Incredible Egypt Beckons!

Egypt is steeped in magic and mysticism... and in the bustling capital of Cairo, these stories come to life. It’s not everyday that you get an opportunity to experience a land where every tomb has a story that dates back to an ancient world, where every wall has a tale that takes you back in time and where one can easily find Greek, Roman, Arabic and French cultures blending... yet holding onto their distinct individualities.

The land of Pyramids, Cleopatra, Alexander The Great and The Pharaoh Tutankhamun... Egyptians have made every effort to keep their history alive. With fabulous hospitality and intriguing attractions, the mesmerizing land of Egypt has it all!

CAPTIVATING CAIRO 

As we arrived at Cairo Airport after a six-hour flight from Mumbai by EgyptAir, we were welcomed by Ismail Hamid, Egyptian Tourism Counsellor, and other representatives who happily transported us to our hotel – Ramses Hilton; facing the beautiful River Nile. As soon as we checked in, our coordinator gave us a quick brief about the place and we were ready to explore the wonders of Cairo.
