Fly from Riyadh to Cairo with Etihad Airways
Book flights from Riyadh to Cairo and swap the cultural capital of Saudi Arabia for ancient Egypt.

From world-famous museums to beautiful architecture, plus outstanding restaurants, Cairo is simply waiting to be discovered.
Flying from Riyadh to Cairo: FAQs
What is the best way to get from Cairo Airport to the city centre?
Perhaps the easiest way to reach the city centre of Cairo from the airport is to travel by taxi which takes around 30 minutes. These are readily available outside of the terminal, but it’s essential to know the difference between the two options. White taxis have metres, but the old black and white ones don’t, so a price will need to be negotiated before the journey.
Alternatively, organise an airport transfer with Etihad before you fly, and your onward travel to your hotel will be waiting for you at the airport when you arrive.
What is the best way to get to the pyramids of Giza?
There are several ways to reach the pyramids of Giza, the simplest being by taxi – whether a classic taxi or using a taxi app. Another option would be to hire a private guide and driver, but this costs considerably more. A great option between the two would be to book onto a tour as they often leave from Cairo and include other attractions.
