Tips for your trip to Egypt

Egypt is a fascinating and unique destination, so it's wise to be prepared. Here are some practical tips for organizing your trip from Barcelona:

• Climate and luggage: Egypt has a desert climate, with high temperatures for much of the year. Bring lightweight clothing, sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen. In winter, it cools down at night, so include a warm garment.
  
• Currency and payments: The official currency is the Egyptian pound (EGP). Although more places are accepting cards, it's advisable to carry cash for small purchases, tips, or local transport.
  
• Internal transport: In big cities, you'll find taxis, app-based transport services, and limited public transportation. For traveling between regions, there are trains and internal flights that facilitate the journeys.
  
• Plugs and voltage: Egypt uses type C and F plugs, the same as in Spain, with a voltage of 220–240 V. You won't need an adapter if you're traveling from Europe.
  
• Local customs: Egypt is mainly a Muslim country, so it's respectful to dress modestly, especially in rural areas or places of worship. The greeting is warm, and it's customary to leave tips for services rendered.
  
• Safety and health: We recommend traveling with international medical insurance and avoiding tap water. Bring hand sanitizer and sunscreen. Consult your doctor if you need any vaccinations before your trip.
