On that marvelous Plateau, you will be astonished by the master pieces; the Three Pyramids; Greatest among them is "Khufu" or "Cheops" then "Chephren" or Khafraa & "Mykrenus" or "Mankaraa"; well known to be constructed of over 2 million stone blocks.  Watch "The Guardian Sphinx"; a chef-d'oeuvre, limestone statue that reveals a true symbol of wisdom & strength.

Day 3

Your tour begins with a visit to the largest Islamic University in the World, this is located in the Al Azhar Mosque. The area is known as the center of knowledge and is home to the Mosque of Imam El Hussein, the Grandson of the Prophet Mohammed. The mosque is considered the holiest Islamic site in Egypt and can accommodate up to 30,000 people. Close to the Al Azhar Mosque you will find the Saida Zeinab Mosque, she was the granddaughter of the Prophet Mohammed. From here we head to the Imam El Shafi Mosque. Imam El Shafi was one of the founders of the four schools of Islam and for followers of Imam El Shafi this is considered one of the most important sites. We then make our way to the Honoured Street of the Prophets family where the Mosque of Saida Nafisa is located. Saida Nafisa was also the granddaughter of the Prophet Mohammed. There mosques are all located in Old Cairo and no tour to this part of the city would be complete without a visit to the mighty Citadel of Saladin. It is here that we visit the Alabaster Mosque of Mohammed Ali which is built on one of the highest points in Cairo, offering views across the whole city. When returning to our hotel in the afternoon you have the option of a visit to the Khan-El-Khalili bazaar.
