“The Infinite Potential Tour to the ancient sites and temples of Egypt has fulfilled something very deep and beautiful within me. The right guides, people and energies coming together truly made this a trip that was ‘made in the stars’ … I’ve also never laughed so much. I am still integrating it all a month later.

“I wanted to say on behalf of all of us, that I hope that whenever you drink water that it revitalizes your body, mind and spirit. Same way our tears revitalize the temples. Very few people walking on this planet today will get to receive the incredible blessing that was stowed upon us. Whether our intellect will ever catch up is to be seen, but I know all of our hearts felt for a moment what it is to be held by the Neters. It’s it is truly something the love and hard work you’ve poured and dedicated your life towards something truly special. None of us could have found it without you. We will be forever changed for the better. And therefore, I will keep you in my prayers, for long life and honey in the heart as the author of that book likes to say.

DETAILED ITINERARY:

Day 01 Friday, November 7 Arrival in Cairo  

Arrival at Cairo International   Airport where we will have a representative inside the airport to greet you and assist you with obtaining your entry visa ($25.00 USD – please bring exact change), help you through customs, then transfer you to the fabulous 5-star Crowne Plaza Hotel in Giza. We will have a representative inside the hotel to assist you with the check-in process.

 We’ll meet in the lobby at 6 PM to be guided to our conference room for an introductory meeting.  Afterwards we’ll have our Welcome Dinner at a nearby restaurant.  Overnight, Crown Plaza, Giza (D)

Day 02   Saturday, November 8     Giza Plateau and Presentations by Veda and Patricia

After an early breakfast we’ll visit the Giza Plateau and explore the areas around the Great and Middle Pyramids. Though the three large Pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure are the most famous and prominent monuments at Giza, the site has probably been in use since pre-dynastic times.

Abd’el Hakim Awyan said that pyramids were once called Per Neteru, or ‘Houses of Nature or Energy’. Per Neter Het was a phrase that referred to the ‘place of the Per Neter’ and it was the place that was most significant. Site locations in ancient times were chosen for their powerful geomagnetic currents which enabled them to harness, amplify and radiate this extraordinary energy with the incredible structures they built on them.

No bodies were found in any of these pyramids and yet, the Great pyramid brilliantly encodes the fractal speed of light, the precise measurements of earth’s curvature and radius, the sun‘s radius, average continent height, average temperature of earth and other geological, mathematical and astronomical information. We’ll discuss the many theories of who built them, and when, and maybe more significantly, why?After lunch at the 9 Pyramids Lounge located on the Giza Plateau, we’ll return to our hotel for presentations offered by Veda and Patricia.  Evening free to enjoy the amenities at the hotel and outdoor mall. Overnight, Crown Plaza, Giza (B,L)

 Day 03-  Sunday, November 9    Valley Temple and Private visit between the Paws of the Sphinx
Breakfast will be served in the main restaurant from 6:30 AM to 10:30 AM. We will meet in the lobby of the hotel for our 10 AM departure. We’ll explore the Valley Temple before enjoying our Private visit between the paws of the Sphinx, said to be one of the most powerful spots on the planet.

Stand before one of the most iconic, ancient and sacred statues in the world!
The Sphinx has been said to represent the first breath of life on earth at the first time—or Zep Tepi.

Although many regard the Sphinx as the guardian of the Giza plateau, it is obvious that it also embodies a solar function. Was it carved in the Age of Leo? John Anthony West invited Geologist Robert Schoch to investigate the Sphinx enclosure for signs that it was much older than the proposed fourth Dynasty builders – as was first suggested by R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz. Robert Schoch’s geological investigation of the site confirmed this possibility, and he currently estimates that the Sphinx could be as much as 12,000 years old—or more.

Positioned to greet the first rays of the rising sun in the east at dawn, the Sphinx came to be identified as Horemakhet (Horus of the Horizon) or the Alignment. Associated with kings and kingship she sits on one of the most significant places on the earth that was once in a-lion-ment with a powerful geomagnetic current of fertility, resurrection and renewal that once spanned the earth.

