Practical Info PHOTOGRAPHY

Taking photos or video of tourist locations is fine, but you will sometimes see signs in holy places or near military bases advising against it. Some museums bar photography too, so watch for the signs or just ask to be added here.



ATMs are easily available at banks or in many larger hotels. Banks and bureaux de change are readily available for changing currency. Shops, hotels and restaurants readily accept the usual credit cards and travellers’ cheques, although cash payments are usual in markets and smaller establishments. There is no limit to the amount of foreign currency you can take in or out of Egypt.
