Sites
Description :
Old or Coptic Cairo, Egypt
Some Egyptologists believe that there was a settlement here as far back
as the 6th century BC. Later, the Romans built a fortress here which
we call Babylon. Some of these Roman walls still exist. Later, it became
a Christian stronghold, with as many as 20 churches built within an
area of one square mile. There are only five remaining, but these are
certainly a must see when visiting Cairo, along with the earliest Mosque
ever built in Egypt. In addition, after the fall of Jerusalem in about
70 AD, the area also saw an influx of that religion into the area, where
the oldest synagogue is also located.
In
Old Cairo we will also visit the Hanging Church (El Muallaqa, Sitt Mariam,
St Mary) derives its name from its location on top of the southern tower
gate of the old Babylon fortress (in Old, or Coptic Cairo) with its
nave suspended above the passage (Muallaqa translates to 'suspended').
It is the most famous Coptic Christian church in Cairo, as well as the
first built in Basilcan style (possibly). It was probably built during
the patriarchate of Isaac (690-92), though an earlier church building
may have existed elsewhere dating as earlier as the 3rd or 4th century.
However, the earliest mention of the church was a statement in the biography
of the patriarch Joseph (831-49), when the governor of Egypt visited
the establishment.

El Khalili in Islamic Cairo
I'd
say this is the best tourist market in Egypt. The atmosphere of the
market certainly has some life to it. Narrow streets, medieval gates,
Smoky cafes, and Mosque minarets towering above certainly give this
part of Cairo a more authentic feel.

Private Cruise ship Shore excursions: Egypt , Greece & Turkey
The
cruise regular shore excursion are generally a good introduction to
the city, most of the seasoned cruise travelers prefer to go sightseeing
with a private guide.
The
difference between ship organized and private tours is best described
as "package versus tailor-made." Some people may feel all
right joining a large tour group whereas sometimes it is difficult to
hear the guide and the group moves only as fast as its slowest participant.
Others
may not get their questions answered at all as there may be twenty other
people in the group trying to do the same.
In
contrast, a small tour group with tailor-made program is way more enjoyable
and ensures personal attention for everyone. You will spend as much
time as you want.
Therefore,
if you want to maximize your limited time, the private escorted tour
tailored to your unique wishes and interests is an ideal solution.
All
our private shore excursions tours are carefully designed to give you
the best possible experience. Our knowledgeable, friendly and qualified
tour guide and driver will ensure that your visit ashore is truly memorable.
