      Cave Church, Garbage City & The City Of The Dead Tour

      visit The Famous Cave Church of St. Simon in Cairo There are seven cave churches carved into the nearby Moqattam Mountain. The Monastery of St. Simon the Tanner is the largest and has an amphitheater with a seating capacity of 20,000. It is worth a visit if you are interesting to see something different in Egypt. Then passing by the Garbage City in Cairo where it`s located in a very local neighborhood that calls Manshiyat naser, or โ€œGarbage City in Cairoโ€ as itโ€™s better known as, is a slum settlement located to the southeast of Cairo. Its inhabitants are affectionately known as โ€œGarbage Peopleโ€, because they have been sustaining themselves for decades as Cairoโ€™s unofficial sanitation crew. The Garbage People, comprising mostly Coptic Christians, first immigrated to Cairo in the 1930s in search of big city dreams and land under their feet. Being very poor, and without a solid 401k plan, they got by whatever way they could: living in makeshift housing and recycling the cityโ€™s compostable waste products by feeding it to their pigs. Today, Cairoโ€™s Garbage People make ends meet by going door to door to pick up peopleโ€™s trash for a nominal fee, which is then brought back to their Garbage City neighborhoods. There, they sort and recycle everything they could, using it for their own manufacturing. Then passing with The City of the Dead, which is an Islamic necropolis and cemetery below the Mokattam Hills in southeastern Cairo. Note: You will be Passing Through Garbage Place Without getting Off from the Car as the Place is almost Full of Garbage with very bad Smell that can cause diseases that`s why we created a passing through Trip because Customer`s Safety is our main Concern.
