Dress appropriately. Covering up not only helps you to blend in better – but it also conveys your respect for Egyptian culture.
Plan your day and choose your public transport options accordingly. The best choices in my opinion are using Uber in Egypt or the metro. If you hire a taxi, always sit in the back seat and arrange your ride through a hotel desk when possible or professional company
Think about hiring tour guides at tourist sights.
What is forbidden in Egypt?
The majority-Islamic nature of Egypt is reflected in local laws. Always respect local laws, customs, traditions, and religions, and be mindful of your behavior to avoid offending people of other cultures or faiths.
More importantly, it is against the law to take pictures of Egyptian military or police personnel, structures, or vehicles. Avoid going to mosques when people are praying.

Can you wear jeans in Egypt?
You can dress however you normally would for a night out. In Egypt, there isn't really a set clothing code. Egyptian ladies dress similarly to us, including in form-fitting items like skinny jeans and leggings.
Can girls wear shorts in Egypt?
It is not advised for female travellers to ever wear shorts in Egypt outside of beach resort cities. Many visitors who are visiting Egypt for the first time inquire about what to pack.
Best Time to travel to Egypt: September \ April. In particular September \ October and March \ April offer warm but not scorching temperatures.
visit Egypt in Winter
Winter is by far the most popular time to visit Egypt's capital because the days are warm and sunny and the evenings are cool and breezy.
If you're planning a trip between December and February, you can expect lot of tourists.
You'll find the best deals on hotels during the summer.
Winter is the perfect time to take a trip down to Luxor and Aswan, where temperatures soar during summer months, making it almost impossible to wander through the dusty Valley of the Kings. Winter however finds Luxor and Aswan visitors in T-shirts and shorts during the day and a light jacket at night.
