2 Days Trip To The Grand Egyptian Museum From El Quseir By private Car

Start Day 2 with a hearty breakfast at your hotel in Cairo or Giza. Your private guide will pick you up from your hotel for a full day of cultural exploration in Old Cairo.

Your day begins with a visit to the Citadel of Salah al-Din, a historic Islamic fortress that offers stunning panoramic views of Cairo. Once the seat of Egypt’s rulers, the citadel is home to the Mosque of Muhammad Ali, also known as the Alabaster Mosque. Admire the mosque’s striking Ottoman architecture and learn about the historical significance of the citadel as a military and political center during the Middle Ages.

Next, head to Coptic Cairo to explore the Hanging Church (Saint Sergius and Bacchus). This ancient church, dating back to the 3rd century, is one of the oldest Christian sites in Egypt. Built above a Roman gate, the church’s unique architecture and rich history make it a must-see for anyone interested in Egypt’s Christian heritage.

After visiting these ancient landmarks, enjoy a delicious traditional Egyptian lunch at a local eatery. Relish the flavors of Egyptian favorites such as koshari, stuffed grape leaves, and moussaka, offering a great opportunity to recharge and savor Egypt’s culinary delights.

In the afternoon, head to the famous Khan El Khalili Bazaar in Islamic Cairo. This bustling market, which has been trading for centuries, is packed with vibrant stalls selling spices, handcrafted jewelry, textiles, and authentic Egyptian souvenirs. Wander through the maze of narrow streets, soak in the lively atmosphere, and pick up unique treasures to remember your trip.

At the end of your second day in Cairo, your private driver will transfer you back to El Quseir. Relax and reflect on the incredible history and culture you’ve experienced as you journey back to your hotel, concluding your unforgettable 2-day private tour of Cairo.
