Early in the morning after breakfast, check out, then our tour guide will pick you up to start your tour by visiting the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC), the first of its kind in Egypt and the Arab world. It presents the full range of the richness and diversity of Egyptian civilization throughout the ages, from prehistoric times to the present day by focusing on its continuity and stability as demonstrated by its tangible and intangible heritage. The museum’s exceptional collection includes the royal mummies, which are exhibited in a new interactive display using 21st-century, cutting-edge technology to go beneath the wrappings and reveal their secrets. It also sheds light on the rituals and religious beliefs surrounding mummification in ancient Egypt.

Then drive to the Cairo Citadel, which was built by order of King Saladin. It was the largest fort and castle of the medieval period, covering 153,000 square meters. It was built between 1176 and 1183 CE to protect Cairo from the Crusaders, only a few years after defeating the Fatimid Caliphate. Saladin recycled the stones of the Giza Pyramids to finish as fast as he could. It was used as the royal court from Al-Nasir Muhammad ibn Qalaoun until Muhammad Ali Pasha in 1807 CE. Muhammad Ali built two great palaces, Salamlik and Haremlik, and one of the masterpieces of Turkish mosques in the world, the Muhammad Ali Alabaster Mosque, between 1828 and 1848 CE, perched on the summit of the Citadel.

After that, discover Coptic Cairo, which is a part of Old Cairo and encompasses the Babylon Fortress, the Hanging Church, the Greek Church of St. George and many other Coptic churches and historical sites. It is believed in Christian tradition that the Holy Family visited this area and stayed at the site of the Church of Saints Sergius and Bacchus (Abu Serga). Coptic Cairo was a stronghold of Christianity in Egypt until the Islamic era, though most of the current church buildings in Coptic Cairo were built after the Muslim conquest of Egypt in the 7th century.

After that, have your lunch at a good-quality restaurant 

 

After finishing, return to Port Said, according to the cruise ship schedule.