Both Robert Bauval and Robert Schoch believe the Sphinx was a reclining lioness that represented an early dynastic goddess named Mehit, who was the consort of Anhur, a hunter god who represented Orion and who later evolved into Osiris. Ancient texts allude to a myth in which Anhur seeks and finds Mehit in Nubia and brings her to Egypt as his consort in a mythology that came to be known as the ‘Distant Goddess’ myth concerning the powerful Eye of Ra. The myth is very similar to later myths where the eye became associated with Tefnut, Hathor and Sekhmet.Indigenous elder, Abd’el Hakim Awyan held that the Sphinx was Tefnut -whose legend as the Eye of Ra speaks to powerful and eternal cycles of the breath of life itself. In the myth, she angrily flees a rich and lush Egypt when it falls out of Ma’at, or balance and goes to Nubia, leaving Egypt a dry and desolate desert. It is her brother, Shu and Thoth who are sent by Ra to cajole her to return and bring this powerful breath of life back to her homeland. Tefnut translates as ‘the spit of Nut (heaven), and she represents the watery waveform—that combines with her twin brother, Shu (air, wind and the solar wind) as the atmospheric life force that is able to separate heaven and earth and create life.

Known to be a place for great healing, we will have an hour to experience and explore the remarkable Sphinx enclosure.  Dinner on your own and free time this evening. Overnight, Crown Plaza, Giza (B,L)

Day 04 – Monday, November 10   Unas and Step Pyramid entries, the Sound Healing Hospital & Serapeum at Saqqara  

We’ll leave at 8 AM for our visit to Saqqara where we will explore several areas.  After a stop at the Imhotep Museum, we’ll enter the Unas pyramid, which contains the earliest known Pyramid Texts.

The Pyramid Texts are said to be magical writings to assist the Pharoah on his journey into the afterworld where he hopes to become an akh, or ‘light body’.  However, we’ll discuss how they are so much more, and contain formulas for moving between the physical and non-physical realms.  Afterwards, we’ll enter the South entrance of the newly opened Step pyramid.

We’ll visit the Sound Healing Hospital at the Heb Sed Court to experience the still active healing frequencies of this ancient site and discuss the many references to the importance of balancing the polarized energies within.  What does Imhotep represent – and how can we become architects of energy? The ancients understood that sustained healing requires more than a spontaneous cure for active symptoms.  It involves an interactive process in which the patient must also participate.  You will be guided through the Mirror, a ‘device’ that presents you with the opportunity to experience your own reflection– that can offer clues to aid in your journey back to Ma’at or inner peace.Another highlight of our day will be a visit to the newly opened Serapeum, a huge subterranean complex. A long hallway that runs in east/west directions is flanked by chambers that house gigantic, highly crystalline stone boxes that weight from 80-100 tons.  We’ll discuss all the possible theories as to when they were created and what they might have been used for at different times throughout Egypt’s history.
After a full day at the site, we’ll enjoy a traditional ‘home-cooked’ buffet lunch at the fabulous Blue Lotus Restaurant. Located on a farm near Saqqara, much of the delicious food we’ll be served is grown here or locally.  If we’re lucky we’ll see the now very rare blue lotuses blooming in the small pools located here.

If we’re lucky we’ll see the now very rare blue lotuses blooming in the small pools located here. Breakfast & Lunch included. Dinner on your own and free time this evening. Overnight, Crown Plaza, Giza (B,L)

Day 05 – Tuesday, November 11  Afternoon flight to Luxor and & Luxor Temple at Night

We‘ll check out of our hotel and have lunch before departing for our afternoon flight to Luxor.  In Luxor we’ll check into the fabulous Steigenberger Nile Palace Hotel situated on the east bank of the Nile River.

We’ll have time for shopping before we explore the mysteries of the enigmatic Luxor Temple at sunset.  

We’ll explore the mysteries of the enigmatic Luxor Temple in the early evening. Luxor Temple was once known as ‘the place of the First Occasion’, where the Neter (god) Amun experienced rebirth during the pharaoh’s annual reenacted coronation ceremony. Linked to Karnak Temple by an Avenue of Sphinxes marking what was once called ‘path of the god’, Luxor temple was the final destination where famous precessions from Karnak to Luxor temple took place to celebrate the annual Opet Festival.  The temple was once known as ‘Amun in Opet’ -or Amun on the horizon and this was a celebration of the fertility of land, Amun and the king as well as the deification of the king as the son of Amun. 

