Is it better to go to Abu Simbel by road or by plane from Aswan? And what time should I aim to arrive?
Is entry to the inside of the Great Pyramid of Giza possible, and what should I expect — is it claustrophobic?
I land late at night. Are ride apps like Uber and Careem trustworthy in Cairo, or should I use a hotel transfer?
Is the Cairo Metro practical for visitors, and how do tickets and the women's carriage work?
Is it better to bring US dollars/euros and exchange in Egypt, or get Egyptian pounds at home first?
I love trying local food. What are the must-try Egyptian dishes, and how do I eat street food safely?
Can I drink the tap water, or should I stick to bottled? What about ice and brushing teeth?
I'm travelling alone as a woman. How safe is Egypt, and what practical tips help with attention or hassle?
I'd like to visit historic mosques like Al-Azhar and Sultan Hassan. What's the dress code and etiquette?
First trip to Cairo — should I stay near the pyramids in Giza, or somewhere more central like Downtown or Zamalek?
