ITINERARY

Have breakfast at the hotel then start your tour with a visit to the Citadel of Saladin & Mohamed Ali Mosque. The Citadel is a medieval Islamic fortification. Located on Mokattam hill near the center of Cairo, this ancient building was once famous for its fresh breeze and grand views of the city. It is now a well-preserved historic site, with mosques and museums. The Citadel contains the Mosque of Muhammad Ali which was built between 1828 and 1848, perched on the summit of the citadel. This mosque was built in memory of Tusun Pasha, Muhammad Ali’s second son who died in 1816 and dually represents his efforts to erase symbols of the Mamluk dynasty that he replaced. Proceed to Mosque of Sayedah Zainab Mosque, and Makam Ibn `Ata’ Allah al-Iskandari afterward, before heading to Cairo airport for your flight home.
