Note: Please. take a taxi from the drop-off point to your hotel, It is
recommend that you book a hotel in Giza
Recommendation: It s recommended that you spend the night at the
International Hot Spring Hotel***, but it is of course possible to book the

you continue to Wadi Hitan. You may also consider another night of camping on
the second day rather than returning directly to Cairo. |
