Important Travel Tips

1- Visa
Travelers to Egypt generally require a tourist visa. Many visitors can obtain a 30-day visa on arrival at the airport for approximately $25 USD, provided their passport is valid for at least six months beyond the arrival date.

2- Safety
Security is visible at major tourist sites, often including police and military presence. Organized tours commonly provide representatives to assist with airport transfers and travel logistics.

3- Culture & Dress
Egypt is a conservative country. Modest clothing is recommended, and public displays of affection are generally discouraged.

4- Health
Drink bottled water rather than tap water and consider travel insurance that includes medical coverage and evacuation if needed.

5- Money
The local currency is the Egyptian Pound (EGP), though US dollars are widely accepted in many tourist areas. Tipping is a common part of the culture, so carrying small bills is helpful.

Egypt tourist visas are typically issued for a 30-day stay, with a 90-day validity window from issue date. Extensions can be obtained from the Mogamma building in Cairo's Tahrir Square or from Passport and Immigration offices in other cities. Extensions cost around 200–300 EGP and extend the stay by another 30 days. Multiple-entry visas (valid 6 months) are available online for frequent visitors.

October to April is the best period to visit Egypt — temperatures are comfortable (15–28°C), crowds are manageable outside peak Christmas/New Year weeks, and prices are 20–30% lower than peak season. March–April is the sweet spot: warm but not hot, post-winter crowds, and lush Nile vegetation. Avoid June–August when temperatures in Luxor and Aswan exceed 40°C — heat makes sightseeing grueling.
 

 A minimum of 10–14 days is recommended to experience Egypt meaningfully: 4 days Cairo and Giza, 4 days Upper Egypt (Luxor/Aswan), 2 days Nile cruise, and 2–4 days at the coast or desert. Shorter trips (7 days) work if focused on Cairo and Luxor only. Budget travelers often spend 3–4 weeks to include the Western Desert oases and Red Sea.
