Many tourists are interested in the question of what to take to Egypt so that the rest is carefree. The main thing that a tourist needs is a package of documents. To enter Egypt without hassle, you should have the following with you:
- passport (its validity must be more than three months from the end of the visit to the country);
- round-trip air tickets;
- insurance policy;
- tourist voucher;
- a pen for filling in an entry visa.
Immediately after arrival, the tourist is issued a visa. It is pasted into the passport. This process is accompanied by the payment of a fee of $ 15. An Egyptian visa is valid for a month. To obtain a visa for a longer period, you should contact the consular section of the Egyptian Embassy in Moscow in advance.
What to take to Egypt besides documents
When planning to visit this hot country, be sure to take a first aid kit. It should contain medications that you take regularly (if any). In addition to them, put the following medicines in the medicine cabinet:
- analgin;
- aspirin;
- no-shpa or other pain relievers;
- remedies for indigestion, poisoning, diarrhea and heaviness in the abdomen;
- Activated carbon;
- bandage, cotton wool;
- plasters;
- bruise ointment or gel;
- wet wipes.
In addition to medicines in Egypt, a remedy for protection from active sunlight is useful. Sunglasses and a hat are a must. They can be purchased directly at the resort, but prices there will be clearly overpriced. Egypt is visited mainly to enjoy a beach holiday. Therefore, take everything you need for the beach: swimming trunks (swimsuit), pareos, a beach bag, beach towels (they are also given at the hotel); water goggles, mask, snorkel, air mattress. If desired, these accessories can be purchased in Egypt.
During rest, you will need a camera and replaceable batteries for your phone, player and other equipment. Do not forget to take light shoes with you, in which you will be comfortable during long excursions. Flip flops and sandals are suitable for the beach and walking around the city, while sneakers or trainers will be needed for visiting various attractions.
When packing your suitcase, keep in mind that its maximum permissible weight is 25 kg. For carry-on baggage, a weight of 5 kg is allowed. You cannot put any liquid over 100 ml in your hand luggage, as well as a manicure set. However, you can take Duty Free perfumes and drinks that are packaged in special packages with you on the plane. The integrity of the packaging must not be violated.
