Hey all!
Heading off to Cairo on Wednesday
Its strange how slow the time passes when your waiting for something
Anyway i have a couple of questions and wondered whether anybody could help me out:
1) I was reading somewhere on the internet that all tourists need to register with the police when they arrive in Egypt, although if you go with a tour agency this will be dealt with by them so i wonder if anybody on here has gone on a flight without actually buying a package holiday etc because im actually going to stay with relatives.
2) I was wondering if theres anywhere in Cairo where i could watch football particularly the celtic - spartak moscow match, The thing is im also planning on going to alexandria for a few days also so any help for either city would be greatly appreciated because i can begin to think about missing the match
Thanks all
Can't help with Cairo or Alexandria, but you don't actually have to register with the police. All you do is fill out the landing card that the airline give you and hand that in when you go through passport control.
This registration procedure no longer applies. It has been discontinued since a few years now.

It looks as of this match will not be seen here in the middle east at all.
good to know that the registration with police is no longer needed, less hassle
As for the game, I too checked the link and like you say it seems that it will not be shown in the middle east but im living in the hope that Aljazeera Sport buy the rights for the match because from my own experiences i have noticed the the website liveonsat only put the channels that have the match confirmed and i have noticed that Aljazeera Sport and also ART sometimes dont put out the matches they will be showing until a few days before.......
So if you could point me in the right direction for any sports bars etc where european football is shown, I would be much obliged....
I am going to be staying in 6th October City.....
Thanks
6th October City.... I hardly know anything over there - have nt been out there in years. But I am sure quite a few of the cafes in Mohandiseen would show ART matches, as they do in Heliopolis. Philies in Mohandiseen, Grand Cafe ( such as in Maadi or on the Nile at Giza, etc etc. ). If you are British you could suddenly join the BCA - they have a branch in Mohandiseen ( google for their website ).
Thanks for the reply swisssinai, it was very helpful, I had a look at the BCA website and its very interesting.
