Ready, Set, Pack! To join us for all the events, we recommend...

Booking a 3 night stay in Cairo and checking in by December 30th

The wedding week will include various events, tours, and a New Year's Eve welcome dinner on the Nile hosted by the El-Nahas and Koehler families.

Transportation will be covered to/from most events if staying at the Marriott Mena House Hotel (main hotel venue) or the Steinberger Pyramids (2nd hotel option).

We know you won't be able to get enough of Egypt and highly recommend extending your trip to join us and explore the clear waters and colorful reefs of the Red Sea (Sharm El Sheikh) or if you're feeling more adventurous...taking a steamboat cruise down the Nile to stop at Abu Simbel, Luxor & Asswan..and more (for our favorites, just ask)!

Airbnbs & Cairo Traffic

Some words of caution...

Getting around in Cairo can be stressful & very challenging, which is why we highly recommend the listed hotel stays as opposed to Airbnbs/other hotels further out. Transportation to and from the events will be provided from the Marriott Mena House and listed hotels. Alas, if you still prefer to book an Airbnb or a hotel not listed on this site, we recommend you reach out to us before you book to ensure you are staying in a good area that is close to the venue.
