Practical information and what to wear
Dress code: Given the cultural and religious significance of the sites, especially the mosque, it is important to dress modestly.
For the mosque: Women must cover their hair, shoulders and knees. It is essential to wear a headscarf, which can often be obtained or rented at the entrance. Men must wear long trousers and a shirt that covers their shoulders. Both men and women must remove their shoes before entering the carpeted prayer areas.
Some sites may have additional fees to enter certain tombs or pyramid chambers, so be prepared for these extra costs if you decide to enter.
What to bring:
- Sunscreen, hat, and sunglasses to protect yourself from the intense sun.
- A bottle of water to stay hydrated. Many tours provide bottled water.
- Some cash for tips (baksheesh) and souvenirs.
- Your passport or a copy of your identity card.