 After 15 years of intense study, Alchemist R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz wrote a book titled “The Temple in Man: Sacred Architecture and the Perfect Man,”   in which he explored the esoteric depth of ancient Egyptian philosophy, spirituality, mathematics, and science. Schwaller’s theory that the temple was designed to replicate all aspects of the male human body (body, mind and spirit), is well documented and has gained support from many researchers.  Overnight Steigenberger Nile Palace Hotel, Luxor  (B,L )

 Day 06 –  Wednesday, November 12   Temple of Hathor at Dendera

After breakfast, we drive to Dendera to visit the incredible Temple of temple at Dendera is one the most significant sites of Egypt and most elaborately decorated temple of its time.

Underneath the entrance gate into the Dendera complex is the only place you will see the underbelly of the winged scarab beetle. Indigenous wisdom keeper, Abd’el Hakim Awyan taught that this meant you would be entering a place that held the answers to all the mysteries of the universe.

Hathor tells us that she is the Alpha and Omega, all that is, all that was, and all that ever shall be.

We will be led on a journey of discovery within the Temple of Hathor that can change the way you perceive reality itself. Star maps depicted on the ceilings inside the first Hypostyle Hall, and the replica of famous Dendera Zodiac (the original is displayed at the Louvre in Paris) point to the ancient origins of astrology and superior knowledge of our universe.

John Anthony West once called this temple “the Womb of Time”.  Hathor, the Netert who personified motherhood, beauty, sexuality, love, joy, harmony, dance and music was known as the Lady of the Stars and symbolizes the womb that gives birth to our perception of time and space. As the ‘Eye of Ra’ she represents the nurturing rays of the Sun required for birth, growth and renewal as well as the fierce rays of the sun that destroy in order to provide a space for new beginnings.

The most distinctive parts of the temple are the fourteen crypts, of which eleven were decorated.  These areas were devoted to Lunar aspects of nature and their symbolism contains many keys to the ancient mysteries of Egypt.  Many of these formerly closed crypts were recently opened to the public.

The most famous crypt holds the famous ‘lightbulb’ imagery that actually speaks to the birth of the universe as a serpent representing watery waveform or Liquid LIght. These crypts were used to store cult equipment, archives and magical devices for the temple’s protection, however the most important object kept within them was a statue of the Ba of Hathor.  This hidden and most sacred icon was only brought out to receive the first rays of the Sun to celebrate the activation of the ‘rebirth’ of her son, or Sun as a new cycle of potentiality.

There is so much to experience within and around this magnificent temple that we dedicate an entire morning and afternoon at the site. We‘ll have a late lunch at Marsum on the West Bank of Luxor.   Overnight Steigenberger Nile Palace Hotel, Luxor (B,L)

 Day 07 – Friday, November 14   Esna, Deir el-Shelwit Isis temple & Colossi of Memnon

We’ll leave early this morning after breakfast for our drive to Esna to visit the extraordinary temple of Khnum.

Located on the west bank of the Nile about 34 miles south of Luxor, the temple of Esna was dedicated to the Neter Khnum, his consorts, the lioness Menhit and Nebtu, their son, Heka, and the great mother goddess, Neith. It contains a wonderful depiction of Khumn fashioning mankind on his potter’s wheel from the black earth or alluvial soil left on the riverbanks from the annual flooding of the Nile. What is the inherent message here? German and Egyptian researchers have done brilliant work in the restoration of the interior of this temple to its former glory. Known for its remarkable beauty and the magnificence of its architecture, this structure contains amazing astrological displays on its ceiling.

The solar, stellar and lunar depictions are some of the most fascinating symbolic imagery that we’ll see, comparable only to that of the temple of Hathor at Dendera. Patricia will speak about the implications of their significance, including the spectacular presentation of the waxing and waning stages of the moon that reflects the rising and falling of conscious awareness on the newly restored ceiling.

We’ll return to the west banks of Luxor and visit Deir el-Shelwit, an ancient Egyptian temple dedicated to Isis from the Greco-Roman period before enjoying lunch at the Al Moudira Hotel.

After a stop at the impressive megalithic Colossi of Memnon, we’ll enjoy a felluca ride back to our Hotel on the West Bank.  Time for optional shopping this evening. Overnight Steigenberger Nile Palace Hotel, Luxor (B,L)

 Day 08 – Thursday. November 13  Temple of Seti I at Abydos

We will leave directly after breakfast, at 8 AM to drive to Abydos for our visit the Seti I Temple.  We will discuss the significance of the symbolism as we experience the masterful craftsmanship of the beautiful depictions that cover the walls of the ancient Seti I temple that is dedicated to Osiris as well as the mysteries and implications of the Osiris ‘resurrection’ rituals that are illustrated throughout the temple.

