Yes, Egypt is generally safe for tourists, especially in major destinations like Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, Alexandria, and the Red Sea resorts (Sharm El Sheikh, Hurghada, Marsa Alam). The Egyptian government has significantly invested in tourist safety with enhanced security at airports, hotels, and tourist sites.
The current regional tensions do not affect tourist areas, which remain calm and welcoming. Like in any country, travelers should stay informed, follow local guidelines, and avoid restricted zones (e.g., borders with Libya or remote desert areas without a guide).
Egyptians are known for their hospitality, and tourism is a major part of the economy—so visitors are genuinely welcomed.
The best time to visit Egypt is from October to April, when the weather is cooler and ideal for sightseeing.
October–November: Perfect for Nile cruises and desert tours; warm days and cool evenings.
December–February: Peak season. Great for visiting pyramids and temples, but can get crowded.
March–April: Excellent weather continues, and it’s less crowded.
Summer (May–September) can be extremely hot, especially in Upper Egypt (Luxor, Aswan), but coastal cities like Hurghada and Sharm el Sheikh are still pleasant due to sea breezes.
Most travelers need a tourist visa to enter Egypt.
e-Visa: Available online for citizens of over 70 countries via the official Egypt e-Visa Portal. It’s valid for 30 days.
Visa on Arrival: Available for certain nationalities at major airports (Cairo, Hurghada, Luxor) for $25 USD (single entry).
Embassy Visa: Required for some countries not eligible for e-Visa or VOA.
Always check your nationality’s requirements before traveling.
Egypt is a conservative Muslim country, and modest dress is appreciated, especially in public and religious places.
For women: Loose clothing that covers shoulders and knees is recommended. A scarf for mosque visits is useful.
For men: Avoid sleeveless shirts and short shorts in cities.
At beach resorts (like Sharm el Sheikh and Hurghada), Western-style clothing and swimsuits are fine.
Comfortable walking shoes, sunglasses, a hat, and breathable fabrics are essential for exploring.
It is not recommended to drink tap water in Egypt. While it’s treated and safe for locals, it may upset the stomachs of visitors unaccustomed to it.
Drink bottled water, which is widely available and affordable.
Avoid ice in drinks unless you are certain it’s from purified water.
Use bottled water even for brushing teeth if you have a sensitive stomach.
Egypt’s official currency is the Egyptian Pound (EGP or LE).
Cash is king in many places, especially small shops, markets, and remote areas.
Credit cards (Visa, Mastercard) are accepted in hotels, upscale restaurants, and major shops, especially in cities.
ATMs are widely available. It's best to withdraw Egyptian Pounds locally.
Tip: Avoid changing too much money at the airport for poor rates; use banks or official exchange offices.
While it’s possible to visit sites independently, a licensed Egyptologist guide is highly recommended for:
Deep historical context that brings ancient monuments to life
Easy navigation of large sites like the Pyramids, Karnak, and Valley of the Kings
Handling logistics and avoiding tourist traps
Enhancing safety and overall experience
Most luxury and private tours (like with Your Egypt Tours) include expert guides for all major destinations.
Here’s a practical packing list for Egypt:
Lightweight, breathable clothing (linen or cotton)
A scarf or shawl (especially for women entering mosques)
Comfortable walking shoes
Sunscreen, sunglasses, hat (the sun is strong year-round)
A small daypack for excursions
Hand sanitizer, tissues, medications (including for digestion)
Swimwear if heading to the Red Sea
Copies of passport, visa, and travel insurance
Adapters for Type C or F plugs (European standard) may be needed.
Egypt is a treasure trove of ancient wonders and natural beauty. Don’t miss:
The Pyramids of Giza & Sphinx (Cairo)
Egyptian Museum (Cairo) – home of Tutankhamun’s treasures
Khan El Khalili Bazaar (Cairo) for souvenirs
Luxor & Karnak Temples and Valley of the Kings (Luxor)
Abu Simbel Temples (Aswan)
Nile Cruise between Luxor and Aswan
Red Sea resorts (Hurghada, Sharm el Sheikh) for snorkeling and diving
Alexandria for Greco-Roman history and Mediterranean charm
Egyptian cuisine is flavorful, hearty, and vegetarian-friendly. Must-try dishes include:
Koshari – a local favorite of lentils, rice, pasta, and tomato sauce
Ful medames – mashed fava beans with olive oil and spices
Taameya (Egyptian falafel), grilled meats, and fresh pita
Molokhia, stuffed vine leaves, and shawarma are also popular
Street food can be delicious and safe if you choose busy, clean stalls with high turnover. For sensitive stomachs, it’s best to stick with restaurants or ask your guide for trusted local eateries.
Viajar nos ha ayudado a entender el significado de la vida y nos ha ayudado a ser mejores personas. Cada vez que viajamos, vemos el mundo con nuevos ojos.
Absolutely mind blowing. A definite must see. We flew from Aswan after I contact them, as I did not want to sit in car for hours with my 10-year-old daughter. Just so much history and ancient love. You cannot miss this one thing if you are in Cairo. The rocks are just HUGE, so special.
I recently traveled with my wife, daughter, son in law and two grandsons (ages 4 and 2). We had a private tour experience. From the moment we landed at the airport on our arrival to the day we left we were treated with the utmost care and attention
Our trip to was wonderful. The accommodations and travel was seamlessly arranged by customer service rep, Mona, and we visited so many of the famous Egyptian antiquities. I would not have done the trip without the very knowledgeable guides, Ashraf and Mamdouh
