day 1Cairo (arrival)
Welcome to Egypt! Upon arrival at Cairo International Airport, clear customs and collect your luggage. Our representative will meet you at the arrival halls and assist you with being transferred to your hotel. Cairo, dubbed Al-Qahirah in Arabic, is not only one of the largest cities in Africa with a population of 17 million, but the political and cultural center of the Arab World. The city’s old quarters retain their ancient charm with many streets known by descriptions given to them by medieval chroniclers. Modern Cairo’s architecture is distinguished by Ottoman and later European influences, especially in commercial architecture — particularly as the city’s population boomed during the 19th century.
