📌INFORMATION BEFORE THE TRIP
🛑 Egypt and its "special" things:
- Anyone who helps you has a reason to ask you for a tip (So it's best to do it yourself to be happy)
- Exchanging money at the bank is much, much lower than exchanging with locals.
- People love the Dollar so much that many services only accept Dollars (If converted to Egyptian currency, it's a huge loss).
- When you return home, you won't be able to exchange the change (Even banks don't accept it).
- All sightseeing tickets must be purchased with a Visa card (Cash is not accepted).
- The police carry “toys” everywhere.
🛑 Airfare:
- Fly from Hanoi to Cairo, transit in Doha (Qatar) (About 30 - 40 million/ticket).
- If you want to save more, choose transit through 2 or 3 countries.
- I went to Cairo, Giza, Aswan, Luxor and Alexandria, so you can imagine:
+ Cairo – Giza (20km) - Taxi
+ Cairo – Aswan (870km) – Plane
+ Aswan – Luxor (240km) – Train
+ Luxor – Cairo (650km) – Plane
+ Cairo – Alexandria (200km) – Bus
🛑 Entry procedures:
- You need to apply for an Egyptian Visa to be able to enter the country (Check the visa application procedure on Google).
- If anyone needs it, I will show you the most reputable place that I often do.
🛑 Ideal time:
- Best time (November - April): this is the most pleasant time of the year, sunny afternoons, cool evenings, clear blue sky.
🛑 Ideal time to stay:
- I spent 7 days exploring this place.
