Beautiful Islamic Sites in Egypt

Egypt’s Islamic Attractions show that Egypt was through a golden period of Islamic development when the rest of the world was drowning in the Middle Ages’ gloom. General Amr ibn al-‘as invaded Egypt in 641 AD and built a new city named Al-Fustat, which subsequently became Cairo, the eternal heart of Egypt and Islamic civilization for the following 1200 years. Cairo earned the nickname “City of Minarets” for having the highest concentration of mosques packed with exquisite Islamic architecture.

The city has served as an inspiration for many works of art, making it the most popular location for Egypt tours. All of Egypt’s Islamic landmarks represent the Islamic dynasties that governed Egypt at various times, including the Abbasid Dynasty, Fatimid Dynasty, Ayyubid Dynasty, Mamluk Dynasty, and Ottoman Empire.

All of Cairo’s one-of-a-kind historical attractions will demonstrate a new definition of beauty; all of Egypt’s Islamic landmarks feature a unique style of architecture found only in the Arab world, as well as a mesmerizing style of decoration in the form of hypnotic Quranic calligraphy written in gold.
The Islamic attractions in Egypt are countless!

Amazing tour to the pyramids of Sakkara and Dahshur

January 1, 2025

This week we had a great tour with Mohamed to the pyramids of Sakkara and Dahshur as well as Memphis. He tailored the tour to our preferences, took a lot of time with us and gave us detailed background information on everything. It was also great that he never tired of taking the time to answer our many questions.

You can definitely tell that he has studied Egyptology as he has a very deep understanding of the subject and can explain everything well. He also speaks perfect English and is really good driver.

We would definitely book a tour with him again in a heartbeat and would recommend him to anyone. 🙂

Amazing Egypt Fun Tours

Highly Recommend Egypt Fun Tours!

Several weeks ago, I reached out to Egypt Fun Tours regarding a 9-hour layover in Cairo. From the very beginning, Hani Ahmed was responsive and professional, quickly providing a well-organized itinerary tailored to our limited time. The itinerary included a visit to the pyramids, other historical sites, a delicious dinner, and even a quick stop for souvenir shopping.

Upon arrival, Gilman efficiently assisted us in obtaining our day tourist visas (note: $25 per person in cash). She then introduced us to our guide, Mydo, who was absolutely phenomenal! Mydo’s knowledge, friendly demeanor, and ability to adjust the tour to our pace made the experience unforgettable.

We returned to the airport with plenty of time to relax before our flight. The entire experience was smooth, stress-free, and incredibly memorable. Egypt Fun Tours offers reasonable prices for a private, customized experience that truly exceeds expectations. Thank you, Egypt Fun Tours! We will definitely use your services again in the future.

Alexandria! Wow!

November 7, 2024

Muhammad is the best! He showed me a world I never thought possible! The tombs in Alexandria by far was my favorite! I never knew there was a place on earth that contained both Greek and Egyptian carvings in the same tombs! The history and culture of Egypt is so fascinating! I highly recommend booking with Muhammad!