Seti I  belonged to the new kingdom dynasty of Egypt, and managed to restore order in Egypt after the massive social upheaval caused by Akhenaten.  Coming from a military background, he managed to enhance Egyptian sovereignty through many military campaigns. Seti I was a powerful pharaoh and the founder of the Valley of Queens where his mother was buried.

The temple consists of a pylon, two open courts, two hypostyle halls, and seven shrines and features one of the ancient King’s Lists that contains the names of 76 Egyptian kings starting with Menes. 

Dedicated to Osiris, the ‘Lord of Abydos’, depictions honoring Seti I participating in ancient rituals that display profound symbolism and mysteries of the very ancient Osiris mythologies. The artistry and craftsmanship of the beautiful depictions that cover the walls of this temple are some of the most exquisite illustrations found in Egypt.

We’ll have private time in the Om Seti room. Dorothy Eady, later known as Om Seti, had memories of a past life as a young priestess in Abydos as well as encounters with Seti I that began after a near death experience as a child in the UK. Her incredible life story led her to work closely with E. A. Wallace Budge at the British Museum and she eventually became a renowned expert on Egyptology. Her past life memories were so profound that when she came to live in her beloved Abydos to work as a draughtswoman for the Department of Antiquities, she was able to find –and tell site excavators about many hidden places. Stories abound about her adventures here including powerful moments when she ‘fell through a portal in the ceiling of the temple’, walked through an underground shaft and finally exited from a well on the other side of the site.

Afterwards we’ll have lunch at the House of Life before returning to Luxor. Overnight Steigenberger Nile Palace Hotel, Luxor (B,L)

  Day 09 – Saturday, November 14   Karnak Temple

Optional Hot Air Balloon Ride

You will have the opportunity to enjoy an optional early morning Hot Air Balloon ride over the West Bank.  

Enjoy the surreal experience of floating over the valleys, temples and lush fields on the West Bank of Luxor on a sunrise Hot Air Balloon rise.  Catch the rays of the early morning sun as it illuminates your bird’s eye view of the Nile and surrounding area.After enjoying breakfast together, we’ll leave for our visit to Karnak. An avenue of ram-headed sphinxes leads us into the gigantic complex of Karnak temple dedicated to Amun, his consort Mut and their son, Khonsu. Karnak was known in ancient times as ‘The Most Select of Places’ (Ipet-isut) and was not only the location of the cult image of Amun and a place for him to dwell on earth but also a home for the many priests who maintained the temple and its rites.  A large and beautiful sacred lake exists in the middle, where priests would purify themselves before performing the temple rituals. Some say astrologers could trace the path of the stars on the still waters of the lake at night. Luxor temple has been called the Temple of Man, and many theorize that Karnak was once considered the Temple of the Universe. One of the greatest architectural marvels of Karnak is the huge hypostyle hall built during the Ramesside period in which 134 massive sandstone columns tower at 69 feet. Many obelisks decorate the site including the tallest obelisk in Egypt dedicated by the female pharaoh Hatshepsut.

Chapel of Sekhmet ~  She is alive…and has a message for you.We’ll visit the open-air museum followed by Private time (with tipping) with Sekhmet. The Ptah temple houses the Chapel of Sekhmet, home to one of the most ancient statues still standing in its original spot.  Sekhmet is the powerful lioness that represents the fierce rays of the sun, as well as the protective, healing and nurturing love of the mother.   She appears to many to be alive and can impart significant messages to those with eyes to see and ears to hear them.  Sekhmet personifies the solar rays that provide the electromagnetic energy required to sustain life and the earth’s grid.   Sekhem, means ‘power’ and Sekhmet is the magnetic spark of life force that provides the necessary energy to perform what we have been told are mystical, magical and powerful feats, including the healing of the physical body.  After lunch, we’ll enjoy Sunset sailing in a Felluca on the Nile.  Steigenberger Nile Palace Hotel, Luxor (B,L)

