Private Transfer From Luxor To Marsa Alam

Overview

On a tour of Cairo, the Cave Church in Egypt can be explored. This house of worship, also known as the Monastery of Saint Simon, is located in the Mokattam mountain and holds 70,000+ Christians during weekly services. It's one of the oldest Christian communities in the world and situated in an area called "garbage city" due to its large population of Zabbaleen -- descendants of farmers who migrated from Upper Egypt to Cairo looking for work during the 1940s.

In addition, Old Cairo is home to some of the earliest Christian churches from 300 AD, including Abu-Sergah and St. Barbara's hanging church and Ben Ezra Synagogue -- an old Jewish synagogue.
