Safety update for Egypt based on recent experience and community reports:

General Safety Level: Low risk if you stick to known areas.

Common Risks:
- Petty theft in crowded areas — keep valuables secure
- Phone snatching — keep it in your front pocket
- Motorcycle taxi accidents — wear a helmet

Areas to Avoid:
Tourist areas are generally safe but stay alert.

Police Situation:
Corruption exists but tourists rarely targeted.

Stay safe out there.

Been there 5 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The consistency is what keeps me coming back.

Also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.

Adding my experience: scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality.

Word of caution — do not carry too much cash. Other than that, great destination.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Do your research, respect the locals, stay safe. — Northern Lights

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

Word of caution — some online profiles are fake. Other than that, great destination.
