Most nationalities can obtain a tourist visa on arrival at Egyptian airports, or apply in advance for an e-Visa online. Requirements vary by nationality, so we recommend checking with the Egyptian consulate or official e-Visa portal for your specific country before travel. Our team can also guide you through this process.
The most popular months are October through April, when temperatures are milder, especially for sightseeing in Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan. Summer (June–August) is hot but still a great time to enjoy Egypt’s Red Sea resorts like Hurghada and Sharm El Sheikh.
Yes. Tourism is a major part of Egypt’s economy, and popular destinations have a strong security presence, including tourist police. As with travel anywhere, we recommend standard precautions: stay aware of your surroundings, keep valuables secure, and follow your guide’s advice.
Many women travel solo in Egypt safely every year. We recommend dressing modestly at religious and public sites, booking accommodations and tours through trusted providers, and avoiding walking alone late at night in unfamiliar areas. Our tours can be arranged with private, vetted guides and drivers for extra peace of mind.
Modest clothing is required — shoulders and knees should be covered for both men and women, and women should carry a scarf to cover their hair when entering mosques. Shoes must be removed before entering prayer areas.
Photography rules vary by site. Photography is generally allowed in most temples (sometimes for an extra photo permit fee), but flash photography and photography inside certain tombs (such as some in the Valley of the Kings) may be restricted or require an additional ticket. Our guides will always let you know the rules at each site.
Yes, tipping (“baksheesh”) is customary in Egypt for guides, drivers, hotel staff, and restaurant service. It is not mandatory but is a meaningful part of local custom and appreciated for good service.
The Egyptian Pound (EGP) is the official currency. US Dollars and Euros are widely accepted in tourist areas, hotels, and for tipping, but having local currency for smaller purchases is recommended.
Yes, we accept secure online payment through our website’s payment partner, as well as bank transfer. For details on accepted payment methods, please contact our team directly.
We recommend booking at least a few weeks in advance, especially during peak season (October–April), to guarantee availability for popular tours like Nile cruises and hot air balloon rides.
This varies by package. Each tour listing on our Site specifies what is included (e.g., transportation, guide, entry tickets, meals). Please review the individual tour description or contact us for full details before booking.
Yes, airport transfer services can be arranged as part of your package or as a standalone service. Let us know your flight details when booking.
