During your visit, your private Egyptologist guide will explain the history of the synagogue, its role in the Jewish community of Egypt, and its importance as part of Old Cairo’s religious heritage.

Ben Ezra Synagogue is traditionally connected with older religious traditions and has been rebuilt and restored over time, with major history connected to the medieval period and later restorations.

Depending on the selected Cairo tour, the program can include the Giza Pyramids, the Great Sphinx, the Egyptian Museum, the Grand Egyptian Museum, the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization, Islamic Cairo, Coptic Cairo, Khan El Khalili Bazaar, Memphis, Saqqara, Dahshur, and other Cairo sightseeing sites.

Always check the tour inclusions before booking because each Cairo tour has its own route, duration, pickup time, entrance fees, meals, transport details, and airport pickup or drop-off options when required.

View available private Cairo tours here: Cairo Tours, Trips and Excursions.

Choose your Cairo tour based on the sightseeing sites you want to include and the time available. Classic Cairo tours usually include the Giza Pyramids, the Great Sphinx, and the Egyptian Museum or the Grand Egyptian Museum. Other Cairo tours can include Old Cairo, Islamic Cairo, Coptic Cairo, Khan El Khalili Bazaar, or the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization.

If you want to visit ancient sites outside central Cairo, choose a tour that includes Memphis, Saqqara, and Dahshur. These sites require more driving time than the main city tours, so the route and duration should be checked before confirmation.