 Day 10– Sunday, November 15  Drive to Edfu 

We’ll depart early in the morning to visit the Temple of Horus at Edfu Located on a hill overlooking the Nile, the spectacular Temple of Edfu, or ‘the Place Where Horus Is Extolled’ was dedicated to Horus of Behedet and is one of the most well-preserved temples in Egypt and most impressive feats of construction completed during the Ptolemaic period.Embodying much knowledge and wisdom regarding many ancient mysteries, it was built during Ptolemaic times on a site of a far more ancient structure.  Edfu houses the famous Building Texts that are said to tell the story of ‘Zep Tepi’ or the first time.  There are elements within this temple that point to legends of Cataclysm, Atlantis, the Ark of the Covenant and tales of the Shemsu Hor, said to have been demigods that lived for 6,000 years between the reign of the gods and the first Pharaohs. Depictions of the ‘Festival of the Beautiful Meeting’ marking the celebration of annual reunion between Horus and his consort, Hathor decorate the walls.  The festival lasted 15 days from the arrival of the sacred statue of Hathor, which traveled by barge from Dendera to Edfu. Statues of both Hathor and Horus were reunited within the temple sanctuary, where Hathor was symbolically impregnated by her lover and returned to Dendera to bear their son.The inner sanctuary was the most sacred and important part of the temple that once contained the sacred images of Horus and Hathor that were used in their processions. A shrine, crafted of black granite, it is located in the Holy of Holies and is one of the few remains of an older temple of Horus attributed to Nectanebo II (360-343 BC).

We’ll check into our rooms at the Movenpick hotel and have a late lunch. Overnight, Movenpick (New Hotel) (B,L,D)

 Day 11 –  Monday, November 16    Optional early morning bus trip to Abu Simbel and Kom Ombo
We will depart early in the morning for those who wish to visit the fabulous site of Abu Simbel. The rest of the group will have the morning free, or take an optional trip to the Nubian Museum.

Optional trip to Abu Simbel will be offered early this morning. You will depart  on our air conditioned bus  to visit the site of the temples of Ramses II and his queen, Nefertari at the site of Abu Simbel on the banks of Lake Nasser. The two temples built into a mountainside at Abu Simbel are said to have been built by Ramses II early in his reign to celebrate his deification and right to rule around 1244 BC.  The temple anchors the southern border of Egypt’s expansion into Nubia, and was built to impress the ancient Nubians into accepting him as their divine ruler.

This monumental and majestic site is still an incredible sight to behold today. Four colossal statues (about 69 feet tall) of Ramesses II are seated at the entrance of the Great Temple which face east toward the rising sun—and in ancient times faced the Nile.  However, in an extraordinary feat of engineering, the temple complex was dismantled and rebuilt on a higher ‘constructed’ hill to make way for the Aswan High Dam in the 1960s in order to save them from being consumed by the waters of what is now called Lake Nasser, a reservoir that formed when the valley flooded.

Next, we’ll drive to Kom Ombo to explore the site that was dedicated to both Horus the Elder and Sobek, the crocodile Neter, was a devoted to powerful initiations and healing.This Ptolemaic temple, built over earlier structures has two identical entrances, hypostyle halls and sanctuaries, each honoring the roles of these powerful Neteru (gods) that relate to the awakening our senses and raising our levels of awareness. Significant evidence shows that the area has been settled since Predynastic times.

We will speak of the powerful initiations that were once practiced here, and how we can tap into the profound and self-empowering lessons experienced here by the ancients. 

Some have theorized that there were two groups of priests who separately tended to Horus and Sobek. The left side of the structure was devoted to Horus the Elder, relating to Lower Egypt and the right side of the building, associated with Upper Egypt was dedicated to Sobek, the crocodile Neter representing our digestion of things that no longer serve us.

There is a large well with a spiraling staircase descending into it which the indigenous claim was once filled with live crocodiles and used in sacred ceremonies of initiation.

We’ll see a remarkable depiction of Imhotep with various medical instruments that are recognized by medical practitioners today as well as an incredible depiction of the Neter Shu-Heh crowning images that depict  eternal  cycles  perceived  time.We’ll have lunch and return to our hotel. Overnight, Movenpick (New Hotel) (B,L,D)

 Day 12-  Tuesday, November 17 Temple of Isis at Philae  and  Flight to Cairo     

This morning we’ll visit the Temple of Isis, originally located upon the island of Philae, but was later moved to save it from flooding in the 1960’s when the Aswan dam was built.

