Extra Nights

Many guests like a night or two either side of the tour, to shake off the flight before it begins or to leave without rushing at the end. We can arrange both, and you do not need to decide now.

  • Before your tour Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at The First Residence The same hotel your package already uses, so you arrive, settle in, and start the programme rested rather than straight off a long flight.
  • After your tour Le Méridien Cairo Airport Hotel Only a few minutes from the terminal, for a flight home that leaves late in the evening or early the next morning.

How it works. Book your package here on this page first, in full. Then simply write to us with the nights you need and who they are for. We will confirm availability and send you a secure payment link covering the extra nights only.

One unbroken stay. We attach the extra nights to the reservation that is already inside your package, so the whole stay becomes one continuous booking. You keep the same room throughout. There is no checking out and back in, no repacking, and no second arrival at reception.

Would you rather book it yourself? That is completely fine. Because we hold contracted rates with both hotels, arranging the nights through us is usually the better value, but the choice is entirely yours. Just tell us what you have booked and we will ask the hotel to merge your reservation with ours, so your stay is still uninterrupted.
