Do I need a visa to enter Egypt?

Most international travelers can obtain an e-visa online or a visa-on-arrival at major airports (like Cairo International). Requirements vary by nationality, so we recommend verifying your status well in advance. Always keep a printed copy of your visa confirmation and accommodation details to ensure a seamless immigration experience.

What should I pack for an Egyptian holiday?

Pack "cool and conservative." Choose loose, breathable fabrics like cotton or linen. While beach resorts have relaxed dress codes, it is respectful to keep shoulders and knees covered when visiting cities or religious sites. Don’t forget a wide-brimmed hat, high-quality sunglasses, and comfortable walking shoes for uneven temple grounds.
Is tipping common in Egypt?
