Koptisch Caïro en de grotkerk: privédagtour

So let me start by saying I’m one of the easiest reviews you’ll ever have. I try to be patient and kind because I know that people generally work hard and it always can be challenging with language and cultural differences to create a good experience. Having said that, this truly was the worst tour I have ever had in any country on any topic. My son and I wanted to learn about the Coptic period and this full day schedule of 4 holy sites, and some lunch looked great. Almost immediately after booking, I received confirmation from Sun Pyramid tours that they received the order. - The pick up was

The cave church (and the journey up there) was amazing! The hope that the zabaleen have is contagious. We had a good time with our guide, Shereen. She was knowledgeable and pleasant. The guide in the cave church was Magdy and he was wonderful as well. Old Coptic Cairo was also beautiful and interesting, but the cave church was hard to beat.

The highlight of our day was not on the agenda but we all loved the new National Musuem of Egyptian Civilization. Our guide Dalia was passionate and knowledgeable and we enjoyed the Coptic churches and the drive to the cave church though the recycling centre.

To see the churches and learn more about the history was inspirational. To see their persecution was humbling.
