Itinerary

Morning Pickup & Coptic Cairo Tour with Nut Travel

Start your Coptic Cairo day tour with a convenient morning pickup and meet one of our exceptional Egyptologist guides. You’ll explore the captivating Coptic landmarks of Old Cairo, including:

The Hanging Church: Known as the Suspended Church, it was built atop the Roman fortress's southern gate. With a unique roof resembling Noah's Ark, this church served as the residence of the Coptic Patriarch from the 7th to the 13th centuries.

Ben Ezra Synagogue: Dating back to the 9th century, this synagogue occupies the remains of a 4th-century Christian church. Said to be where the prophet Jeremiah gathered the Jews after the Jerusalem Temple’s destruction, it was later restored by Abraham Ben Ezra in the 12th century and became a repository of North African Jewish history.

Lunch Break Enjoy a delicious lunch at a local Cairo restaurant before continuing the tour.

Abu Serga Church: Believed to be the site where the Holy Family rested after their journey into Egypt. This church has hosted numerous Coptic patriarchs, highlighting its historical significance.

Virgin Mary Church: Located in Haret Zuweila, this church is believed to date to the 10th century, though some inscriptions point to its consecration in the 12th century. It served as the seat of the Orthodox Pope of Alexandria from 1400 to 1520 AD.