Now sitting on the enchanting Island of Agilkia, the powerful site still marks a place where the Sun attains its greatest declination north and is directly over the Tropic of Cancer at noon on the Summer Solstice.  This moment was observed as the initiation of the ancient Egyptian New Year as well as the annual heliacal rising of the star, Sirius, which heralded the beginning of Akhet, the season of the flooding of the Nile.

Isis represented this highly revered star and its annual rising with the Sun was a time of huge celebration.  This alchemical marriage held the promise of renewal and rebirth as a ‘resurrection of Osiris’, her consort, who represented the land and its inhabitants.  Everyone participated in these ‘rebirthing’ celebrations, which lasted for 14 days. 

Isis, the goddess of magic and medicine– and mother of Horus is often depicted wearing the throne, or ‘seat of power’ as her crown, reflecting the matriarchal nature of very ancient times in Egypt.  They continued to hold a great reverence for the unconditional love, healing and nurturing power of the mother which she embodied.

After exploring the many aspects of this beautiful temple and island, we’ll take a motorboat to the equally sacred island of Bigeh where we’ll will enjoy a traditional Nubian lunch at the Solaih Nubian Restaurant.

After lunch, we’ll depart  for the Aswan Airport for our return flight to Cairo. Dinner on your own. Overnight, Crown Plaza, Giza (B,L)

Day 13 –  Wednesday, November 18  GEM Museum and  Private Entry inside all three chambers of the Great Pyramid     

We’ll leave after breakfast for our visit to the new Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM). The GEM, “the new crown jewel of Egypt”, will be one of the largest, most modern, and renowned museums in the entire world, housing artifacts from all over ancient Egypt, including the complete Tutankhamun collection. Many of the museums more than 50,000 pieces will be displayed publicly for the first time. Afterwards we’ll have a wonderful local meal together.

After lunch, we will have our Private Entry to the Great Pyramid from 5 PM to 7 PM. 

Our journey together will culminate with an incredible 2-hour Private visit inside the Great Pyramid. The King’s, Queen’s and Subterranean chambers will all be opened for us to experience and explore. The pyramid’s brilliant design elements combined with the consistency of the stones used to construct it have been said to create incredible fields of energy that can have a powerful impact on the physical, mental and spiritual bodies of anyone inside.   Scientist Phillip Callahan has purported in several books that the shape and use of paramagnetic stone enabled the ancient builders to capture and channel cosmic energy to create force fields for multiple purposes.  A recent study by the Journal of Applied Physics by Russian and German researchers has now confirmed that the Great Pyramid can produce electromagnetic energy in certain chambers of its structure. Researchers determined that when they are hit by radio waves, these phenomena occur in all three chambers.

The acoustic properties within the pyramid are phenomenal.  Indigenous knowledge holder Abd’el Hakim Awyan stated that the Giza pyramids are harmonic structures that benefitted from the combined use of sound, light and subterranean running water that created fields of force. He often said that: “Every chamber within the pyramid has a specific harmonic replicating the harmonics of the cavities of the human body. Sound healing techniques were then used to restore the patient’s body to the correct harmonics.”

We will have the opportunity to experience the powerful impact of harmonic resonance through our own vocal toning. It is an unforgettable experience that enables you become one with the Primordial. You can forget the chaos that no longer serves you and feel the bliss of a life lived in harmony.  If achieved, it is an experience that transforms your life forever.

Afterwards you will be transported to Cairo to check into your rooms at the Le Meridien Airport Hotel. Breakfast & Lunch included  Overnight, Le Meridien Airport Hotel, Cairo.

INSURANCE:

We are not responsible for any scenarios that are out of our control, including, but not limited to if you cancel the trip due to testing positive for COVID, if your international flight is delayed or rescheduled and you miss a day of the activities, or if you choose to not participate in any activity. Guests must have a good travel insurance policy to cover them for these instances. 

 We also recommend purchasing non-restricted flight tickets – which allows for cancellations and changes. Please send us your International Flight details once you’ve made them, to help us to arrange for your airport transfers within Egypt.  We will have a representative inside the Cairo Airport to assist you with obtaining your entry visa (for the cost of 25.00 USD per person), and through customs before transporting you to our hotel.
