FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What to See In Egypt?

Egypt tours from Chicago

Sites such as the Giza Pyramids, Karnak Temple complex and the Abu Simbel Temples near Aswan are considered to among the very best Egypt tourist attractions, so we obviously recommend visiting these if you haven’t visited them already. Other ancient sites which we highly recommend are places like Philae Temple in Aswan; the Temple of Horus in Edfu, and of course, the Valley of Kings in Luxor.

It goes without saying that we also definitely recommend visiting the tomb of King Tutankhamen in the Valley of Kings. However, this requires proper planning if you want to see inside his tomb. If you need a break from all the sightseeing then a Sahara Desert tour is also a great option.

Top 5 Attractions to See in Egypt

  1. The Great Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx in Cairo
  2. The majestic Temples of Abu Simbel in Aswan
  3. Valley of the Kings in Luxor
  4. The Temple of Horus in Edfu
  5. The Karnak Temple in Luxor

What to Pack for Egypt?

If you are thinking about booking one of our Egypt tours from Chicago, you may be wondering about what to pack for Egypt. Deciding what to pack is a personal matter, but we do recommend packing in a comfortable pair of shoes; a wide-brimmed hat; sunglasses; a few lightweight cotton tops, and some sunscreen lotion. We also recommend packing in at least one pair of trousers and a warm top because it can get quite cool in the evenings.

Distance and Flight Time from Chicago to Egypt

The distance from Chicago to Cairo International Airport in Egypt is approximately 6,140 miles. At the time of writing, no airlines were operating direct flights from Chicago to Cairo. The next best option is a one-stop flight offered by Lufthansa with an estimated flight time of approximately 16 hours and 05 minutes.

How to Obtain a Tourist Visa for Egypt?

People who will be traveling on an American passport can enjoy Egypt tours from Chicago without having to visit any Egyptian Embassy or Egyptian Consulate in thee United States to obtain an Egypt tourist visa. Instead, they can either apply online for an Egypt e-Visa before traveling to Egypt or they can get a Visa-on-Arrival at any international airport in Egypt.

If you choose to book one of our Egypt and Jordan tours from USA, you can also get a Visa-on-Arrival when you get to Jordan.

Is It Safe To Visit Egypt?

Yes, Egypt is a very safe tourist destination. However, a little bit of common sense can go a long way in helping you to avoid unnecessary problems. For example, stay alert and aware of your surroundings in very busy touristy areas. Additionally, female travelers and those traveling alone should try to avoid being out on foot at night in very quiet and/or poorly lit areas.

People who have concerns about the current situation in Egypt, they can check the latest Egypt Travel Advisory issued by the American government prior to booking any Egypt tours from Chicago.
