Land of the Pharaohs
Not every fairy tale exists. Yet, some true stories overpower our imagination so much that we think of them no less than an enchanting fairy tale. We imagine the scenario as we do in case of Eldorado and that gives us all the more reason to explore, experience, and live through the golden moments that have erupted from the face of the land. And, that land is none other than Egypt.
Egypt visa on arrival policy applies to the following countries: the United States, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Canada, all European Union countries, Norway, Russia, Ukraine, Georgia, Serbia, Malaysia, Macedonia, Japan, South Korea, China (as of May 2018). If you are a citizen of one of these countries, you can obtain a visa with your passport information, personal information and details about your travel plans upon arrival at an Egyptian port of entry. The visa on arrival is usually valid for 30 days.
US dollar, pound sterling, and euro are accepted mainly in tourist areas and major cities. So generally you are expected to pay in Egyptian pounds, especially for trinkets or tipping, or in remote areas. The Egyptian pound is the official currency in Egypt and is commonly abbreviated as EGP, LE or E£. It is divided into 100 piastres or 1,000 millimes. The cash allowed to be carried in or out of Egypt is limited to EGP 5,000 and USD 10,000 or its equivalent in other currencies. Any cash beyond the amount must be declared.
Generally, Egypt has a desert climate, but the Mediterranean coastal areas enjoy a moderate temperature thanks to the prevailing wind. The climate features a hot season from May to October and a cool season from October to May. In the hot season, it is dry and hot in most parts of the country, and humid in the Nile Delta and Mediterranean coastal areas. So sun protection is the most important consideration for this season, especially for the fair-skinned. Pure cotton clothes and sunhats are essential. In the cool season, the weather is mild with some rain; it is bright and sunny in most days but usually cold in nights. The most humid area lies along the Mediterranean coast. The precipitation declines sharply from north to south. It may rain once in a few years in many desert areas.
Egypt is as safe as any of the European countries. The security and army personnel of Egypt work 24X7 to ensure safe and pleasant holidays.
Egypt has a voltage supply of 220V and the plugs are the 2 round pin type that is common throughout Europe can be found in shops selling luggage or other travel goods.
