Later, you will be transferred to your hotel, where you can spend the rest of the day at leisure-cum-spotting time in Cairo on your own.
Breakfast at the Hotel Cairo is served. Get going along a scenic route towards Alexandra. You will be starting sightseeing in the city with Kom El-Shoqafa Roman Catacombs, Pompey's Pillar, and the stark Citadel of Qaitbay.
