Hydrate constantly
Egypt’s heat is relentless—carry a reusable water bottle and refill at your hotel or trusted stops; drink before you feel thirsty.
Dress respectfully
Wear lightweight, modest clothing that covers shoulders and knees for temple visits and to respect local customs.

Small purchases, tips and some entry tickets work best with Egyptian pounds; ATMs are common in cities but not at remote sites.
Start early
Plan dawn or early-morning site visits to avoid crowds and the midday sun—guides typically schedule the hottest visits first or late afternoon.

Breathable long sleeves and loose pants keep you protected from sun and dust during daytime tours.
