Essential Egypt Travel Tips: Navigating Payments, Street Food, and Stray Animals

Travelers heading to Egypt should be aware of three key considerations to ensure a smooth and safe trip, according to a recent travel guide. The first tip concerns card payments in hotels. Tourists are advised to be cautious of payment terminals configured to force dynamic currency conversion, which can result in an unfavorable exchange rate for the US dollar. It is recommended to choose payments in local currency to avoid inflated costs. The second piece of advice relates to street food. While tempting, travelers should verify that food is not fried in old, dark oil. Such oil can contain harmful, carcinogenic compounds and may lead to food poisoning and digestive issues, making dishes heavy and difficult to digest. Lastly, the guide warns against interacting with stray animals. Despite appearing friendly, street animals in Egypt can carry rabies, parasites, and other infections. It is crucial not to pet or feed them to prevent potential health risks.
