Travel Tips
The climate of Egypt is overwhelmingly hot and dry.
What little rain there
is falls mainly in Alexandria and the Nile Delta and Mediterranean coastal region in the winter. In the summer, this area can get quite humid.
Between late March and mid-May, occasional dust storms may occur.
October - March is the ideal time to visit Egypt.
A valid passport and a current visa are required for American travelers to enter Egypt. For $30, Ya’lla Tours will pre-pay your visa and have it waiting for you in the airport upon arrival.
In general, no immunizations are necessary for visiting the major tourist areas of Egypt. However, if you have concerns, please consult your personal physician. If entering Egypt from an infected area, evidence of Yellow Fever and Cholera immunizations is required.
Arabic is the official language of Egypt. English and French are widely spoken.
Clothing - Egypt is quite conservative with regards to dress. It is best for both men and women to keep shoulders and legs fairly well covered. Loose, flowing garments in natural fibers (cotton, linen) are ideal for the Egyptian heat. Shorts are tolerated at tourist sites, but should be knee length. In winter, layering is the best way to transition from the warm days to cool nights.
Walking shoes - Most visitors to Egypt will do a great deal of walking on dusty, rocky ground. Good thick soles and material that breathes are a must.
Sun hat - Keeping the head and neck covered prevents sunstroke. A large brim will provide shade, and something in cloth can be soaked to cool the head in very hot weather. For women, a scarf will also come in handy as a head and shoulder covering when touring mosques and churches.
The currency of Egypt is the Egyptian Pound; 1 pound = 100 piastres. Money can be exchanged at American Express offices, banks and many hotels (banks usually have the best exchange rate). Major credit cards are accepted at larger establishments and ATMs are widely available in the major cities. US Dollars are widely accepted in tourist areas.
The electrical current in Egypt is 220 volt. Wall sockets have two round holes.
