Egypt's hotels are practically sold out, resulting in exorbitantly expensive plane tickets, so plan to book your reservations ahead of your time.

It's only a minor annoyance that may make you uncomfortable, but it's not hazardous. Tourists visiting well-known sites like as the Giza Pyramids may be asked with annoyance and get so much attention from sellers for money or business, even if they are in a vehicle or taxi.

It is a distance of five miles from the pyramids to the current Nile canal, which is a significant distance for large stone slabs to cover. Long before the Sphinx was discovered in the sand dunes, the Giza Pyramids were fighting the Nile. When the flood came, a torrent of the Nile River approached the Pyramids site, as it had in the past.
Despite the fact that Egypt's dress code is conservative and modest by Western standards and viewpoints, the government and legislation do not require modest clothes. It's more about what Egyptians are used to seeing and will see on ordinary Egyptian streets, so seeming weird to avoid attention won't be a good idea. If you want to feel at ease among Egyptians without feeling odd or out of place and completely immerse yourself in the culture that is a part of your vacation, don't wear outfits that expose your cleavage and shoulders, for example. Egyptians dress in this fashion regardless of whether they are wearing a skirt, blouse, jeans, or another form of cloth. Avoid shorts or crop tops because they are very rare among Egyptian ladies. In contemporary and rich gated communities, as well as along the coast especially touristic ones, this modest design slowly fades away.

It rains a lot near the Mediterranean coast in the winter.

It isn't as harmful as you would think. Along the Nile, you'll notice a strong degree of security that is both reassuring and inconspicuous. Every attraction, hotel, and cruise ship has metal detector gates identical to those found at airports. Plan for luggage inspections as well; for day travels, it's better to pack minimally.
