Driving Directions - Sofitel Le Sphinx Cairo
|
|
Black and white taxis are available from the airport to the hotel and cost approx. 10 US dollars. Limousines cost approx. 25 US dollars and leave from outside the Arrivals hall. An airport bus service operates from Terminal 1 (Old Airport). One of the best ways to explore Cairo is by the inexpensive Metro system. Buses and minibuses are still the most common form of transport, although taxis are a better option for visitors. Boats depart frequently for University, a landing over on the Giza side of the river. Every second boat continues south to Manial, Rhoda, Giza and Masr al Qadima (old Cairo).

| Testimonials: Why use Hotel Planner? |
"Our group has done this weekend away for 10+ years always in the Napa/Sonoma area in the Spring. For the past 3 years we have stayed at the same location in Sonoma. This year I used your site to try to find a different and more reasonably priced location. Not only did I find a fantastic hotel in a great new location, I save $100 per night over last year's room fee." J.F. - San Francisco, CA
"It was great. I ended up booking my meeting with the best bid, that I wouldn't have received if it wasn't for you." C.C. - New York City, NY
