Travel Advice when Travelling To Egypt From MCLK Travel
- Details
- Published: 08 October 2015
There is a high risk of terrorism in many parts of Egypt and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office has issued advice and restrictions about travelling to many areas within the country.
However the tourist resorts of Sharm el Sheikh and Hurghada are subject to enhanced security measures including routine check points at the perimeters and throughout the resort by the country's security forces.
Thousands of people from Britain travel to these resorts every year without any problems. The sun shines all year round and it is a great place to spend time with the family.
Here at MCLK Travel we would therefore like to help our loyal customers by summarising the advice freely available online. Our friendly drivers will also help you any way they can with information when you book your Airport Transfers Liverpool with MCLK Travel.
Helpful Information When visiting Sharm El Sheikh
- Take out comprehensive travel and medical insurance before you travel
- Save money by not queuing to buy a visa at the airport on arrival in Egypt. As you are limited to staying within the tourist resorts of either Hurghada or Sharm el Sheikh you will not need a visa provided your stay is for up to 15 days. On arrival at the airport they will try and suggest you need a visa, this is untrue. All you need is a completed landing card that you will be given before landing into Sharm el Sheikh
- Ensure you use a high factor sun cream. The sun is particularly strong in the morning in Egypt and at midday.
- Drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration or sunstroke. We also recommend avoiding drinking too much alcohol especially during the day as this increases the risk of dehydration.
- We recommend mosquito repellent sprays are used from dusk as there are plenty of Mosquitos about.
