Explore Egypt’s ancient capital with Four Seasons Hotel Cairo

As the sun gets brighter and the nights get longer, summer in Cairo is the ultimate opportunity to wake up every day and marvel at views of the legendary Nile and magical Cairo’s skyline. Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at Nile Plaza makes for the perfect starting point to experience what Cairo has to offer this summer.

The hotel is offering the “Stay Longer — Fifth Night “Free” package to explore this vibrant city. Guests can also enjoy a 15 percent discount on the room rate when staying for two or more nights.

From centuries-old museums and galleries to landmarks and music concerts, the concierge team at Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at Nile Plaza, shares their favorite things to do this summer in the vibrant city:

Cairo’s 1,000-year-old market, Khan El-Khalili

Few places in Cairo can match the energy of the Khan El-Khalili market, especially in the evenings when the entire area is lit up with colorful lanterns. Guests can explore historical architectural marvels, mosques, hand-crafted souvenirs, tucked-away famous cafes and authentic nooks. 

Distinctive Mediterranean cuisine at Bullona Cairo 

With a vibrant ambiance and sleek, modern design, Bullona Cairo restaurant offers a memorable dining experience in the heart of Cairo at Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at Nile Plaza. 

Fascinating palaces

When summer weather strikes, guests can take activities indoors while exploring Cairo’s lavish palaces — from the masterpieces at Princess Aisha Fahmy Palace and the luxurious Manial Palace that tell stories of botanical eloquence and architectural grandeur, to Amir Taz Palace, Abdeen Palace and many more examples of Cairo’s more recent history.

Relaxation at the spa

A hot summer day in Cairo is just the perfect time to set the mood for well-being at Four Seasons Spa — an oasis of peace with treatments designed to prep and prime guests to soak up that warm summer sun while reviving some of the pharaoh’s beauty secrets.

Beating the heat with a cooling dip

One of the best things about Cairo is the long morning hours. Guests can take advantage and escape the heat into one of three rooftop swimming pools at the hotel. 

A day with the pharaohs 

Home to the world’s most extensive collection of ancient Egyptian antiquities, the 107-hall Egyptian Museum features an incredible 160,000 objects on display with artifacts spanning 5,000 years of the pharaonic era. 

Eight dining experiences

Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at Nile Plaza is a destination in itself. The hotel features eight dining experiences offering diverse, authentic cuisines including Egyptian, Italian, Mediterranean, Chinese and international, all served alongside panoramic views of the Nile. 

A sunset felucca picnic 

A felucca is a traditional wooden sailing boat that was used by the pharaohs throughout history and is definitely a must-do while in Cairo. The boat will carry guests on a smooth sail across the Nile against the backdrop of Cairo’s landmarks. This experience begins just a few steps away from Four Seasons Cairo at Nile Plaza.

Skiing

Egypt’s first snow park, Ski Egypt, is the perfect fun destination for all ages. The park offers a snow-filled winter wonderland all year round, with activities from skiing and slope snowboarding to sledding and sliding.

A private in-room stage to discovering Cairo

With a bird’s-eye view of the River Nile up to the Cairo skyline and some of the city’s most renowned landmarks, guests will love waking up to the colorful scenery from their private in-room terrace at Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at Nile Plaza. It is the perfect start to a day full of adventures in Cairo.

ITC Infotech accelerates Vision 2030 through digital hub in Riyadh

ITC Infotech’s commitment to delivering real digital change in the Middle East is reinforced by strengthening collaboration and working more closely with customers on the ground. The establishment of its Digital and AI Engineering Hub in Riyadh brings superior digital engineering and AI skills closer to businesses, allowing for speedier collaboration, localized innovation, and solutions targeted to regional needs. This strategic expansion aligns with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 and underscores ITC Infotech’s long-standing emphasis on partnership-led growth and customer-centric innovation.

The hub was officially inaugurated on Jan. 15 by Sanjiv Puri, chairman and managing director of ITC Ltd. This facility is designed to help enterprises leverage advanced technologies and convert digital ambitions into measurable business outcomes. This move aligns closely with Saudi Arabia’s efforts to build a knowledge-driven economy powered by innovation and technology.

Saudi Arabia’s digital leap

Vision 2030 is more than just economic diversification; it is a clear blueprint for creating a technologically advanced society. This vision is centered on the integration of artificial intelligence and digital engineering, which are transforming industries and enabling long-term, sustainable growth. The strategic importance of AI is clear, with the Saudi Data and AI Authority estimating that it may add $135 billion to the Kingdom’s GDP by 2030. This commitment is supported by significant investments, including $14.9 billion announced at LEAP 2025 to advance digital infrastructure, talent, and next-generation technologies, as well as historic projects like the $2.7 billion Hexagon Data Center in Riyadh. Together, these efforts are laying the foundation for a secure, resilient, and future-ready digital ecosystem that can support AI adoption, data-driven governance, and smart city development at scale.

What the hub offers

ITC Infotech’s Riyadh hub is designed to fuel this momentum by focusing on three core areas:

  • AI-powered platforms: Delivering predictive analytics, intelligent automation, and data-driven insights to help businesses transition from reactive operations to proactive strategies.
  • Digital engineering solutions: Leveraging Industry 4.0-driven smart manufacturing capabilities, integrating AI-led modeling, connected systems, and advanced analytics to optimize production performance, improve asset utilization, and proactively reduce operational and quality risks across the engineering lifecycle.
  • Cloud-native architectures: Building agile, secure, and resilient ecosystems that enable faster innovation and seamless integration across enterprise systems.

These capabilities are designed to enable organizations to innovate, scale, and compete in a rapidly evolving digital economy. Beyond technology, the hub is fundamentally anchored in building a team of the region, from the region, for the region and for global impact. Through structured skill-building programs, deep partnerships with academia, systematic knowledge transfer, and immersive, hands-on delivery models, the hub is creating a future-ready Saudi workforce fully aligned with Vision 2030 and capable of serving both national and international priorities.

Driving enterprise transformation 

The ITC Infotech hub aims to enable transformation rather than simply deploy technology. By driving AI adoption, accelerating digital engineering, and building cloud-native ecosystems, ITC Infotech seeks to help businesses:

  • develop new business models to meet evolving market needs.
  • improve operational efficiency through predictive insights and automation.
  • support sustainability goals by optimizing resources and reducing risks.
  • build a skilled local workforce capable of leading future innovations.

These outcomes support enterprises as they transition to more resilient, data-driven, and digitally mature operating models.

The road ahead

ITC Infotech is a wholly owned subsidiary of ITC Limited, one of India’s largest conglomerates, with over 25 years of experience as a trusted technology services partner to enterprises globally. The company focuses on next-generation enterprise transformation, delivering services across infrastructure and application modernization, cloud, cybersecurity, digital engineering, and AI-led innovation.

As Saudi Arabia continues its digital journey, ITC Infotech’s combination of global expertise, strong local presence, and collaborative delivery model positions it as a long-term partner in advancing Vision 2030. ITC Infotech’s hub in Riyadh reflects this commitment, bringing advanced capabilities closer to customers, investing in local talent, and enabling enterprises to adopt AI at scale as they compete in an increasingly digital world.
