What you can expect

  • As soon as your cruise docks at the Alexandria port, welcome you with a Meet and Greet service, holding a sign with your name. You'll then be whisked away to Cairo in a deluxe, air-conditioned vehicle, a scenic drive of three hours, with stops as needed for rest.

    Your first stop is Coptic Cairo, a key destination for pilgrims and tourists, which marks a significant chapter in Jesus's early life.

    Here, you'll explore the historic Church of St. Sergius, where Mary, Joseph, and the infant Jesus took refuge in the Crypt, a Cave Sanctuary beneath, during their sojourn to Egypt to escape King Herod's persecution. Entering this sacred sanctuary offers a profound experience few have witnessed.

    Your journey continues to Salah el-Din Citadel, home to the city's most famous mosque - Mohamed Ali's Alabaster Mosque. From there, you'll visit Khan El Khalili and one of Egypt's oldest streets, “El Moez Le Din Allah” Street. This historic street is a living testament to Cairo's rich past, with massive monuments lining both sides, including Bab El Fetouh and Bab El Nasr.

    Venture towards the northern side of the city, in El Darb El Asfar, the oldest quarter of Islamic Cairo. Visit Barqouq Mosque & School, El Aqmar Mosque, the Mosque of El Saleh Tala, the Blue Mosque, the Dome, and the Hospital & School of Qalawoon.

    As the evening draws in, your guide will escort you back to your cruise at the port of Alexandria. This journey, steeped in history and spirituality, awaits you with Sun Pyramids Tours. Embark on this adventure and create memories that will last a lifetime!
