So it’s Eid and everyone you know is in Sokhna, Gouna or Dahab while you’re stuck here in Cairo. What to do? Where to go? Ugh. Worry no more as we round up a list of things that’ll make your Cairo Eid experience a whole lot better.
Make use of the empty streets and take an actual walk
Indulge in your favorite Thai curry at Maadi’s newly renovated Bua Khao
They also have booze. #JustSaying
Or enjoy the Instagrammable view of the Nile at the new Le Deck in Sofitel Gezirah hotel
Escape to the beach in Ain Sokhna for one day
You might be stuck in Cairo, but you can try to get away for a few hours.
And if you can’t, you can always have a pool day in Cairo
Watch the sunset on a felucca with friends
Go for Maadi’s feluccas because they’re much, much quieter than the Zamalek ones. You can also bring your own nibbles and drinks to enjoy with your squad.
Sleep! Get that much-needed sleep you’ve always wanted but never had time for
Go clubbing and lose yourself in the music at Cairo Jazz Club
Click here for a list of all their upcoming events.
Meet up with your family, get your mom a thoughtful 3edeya, put a smile on your grandma’s face and tell her you’re hungry
WE SAID THIS: But most importantly, do not stress out for being stuck in Cairo this Eid. Oh, and kol sana wento tayebeen.
