Do I Need a Visa to Visit Egypt, And If So, How I Do Acquire One, How much it cost in 2021? For the vast majority of travelers to Egypt, a valid passport and a travel visa is required. A visa can easily be purchased at the airport when you arrive. The cost for a single-entry, 30-day tourist visa is $25 (or equivalent in Euro), must be paid in cash (no credit or debit cards accepted), and your passport must be valid for at least six months. Citizens of all European countries, Australia, Canada, Georgia, Japan, South Korea, Macedonia, New Zealand, Norway, Russia, Serbia, Ukraine and United States can obtain a visa upon arrival. Visas can also be purchased beforehand through Egypt’s Visa e-Portal: https://visa2egypt.gov.eg. Forty-one different nationalities are eligible to purchase the e-visa, however, it’s far easier to simply buy the visa at the airport. Do Children also need a Visa? Yes, Even if they are minors and/or included in the passport of their parents. What types of money and credit cards are accepted in Egypt? In tourist areas, all major credit cards, Euros, and US dollars are widely accepted. However, it’s nice to have a few Egyptian Pound notes and coins for tipping, minor purchases, and small shops. There are ATMs at banks throughout all the major tourism areas where you can withdrawal Egyptian Pounds. Any currency exchange should be taken care of at one of the many officially authorized kiosks at the airport. If I Book a Tour, Will I Be Travelling In a Group, or Will Be a Private Tour?

If you’re considering travelling to Egypt then you probably need to consider whether or not to hire a guide. “Do I need a guide in Cairo?”  The short answer is “Yes, you need a guide in Cairo” You need a guide if you want to get the most from your time in Cairo.  If you are staying in Cairo and have lots of time to go exploring then you will probably find your way around but you will also need lots of information, time, energy, heat tolerance and patience. If you are a solo female traveler, we highly recommend hire a guide for your safety and comfortable. We definitely recommend you take a guide to the Giza Plateau – not for the history but for the hassle.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
