  • Egyptians are remarkably friendly and welcoming.
• Cons
  • Too many boats on the Nile therefore tourist sites are crowded, especially during high season.
  • The systematic request of 'baksheesh' (tips) in any circumstance.
  • Sweltering heat in summer.
  • High level of traffic and pollution in Cairo.
