After breakfast you will be picked up from your hotel by your guide and we will drive
towards the Old City of Cairo. Here we visit the Citadel of Saladin, the Alabaster Mosque and
the el Khalili Bazaar
Citadel of Saladin & Alabaster Mosque Citadel of Saladin is one of the few preserved
fortified complexes of the city of Cairo, only since about 20 years the citadel has been open to the
public. The construction of the citadel began in 1176 in order to better defend the city of Cairo against attacks
by the Crusaders. From here you can enjoy a fantastic wide view of
Cairo and in clear weather the pyramids can be seen on the horizon. Due to an explosion in
the powder warehouse of the citadel, the palace was destroyed in 1824 and no longer built,
instead Muhammad Ali began the construction of a large mosque in the Turkish style. The
walls of the mosque are covered with alabaster, which led to the name "Alabaster Mosque".
Afterwards we drive on one of the oldest roads in Cairo to the Kahn el-Khalili Bazaar.
Khan el-Khalili Bazaar is a bazaar in the old town of Cairo, where there are numerous
coffee houses and shops as well as traditional craft shops. Before visiting the Egyptian
