Has anyone been to Egypt recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- New venues worth checking out
I was there a while back and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.
Any recent trip reports would be helpful.
Cheers

Different experience for me. Prices were higher when I went.

Quick question — how was the hotel security?

I was there in January and prices were about average. Spent about $80/day all-in.
My tip: avoid weekends.

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

Did you use freelancers or find girls at clubs?

First time was a learning experience. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

Spot on with the prices. Matches what I paid recently.
