What To Bring To Egypt?
If you’re planning to join our Egyptian Escape to Cairo and Sharm El Sheikh this May, there are a few essential things you’ll want to bring with you to ensure you have a comfortable and enjoyable experience.
First and foremost, don’t forget to pack your passport and any necessary visas or travel documents. You’ll also want to bring comfortable, lightweight clothing suitable for warm weather, as temperatures in Egypt can be quite hot in May.
For the days in Cairo, be sure to bring comfortable walking shoes as you’ll be exploring the ancient pyramids, riding camels, and visiting the grand Egyptian Museum. You may also want to pack a hat and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun.
For the nights in Cairo, you’ll have the opportunity to explore local night markets, so consider bringing some Egyptian pounds for shopping and souvenirs. And if you plan to visit any mosques or other religious sites, be sure to bring modest clothing that covers your shoulders and knees.
As for the days in Sharm El Sheikh, you’ll want to bring a swimsuit and beachwear for the tropical pool party and the pirate sailboat trip to Ras Mohammad and the White Island. Don’t forget to bring a waterproof camera or phone case to capture these amazing experiences!
For the quad bikes and camel rides in the desert, be sure to bring closed-toe shoes and consider wearing long pants to protect your legs. And for the workouts and yoga classes, bring comfortable activewear and sneakers.
