Travel tips
October to April is the comfortable season. The Christmas and New Year weeks (18 December to 5 January) sell out first.
Many passports get an e-Visa online or a visa on arrival in Cairo. Check yours before you fly.
Light layers, a hat, sunscreen and closed shoes. Cover shoulders and knees for mosques and churches.
Cards work in hotels; carry small notes for tips. Tipping is expected but not included.
