Islamic Cairo offer One Day Private Cairo Tour

I will pick you up (8:30 AM) and begin your guided tour in Islamic Cairo.

We start at the Citadel fortress with a visit to the Mohammed Ali Mosque (the alabaster mosque). We should say Masjid, not Mosque, Masjid is the right word here. The Citadel was built by Salah-El-Din in the 12th Century.

Our next stop is The masjid of Sultan Hassan, built between 1356 and 1363, and is believed to be one of the finest examples of Mamluk architecture in Cairo. The masjid is also considered one of the largest, not only in Cairo but in the whole Islamic world.

Then we will visit The Refa'i Masjid, located next to Sultan Hassan Mosque, constructed in two phases over the period between 1869 and 1912 when it was finally completed.

In the afternoon we will have our Lunch.

The day ends with a visit to the masjid of Ahmed ibn tulun. Built on Mount Yashkur, Ibn Tulun's mosque was the focal point of the Tulunid capital that lasted only 26 years, the masjid is among Cairo's most visited Islamic monuments and one of its earliest.
