits on Ancient Egypt. In the museum you will see displays that illustrate the civilisation’s history and culture, and you will gain a clearer sense of Egypt’s ancient heritage. After the museum, you will visit the Salah El Din Citadel and the Mohamed Ali Mosque. As you move through these historic sites, you will experience key landmarks of Cairo’s urban landscape. The tour also includes Old Cairo, the city that pre-dated Cairo, where many historic churches and Roman sites remain. Along the way you will explore different layers of the area's history, from ancient objects in the museum to the architectural and religious landmarks found in the Citadel, the mosque and Old Cairo’s older neighbourhoods.
