Cần Quan Tâm
Coptic Cairo
Your tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza and head directly to visit the Coptic Cairo . Coptic Cairo is a unique area with Old Cairo that has a concentration of Christian churches and other sites that date from the centuries between the decline of the pharaonic religion and the arrival of Islam when Egypt had a Christian majority. Coptic Cairo is largely built around the fort of Babylon on upon the remains of its walls.
The Hanging Church
then move to visit The most famous site in Coptic Cairo is the Church of the Virgin Mary, better known by its nickname, the Hanging Church. This name comes from the fact that it was built atop the walls of the 4th century BC Roman fortress of Babylon, the remains of which are still visible about Coptic Cairo Although the effect is significantly diminished today by the fact that the ground level has risen over 30 feet over the centuries due to the accumulation of trash and dust, originally this church towered above its surroundings on the high walls of the fortress.

Coptic Cairo Excellence

5.00The tour was amazing! Marco was a knowledgeable guide whose English and sense of humor are maya maya (excellent). He is also quite patient. We saw the churches on Palm Sunday and the crowds were carrying or wearing palms. The history is fascinating. Mohammed, our driver, is a smiling, king of Cairo traffic, in our opinion.
Marvellous Marco delivers a trip to remember

5.00We had the most incredible experience in Cairo thanks to Marco, our outstanding tour guide, and his wonderful driver who made every journey smooth and comfortable. Our adventure began in Old Cairo, where Marco brought history to life. We visited the Hanging Church, one of the oldest churches in Egypt, beautifully suspended above a Roman fortress gate. Marco explained its significance to Coptic Christianity and pointed out its stunning wooden ceiling shaped like Noah’s Ark, a fascinating detail that really captured the children’s imagination. We then explored the Saints Sergius and Bacchus Church (the Cavern Church), built over the cave where the Holy Family is believed to have stayed during their flight into Egypt. Marco shared engaging stories that made the visit especially meaningful for the children. Another highlight was the Khanqah of Sultan al-Nasir Muhammad ibn Qalawun, a beautiful example of Islamic architecture. Marco briefly explained its purpose as a spiritual retreat for Sufis, pointing out its elegant domes and intricate stonework. These are truly must-see sites among other areas of Cairo which is rich in history, culture, and architectural beauty. The next day, Marco and our driver collected us from the hotel and took us to the breathtaking Pyramids of Giza. The detailed tour was exceptional we even went inside one of the tombs, which was an unforgettable experience! Marco shared incredible facts about how the pyramids were built, the pharaohs they were constructed for, and fun, fascinating details that kept the children completely engaged. They took so many photos, and thanks to Marco’s fantastic photography skills, we now have beautiful family pictures and lasting memories. We were treated to delicious falafel wraps, full of authentic Egyptian flavours. Marco made sure they were purchased from a clean, hygienic, and trusted place, and we were provided with cold water throughout the journey which were small details that made a big difference in the comfort of our trip. Our day continued at the Egyptian Museum, where Marco tailored the visit to exactly what we were interested in learning more about. Seeing the ancient artefacts up close consolidated everything we had learned and it was the perfect way to deepen our understanding of Egypt’s extraordinary history. To end our trip, we asked Marco to help organise a dinner cruise on the Nile, and he arranged everything seamlessly. We were collected from our hotel and driven to the boat for a magical evening on the river. The food was delicious, the entertainment lively and enjoyable, and standing on the top deck enjoying the scenic night views of the River Nile was simply unforgettable. It was the perfect, relaxing way to end our Cairo adventure. Marco truly made this trip enjoyable, educational, and memorable. The girls still talk about the holiday and all the fascinating facts they learned. We are already looking to book part two of our trip and will certainly be contacting Marco again. Highly recommended. An exceptional guide and experience from start to finish.
Great tour!
