Alternatively, those arriving in one of the coastal governorates of South Sinai, the Red Sea, or any of the Northern Mediterranean towns who cannot show evidence of a negative test are to self-quarantine at a hotel for 14-days.

Is It Safe To Travel To Egypt?

Egypt is one of the safest countries to travel to during this pandemic of Covid 19 since Egypt has had one of the lowest infections throughout the world. Egypt is currently allowing a maximum occupancy of 50% at hotels, and also only 50% occupancy on Nile Cruise Ships. Making Egypt not only safe to travel to, but a country that will be more enjoyable, since neither hotels nor Nile cruise ships will be fully booked. Also, tourist sites in Cairo, Luxor, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Aswan, and Abu Simbel will not be as busy, hence more enjoyable with a limited amount of tourists.
