What should I pay attention to when traveling to Egypt in August?

In order to maintain social order, all towns in Egypt, especially all tourist attractions in the capital, have gendarmes, tourist police, plainclothes police, and staff sent by security and safety departments on duty. Despite this, there is still a danger of terrorist attacks in Egypt, and embassies and consulates will release relevant security information in a timely manner. Therefore, visitors to Egypt are particularly reminded to pay attention to safety, and it is best to go out with a group. For example, if you are free, try to travel together and travel safely under actual circumstances.

Precautions:

1) Egypt is an Islamic country, so we should pay attention to respecting local religions and customs. Women should not wear revealing clothes, and there should be no intimate actions such as hugging between men and women in public.

2) Egypt has to drink alcohol, but it is not advisable to drink hard liquor in public places.

3) It is forbidden to take photos in sensitive areas such as government agencies and military facilities. No woman can be photographed without her permission. Shooting in mosques and museums requires prior consent.

4) Pay attention to food hygiene, and it is best not to buy street snacks. Don't carry pork products.

Tipping is common in Egypt. Generally, waiters, tour guides and drivers should be tipped.
