Preparing a suitcase to Egypt is very simple, depending a lot on the climate and customs.
Egypt is a country throughout its history was civil, never took a religious system, although this system arrived in 2011 but did not last more than a year, but even so the social classes are very marked and is usually the middle class, and humble quite preserved, as much of the archaeological sites are in areas of humble class and middle class, with which
For women it is advisable to wear women’s clothing to Egypt with short or long sleeves without necklines and long pants or shorts not so sexy, but also in hotels, cruise you can wear the clothes you want, in the sea areas are very western cities in which one can wear what he wants, when entering the mosques usually does not cover the head but in some mosques if they ask for it
For men the clothes of men in Egypt although they are not similar to Western men but still does not carry any offense any form of dress of man.
Egypt is one of the countries that is receiving a lot of climate change as many parts of the world but still it is advisable in summer cotton clothes and in winter 3 layers because Egypt goes through 3 phases of temperature during the day, during the early morning quite cold, then gradually feel warmer and during the night is quite cold especially in the north of the country.
Â
Despite its dry environment but due to its very varied nature between desert, fertile valley (the valley of the Nile River and its delta) 2 seas which are the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea, and mountains, the climate of Egypt changes from one area to the other.
But it is united in that the country does not receive much rain in much of its territory except in the north in the winter months between November to March, Egypt rarely receives snow and it is usually in the east both in Sinai and the cities of the delta that is usually quite humid.
The summer months in Egypt are from April to October while the winter months are usually from November to March.
Due to climate change, Egypt was also one of the countries suffering from climate change that was on the one hand positive and on the other negative, formerly the summer of the Pharaonic country was quite hot that reached 50 degrees both in the south and in the desert territory, today Egypt has been 2 years with a summer much lighter with about 40 degrees or 39 in the hottest months (July and August) and the winter of this country dawned much longer and colder than before, the north of this country in the coldest months of winter was 8 or 7 degrees while the south was about 15 degrees or 12 at some times of the day, but on the other hand the country does not yet have sufficient infrastructure to receive rain in the north and is an additional charge to the regime now established.
The currency of Egypt is the Egyptian pound, it maintained a high purchasing power until the 50’s until for some time in its history it became almost equal to a pound of gold, from the 60’s due to the political situation after having received a military coup in the 50’s, and the constant wars, the Suez crisis, the war of the 6 days, the war of 69 and finally the war of Yum Kippur, the Egyptian currency received many blows that caused its devaluation, it became almost 7 pounds in exchange for the dollar, and 9 pounds in exchange for the euro.
The pound continued to bleed because of the political situation after 2 revolutions known as the first Arab war, and the regime established in Egypt faced the strongest economic crisis in the history of the millenary country, it was forced to devalue the currency, since then the pound began to lose much value against the dollar that reached 15.5 Egyptian pounds, and against the euro that reached 19 Egyptian pounds.
Today, despite the economic situation, Egypt’s economy is considered one of the best growing economies in the world, but the country still has many obstacles and problems to solve.
You can pay with all types of credit cards in Egypt, although American Express is not preferred due to its high commission (it is not advisable to pay with credit cards in unfamiliar places in Egypt).
Â
The Egyptian currency is the Egyptian pound, was devalued a few years ago by the economic crisis that Egypt suffered during the time of the first Arab will see, under much the value of the Egyptian pound to the dollar and the euro,
It is always advisable to change money in Egypt that the exchange rate is always better there, all hotels usually have banks to change money but there are ATMs to change money and exchange houses near the archaeological monuments.

Although apparently the Egyptian world is more masculine, but the role of women in the Egyptian society was very noticeable, something was manifested in the last elections in Egypt. And made the candidates to address the political discourse to them, that answers the question that the woman being alone can easily make a trip to Egypt.

At present there are so many guides on the market about Egypt that one more may seem unnecessary however I hope that ours will be interesting, it is different in the sense of the topics it reveals, it also points out the sites to try to understand the purpose for which these sites were intended ,to vary the vision about the destination and choose the package that suits us this destination , It also contains some of our itineraries apart from the itineraries that are on our website
The Egypt guide is arranged in an interesting way that starts with its index, most important cities, then some interesting articles about certain sites that we focus to present to you in a way that deserves, then it shows our way of dividing the travel packages benefits, it also tells about our insurances and how to travel safe both health insurance, cancellation and luggage.
Throughout its history even during the time of wars Egypt has been a safe destination, and according to its world ranking it had a good security ranking worldwide and that because security itself is an objective of the regime established in Egypt, after enough demonstrations, political situation, radical economic measures, police presence is seen in the country, also the system ,perhaps inspires many people discomfort but in reality the Egyptian country is establishing various systems of tax collection ,devaluing the currency to change the system from a left socialist system to capitalist and that requires the state to be attentive to various needs especially the security and the humble class of the country and its need.
