Overnight in Cairo

Egyptian Museum – A Journey Through Ancient Treasures
Begin your day with a guided visit to the world-famous Egyptian Museum, opened in 1902 and home to one of the most extensive collections of ancient Egyptian artifacts. Housing tens of thousands of pieces, the museum offers a journey through Egypt’s long and fascinating history.

With your Egyptologist guide, focus on the most important highlights and masterpieces spread across its various halls.
Visit the Tutankhamun Wing on the first floor, showcasing his magnificent treasures. This extraordinary collection—dominated by gold artifacts, statues, furniture, and funerary objects—occupies a significant section of the museum and represents one of the greatest archaeological discoveries in history.
After the guided tour, enjoy some free time to explore at your own pace. You may also choose to visit the Royal Mummy Room (optional, with extra ticket) for a closer encounter with Egypt’s most famous pharaohs.

Old Coptic Cairo – A Sacred Heritage
Continue your tour with a visit to Coptic Cairo, one of the most spiritual and historically rich districts in the city. This sacred quarter is home to 14 churches and a historic Jewish synagogue, reflecting Egypt’s deep religious heritage and tolerance.

Begin at the Hanging Church, dating back to the 5th century and dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Built over one of the towers of the Roman fortress of Babylon, this church is renowned for its 110 exquisite icons and once served as the seat of the Patriarch.
Next, visit the Church of St. Sergius and Bacchus (Abu Serga), also known as the Cavern Church. This sacred site is believed to be where the Holy Family—Virgin Mary, Joseph, and the infant Jesus—took refuge for three months during their flight into Egypt. Thousands of pilgrims come here every year to connect with this remarkable biblical history.
Conclude your exploration with a stop at the Ben Ezra Synagogue, Cairo’s oldest Jewish temple. Named after a Jerusalem merchant, this synagogue stands as a symbol of Egypt’s religious diversity and was once the center of a thriving Jewish community.

Return to Hurghada
At the end of this enriching cultural and spiritual journey, you will be transferred to the airport for your flight back to Hurghada.
