The flight to Cairo was fairly empty and went by fast. We were met by Mr. Mohammad of Sita World Tours who lead (and sped) up our movement through immigration, customs and before we knew it we were moving through the streets of Cairo.

Our hotel is on the banks of the Nile and we scheduled the next two days as down time, a little rest before we get busy.
