Overview of your Cairo tour:

Living in a city like Cairo with such a profound history and the overall realm of antiquity always gave me a sense of pride and fulfillment. I feel this history and the ancient people's practices, traditions, and knowledge have never been ruptured or uprooted , it's an ongoing practice and rather repetitive and consistent in our everyday lives. I can make you feel the pulsation of these practices and how lively they are in our everyday life. The concession of civilization had been passed throughout history since the earliest footsteps of the ancient Egyptians on the valley of the Nile, throughout kingdoms, the Greco Roman times, the Arabs, the Byzantines, the Copts, the Mamluks, and the Ottomans. The National Museum of Egyptian civilization introduces an enjoyable journey of empirical and experimental knowledge. Combining this visit with the exploration of Old Cairo and the Citadel of Saladin allows you to appreciate the continuity of Egypt's history and the convergence of cultures into one melting pot.
