Black and white taxis are available from the airport to central Cairo. They leave from outside the Arrivals hall. Buses are available from the airport to central Cairo. An airport bus service operates from Terminal 1 (Old Airport). Bus service 400 leaves approximately every 30 minutes during the day and every hour at night. One of the best ways to explore Cairo is by the new Metro system. It is very inexpensive and not too crowded. However, buses and minibuses are still the most common form of transport for Cairenes, although taxis are often 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). |
