Sun Protection: High SPF sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat, and sunglasses are highly recommended to protect against the strong Egyptian sun.
Breathable, Modest Clothing: Lightweight, loose-fitting fabrics like cotton or linen are best for the heat. Modest clothing (covering shoulders and knees) is respectful of local culture and provides extra sun protection.

Small Daypack: A comfortable backpack to carry daily essentials while keeping hands free.
Camera and Power Bank: To capture the iconic sights without worrying about a drained battery.
Local Cash: Small Egyptian Pound (EGP) notes are useful for tipping (baksheesh), buying small souvenirs, or using public restrooms.
