Essential Money & Travel Guide for Visitors to Egypt
When traveling across Egypt, carrying a reasonable amount of local currency (Egyptian Pounds - EGP) is recommended for daily expenses, traditional markets, taxis, and tipping. Major tourist destinations such as Cairo, Giza, Luxor, Aswan, and Sharm El Sheikh offer an extensive network of ATMs and licensed currency exchange bureaus. Credit and debit cards (Visa and Mastercard) are widely accepted in major hotels, upscale restaurants, and shopping malls. For safety and compliance with local guidelines, always convert your foreign currency through official bank channels or authorized airport counters.
