Egypt offers a variety of transportation options. Domestic flights connect major cities, while the train network, especially the sleeper trains between Cairo and Aswan, is a popular choice for long distances. Nile cruises provide a scenic way to travel. Within cities, the metro (in Cairo), taxis, and ride-hailing services are widely available.
Specialty cuisine
Egyptian cuisine is a blend of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean flavors. The national dish, Koshari (a mix of rice, pasta, and lentils), is a must-try. Other popular dishes include Ful Medames (fava beans), Ta'ameya (Egyptian falafel), and various grilled kebabs. Mint tea and Karkadeh (hibiscus tea) are common beverages.
Etiquette and Tipping
- Tipping, or 'baksheesh', is an ingrained part of the culture and is expected for almost all services. In restaurants, a tip of 10-15% is customary.
- Greetings often begin with a warm handshake. It is important to use the right hand when interacting with people, especially for eating and handling food.
