Tag 01 City Tour to Saladin Citadel, El Moez Street, and Khan El Khalili Bazaar

Happy Egypt Tour guide will meet at the reception of your hotel and start your tour to Saladin’s Citadel. The Saladin Citadel is the most visited Islamic spot in Cairo. The citadel was built during the time of Saladin in Egypt (1176–1183). The main purpose was to defend Cairo, so it was built in a very strategic position. During the 19th century, Mohamed Ali built his popular mosque there, which is known as the Mohamed Ali mosque.

El Moez Street was named after the Caliph Al-Muizz, and its ruins date back to the Fatimid, Ayyubid, and Mamluk eras, making it a witness to the splendor of the civilizations that flourished during that period. On a tour of Islamic Cairo, you can explore historic buildings and mosques that display the greatest diversity of medieval architectural riches within the Islamic world.

Khan el Khalili is the largest bazaar and market in the Middle East. It represents the market tradition that established Cairo as a major trade center. Khan was located in the middle of Cairo, and some commercial establishments were built nearby. There is a big collection of shops, workshops, and coffee shops.

We took a ride in the village of Slavia, but I couldn't find an option to review this activity
Because it is temporary so I found this company on the Internet, customer service staff is good, but the only US is not enough is that he can only brush cards online can not pay cash, hope to have the option of paying cash

We had a great afternoon
Leading our guide Ahmed people are good, we because of the previous trip delayed time, let him wait for us a while on the boat, up to the boat to discover the entire boat only us, he also gave us water and drinks, we saw the sunset on the boat to take pictures very carefully, the road Ahmed like we told the surrounding view, some understand some not understand, but this is the charm of travel
Finally arrived at the place where Ahmed was very good to support us in the upper edge, the youth who carried the rope was also reassured to give us, but there was no stubborn edge in the back of the supervision, on the road we would run for a while and walk very self-sufficient, in his body we were afraid and excited, and finally walked into the village of slavery, we went to eat slavery bread with black sugar and adult food, that servant and our soy milk taste super like soy milk, also drank black tea, because Arab coffee is interested so we also tried, the taste is very special. Finally we went to the school in Slavia for a class, really a classroom, we quickly learned some Arabic and Slavic, really too hard, but very happy, if not to rush back and gather, really want to slow down the whole village
