Hydration: Egypt’s dry climate can lead to dehydration quickly, so drinking plenty of water is essential. Always carry a bottle of bottled water with you, especially when touring popular attractions like the Pyramids or exploring the desert.
- Tip: Buy bottled water from reputable sources. Many hotels and restaurants offer bottled water, but be wary of unsealed bottles from street vendors.
Sun Protection: The sun in Egypt can be harsh, particularly in desert areas. Use sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and apply it every few hours. It’s also a good idea to wear sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat.
- Clothing: Light, long-sleeve clothing made from natural fabrics like cotton can protect you from the sun while keeping you cool. Don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes for walking around ancient sites.
