Traveling alone in Egypt

Traveling in Egypt solo is generally safe, especially in larger cities where most of the tourists congregate. However, folks in rural areas may still see a tourist traveling alone suspiciously. It is advised then never to accept invitations from strangers and never walk in deserted areas. In exploring tourist spots, it's a lot safer (and cheaper) to join tour guides than trying to look for them yourself. If problems arise, seek help from the nearest police station by dialing 122. For medical emergency, you can dial 123.
