You arrive at Cairo’s airport at dusk, the desert heat still clinging to your clothes while the city’s lights blink awake. A private car steers you past modern blocks and squat minarets toward the silhouette of the Giza Plateau, where limestone pyramids cut the sky like patient monuments daring you to draw closer.

Conservation
High visitor numbers stress fragile wall paintings and sand-eroded stone; choose responsible operators, avoid touching reliefs, and support sites with entrance fees that fund preservation.

Start at dawn for major sites
Visit Giza, Karnak and Valley of the Kings early to avoid heat and crowds; mornings offer the best light for photos.
Hydrate and pace yourself
Carry a reusable water bottle and sip frequently—Egypt’s sun and dry air can dehydrate you faster than you think.
Dress respectfully at religious sites
Wear shoulders-covering tops and knee-length skirts or trousers for mosques and some temples to respect local customs.
Carry local cash and small notes
Some smaller vendors, tips and museum vendors accept only Egyptian pounds; have small denominations for ease.
Comfortable walking shoes
Support and traction for uneven archaeological sites and cobbled streets.
Wide-brim sun hat & sunscreen
Protects you from strong sun during daytime excursions and on the Nile deck.
