FAQ — Egypt Tours

Everything you need to know before booking your Egypt adventure — Giza Pyramids, Cairo, Luxor and beyond.

Is Egypt safe for tourists in 2026?

Yes. Egypt's main tourist destinations — Cairo, Giza, Luxor, Aswan, Hurghada and Sharm el-Sheikh — are safe and heavily visited. The Egyptian government has invested significantly in tourist security. Roza Tour provides private escorted tours with local licensed guides throughout your stay.

Do I need a visa to visit Egypt?

Most nationalities can obtain a visa on arrival at Cairo International Airport or purchase an e-Visa online before travel. Citizens of the EU, UK, USA, Canada and Australia are eligible for e-Visa. Roza Tour guides you through the process and advises on the easiest method for your nationality.

What sites will I visit on the Giza Pyramids tour?

The Giza tour covers the Great Pyramid, the Pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure, the Great Sphinx and the Valley Temple. The Egyptian Museum, Khan el-Khalili and, on multi-day tours, Luxor's Valley of the Kings and Karnak Temple are visited on our other Egypt tours — each tour page lists exactly what it includes.

Can I enter the pyramids inside?

Yes — entry inside the Great Pyramid requires an additional ticket (not included in the general site ticket). We advise purchasing this in advance during peak season. Our guides brief you on what to expect inside and the best photo spots outside.

What is the best time to visit Egypt?

October to April are the ideal months — comfortable temperatures of 18–28 °C. Summer (June–August) is very hot in Cairo and Luxor (40 °C+) but manageable with early-morning sightseeing. We recommend early-morning Giza visits to avoid the afternoon heat and crowds.

What currency is used in Egypt?

The Egyptian Pound (EGP) is the local currency. Our tours are priced in Euros. ATMs are widely available in Cairo, Giza and tourist areas. We recommend carrying some USD or Euro as a backup, as tips for guides and staff are customarily paid in USD.

What languages are spoken in Egypt?

Arabic is the official language. English is widely spoken in tourism sectors — hotels, guides, restaurants and shops. Our Roza Tour Egypt guides are fluent in English, French and Arabic.

What should I pack for Egypt?

Light, breathable clothing — linen or cotton. Modest dress is respectful, especially at mosques (shoulders and knees covered). Comfortable closed-toe walking shoes for uneven pyramid terrain. Sunscreen (SPF50+), sunglasses, a hat, and a reusable water bottle are essential.
