The experience

Overview

Discover Manshiyat Nasser (commonly known as Garbage City) on this private half-day tour with an Egyptologist guide. The residents of this slum settlement, found on the fringes of the Mokattam Hills, collect garbage from Cairo and transport it back to their community, resulting in mountains of trash. The inhabitants, who are mostly Coptic Christians, also built the biggest Christian church in the Middle East: the Monastery of St. Simon or Cave Church.
