In the Footsteps of the Holy Family Tour

In the Footsteps of the Holy Family Tour, reconnects your faith as you retrace the steps that the holy family took. Visit the churches that now stood in place of the ruins that welcomed the family.

 


 

In the Footsteps of the Holy Family Tour lets you rekindle your faith through various churches in line to visit.  And be amazed how these churches offer a piece of art worth seeing.  From your hotel in Cairo, you will be assisted by our representative to visit Mary Guirguis Church in Belbais via air-conditioned car.  The transfer takes about 2 hours, so the trip starts at an early hour in the morning.  This is the first stop of the tour In the Footsteps of the Holy Family.

 

For your next stop, the Virgin Mary Church at Ein Shams Mataria.  Then have a glimpse of the Monastery of Catholic nuns at Mataria. Visit the St. Serge Church (Abu Serge) in Babylon Forteress, El Moalaka. Next is the St. Barbara Church in Old Cairo.  And finally a church built that shows dedication for Virgin Mary, the Virgin Mary Church at Maadi.  This was also the place where the holy family started their journey by boat to Upper Egypt.
