Tour itinerary:
Pick up at your hotel in Cairo by our representative & transfer by our modern & private air conditioned vehicle to the Valley of Natrun (Wadi Natrun in Arabic) which is located 100 km northwest of Cairo in the western desert. Wadi Natrun was of great importance to ancient Egyptians, for this was where they found natron, a substance that was crucial to the mummification process. Natron comes from large deposits of sodium carbonate that are left when the valley’s salt lakes dry up every summer. It is primarily known for its historic Coptic Christian monasteries. Visit to Deir Anba Bishoi (Monastery of Anba Bishoi), one of the most important monasteries in Wadi Natrun and has 5 churches, the main one is the Church of St. Bishoi that dates back to the 9th century BC.
