First time in Egypt? Here's what Misk Tours recommends to every traveler before they arrive.
Pack lightweight, breathable clothing — linen or cotton works best in Egypt's heat. Modest dress (covered shoulders and knees) is required at all temples and religious sites. Bring a light evening layer for cool Nile nights.
The Egyptian Pound (EGP) is the local currency. ATMs are widely available in Luxor and Aswan. USD, EUR, and GBP are accepted at most cruise ships and tourist shops. Always carry small EGP bills for tips and local purchases.
Buy a local SIM card at Cairo, Luxor, or Aswan airport on arrival. Vodafone and Orange Egypt offer tourist data packages from $5 USD. Most luxury cruise ships and hotels provide free Wi-Fi, though signal varies while sailing between temples.
Most nationalities obtain an Egypt e-visa online for $25 USD before travel, or on arrival at Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan airports. Apply at visa2egypt.gov.eg at least 72 hours before departure. must be valid for 6+ months.
Pack a basic medical kit: antihistamines, antidiarrheal tablets, and rehydration salts. Travel insurance covering medical evacuation is strongly advised. Consult your GP about Hep A and typhoid vaccinations before travelling to Egypt.
Egypt is a photographer's paradise, but rules apply. Photography fees are required inside most tombs and some temples. Drones need a permit. Always ask before photographing locals — a respectful smile goes a long way in building trust.
Egypt's climate varies significantly by season. Here's when to go based on your priorities.
Cooling temperatures and rich golden light perfect for photography — one of the most scenic times to sail the Nile
Peak season with cool, clear skies ideal for sightseeing — luxury cruise cabins sell out fast, book at least 3 months ahead
Warm days, light crowds, and blooming Nile banks — the sweet spot for first-time visitors seeking comfort and value
Peak heat with minimal crowds and lowest cruise prices — ideal for budget travelers who don't mind the intense Egyptian sun
