Coptic Cairo

Coptic Cairo
Stop: 3 hours - Admission included
After lunch visit Old Cairo, known as Christian Coptic Cairo. It is among the most important locations visited by the Holy Family, where the spiritual impact of their presence is most felt still, even though their stay was brief, for the Governor of what was then Fustat enraged by the tumbling down of idols at Jesus’s approach sought to kill the Child. They took shelter from his wrath in a cave above which, in later years, the Church of Abu Serga (St Sergius) was built. This and the whole area of the Fort of Babylon is a destination of pilgrimage not only for the Egyptians but for Christians from around the world. An air of piety and devotion pervades the whole district there. Also, there you will be able to visit and enter the Church of Abu-Sergah and St. Barbara, the hanging church, and the old Jewish synagogue – Ben Ezra Synagogue.

Diving into the crystal-clear waters of the cave was truly a mesmerizing experience, with the natural formations creating a surreal backdrop. The zip-lining through the lush park added an exhilarating touch, although I wish there had been a bit more time to fully soak in the scenery.

We had an absolute blast exploring the breathtaking caves and zip-lining through the treetops during our day out. The drive was smooth, and our guide shared fascinating stories that made the trip even more engaging for us as a family. One minor suggestion would be to add a little more time for the zip-lining, as we could have easily spent the whole day soaring through the park!
