Cairo Egyptian Museum and Old Cairo Private Full-Day Tour with Lunch

Overview

A visit to the Egyptian Museum and Old Cairo brings together two very different sides of Egypt’s past. At the Egyptian Museum you will see a collection of some 165,000 Egyptian artefacts. The treasures of King Tutankhamen are a central highlight: his six gilded coffins dominate the main hall, and his magnificent death mask is presented as the star attraction. Along the way you will see many other objects that illustrate Egypt’s long artistic and funerary traditions. Old Cairo is an atmospheric area where you will visit the Hanging Church and the Babylon Fortress. As you move through this neighbourhood, you will explore streets and sites that reflect the city’s layered history and religious heritage, with those two landmarks standing out as key points of interest. Together, the museum and Old Cairo offer a concentrated look at both the artefacts produced in ancient Egypt and some of the historic places that shaped Cairo’s later history.
