This Cairo trip swaps the museum for the old heart of the city: you see the pyramids and the Sphinx and then the Christian and Islamic landmarks of Old Cairo.

The Giza plateau

Three stops: the panoramic viewpoint, the area between the pyramids of Khafre and Khufu, and the Great Sphinx, with free time to go inside a pyramid (separate ticket).

Old Cairo

  • The Hanging Church (St Mary) — in Coptic Cairo, built over two bastions of the Roman fortress of Babylon, so its nave seems to hang in the air.
  • The Mosque of Amr ibn al-As — the first mosque in Egypt and in Africa, founded in the 7th century and rebuilt many times.

Lunch at a restaurant is included.
