The best way is to take dollars (notes from the year 2000 or later), euros or pounds sterling to exchange for the local currency: Egyptian pounds. Although many places accept dollars and euros as payment, it is not convenient for you to pay this way, as they calculate a very bad exchange rate, different from the official exchange rate and the change is almost always in Egyptian pounds (which can be very confusing). Therefore, the best thing to do is to exchange your money for Egyptian pounds and pay in the local currency. You can take money with you at Wise, Nomad Global, Revolut and C6. All international DEBIT cards are accepted (Visa or Mastercard). American Express cards are NOT accepted in Egypt. You can withdraw money without paying a withdrawal fee. It is advisable to exchange money little by little, as you need it. The guide can take you to reliable ATMs or even exchange the money for you. All the logistics for this trip (transfer, accommodation, transportation, Portuguese-speaking guide and food) were taken care of by Maktub Travel.
