Landmark Event Centre
Cairo is one of the easiest cities anywhere for a Muslim business traveller: Egypt is overwhelmingly Muslim, so food is halal by default (no pork in mainstream kitchens) and mosques are on almost every street, with the adhan carrying across the city five times a day. The historic Al-Azhar quarter and Khan el-Khalili bazaar sit at the spiritual and commercial heart of the old city, while the Cairo Metro plus the Uber and Careem ride apps make the sprawling capital manageable between expo sessions.
Getting in
Cairo International Airport (CAI)
• Uber / Careem — 30-60 min to the centre (easiest and most predictable; book inside the terminal)
• Airport taxi — 30-60 min (agree the fare in advance or insist on the meter)
• Airport bus / shuttle — ~60-90 min (cheapest; slower and less direct)
Getting around
The Cairo Metro (three lines, with a new monorail and LRT expanding the network) is fast and beats the city's heavy traffic; buses and microbuses fill the gaps but are harder for visitors to navigate.
Buy a rechargeable Metro smartcard (or single-ride tickets) at any Metro station.
Uber and Careem are the simplest and most transparent option; with street taxis, agree the fare first as meters are often not used.
