Things to Know Before Traveling

Essential tips and insights to help you prepare for a smooth and memorable journey.
Travel Safety & Advisories
Visa, Money & Tipping
Is it safe to travel to Egypt?

Absolutely. Egypt remains a safe and welcoming destination, particularly in popular areas such as Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, and Sharm el-Sheikh. These tourist hubs are well-secured and regularly patrolled by tourism police. While Egypt is a large and diverse country, some regions like Northern Sinai and remote parts of the western desert remain restricted due to safety concerns. We closely monitor all developments and tailor your itinerary to avoid any areas under advisories. As long as you follow standard travel precautions, you can enjoy Egypt’s rich history, culture, and warm hospitality with peace of mind.

How secure is traveling solo or as a woman?

Solo and female travelers are welcomed in Egypt and often find the experience incredibly enriching. That said, we recommend exercising a bit more caution than you might at home—dress modestly, avoid isolated areas at night, and be wary of overly friendly strangers. Hiring a licensed private guide is an excellent way to stay both informed and secure. We offer personalized tour options specifically designed for solo and female travelers, ensuring not only safety but also a deeply immersive experience tailored to your interests.

Visa Requirements

Most travelers visiting Egypt will need a tourist visa, which is easy to obtain and fairly straightforward. The standard visa costs $25 USD and is valid for 30 days. You can get it upon arrival at major international airports or apply in advance through Egypt’s official e-Visa portal. We recommend applying online if you want to save time at the airport. Nationals of some countries may have specific entry rules, so it’s always a good idea to double-check before your trip. At Higher Travel, we’re happy to assist with up-to-date visa information and help ensure your arrival is smooth and stress-free.

Currency & Payments

The local currency is the Egyptian Pound (EGP), but U.S. dollars are also widely accepted in tourist areas. Cash is king—especially at markets, small shops, and for tips—so keep a supply of small bills handy. Major hotels, upscale restaurants, and larger stores usually accept credit cards, but rural areas and street vendors often don’t. ATMs are available in most cities, but notify your bank before traveling. At Higher Travel, we always advise guests to carry a mix of local currency and small U.S. notes to ensure smooth transactions throughout their journey.

Tipping Culture

Tipping—known locally as “baksheesh”—is a well-established part of Egyptian culture and a gesture of appreciation for service. For small tasks like carrying bags or restroom service, 2–5 EGP is typical. In restaurants, 10–15% is standard if service isn’t included. For your guides, drivers, or hotel staff, tipping is expected and highly appreciated—consider budgeting around $3–5 USD per day per person for drivers and $10–15 USD for your guide. At Higher Travel, we’ll provide clear tipping guidance so you can navigate local customs with confidence and generosity.
