Done entirely on foot — several hours on uneven paving and through crowded bazaar lanes, with few places to sit along the way.
About this tour
Cairo's oldest layers, on foot rather than from a car window — Al-Azhar Mosque and the medieval alleys of Islamic Cairo in the morning, then the walled Coptic Cairo quarter in the afternoon, including the Hanging Church and the Ben Ezra Synagogue, before finishing at Khan el-Khalili as the bazaar comes alive in the evening.
