EgjugCon1 Hotel and Travel
We are planning to make the JDC at one of the best Hotels in cairo like City Stars Intercontinintal or Semirames.
The speakers and visitors should know the hotels most suitable and near to the conference place. We will make a short list of hotel with all information about them and add it to the travel & hotel page. We should look for discount from the hotels whchi we will add links to them.
We need the same with the air lines. For example France Air or Biritish Airways or Qatar Airways.
We will make a toursit program for the speakers after the conference day. Visit Pyramids and other places. We should prepare a page with those places + photos for those places.
If some company can arrange all this staff and pay us, it will be nice.
