  How to avoid fraud during your trip to Egypt?
 
  1)   Booking your trip to Egypt
   
  a)    You have to be sure that the agency you have booked your trip with is travel agency that has a license from the Ministry of Tourism and the Egyptian Travel Agency Association according to the Egyptian Law

b)   You have to be aware that there are some persons who organizes trips on the website of "trip advisor" that have no legal cover whatsoever, the thing that might expose you and your trip to many risks

c)    The Ministry of Tourism and the Egyptian Travel Agency Association grantee all the money transactions and transfers with the travel companies that have a license.

d)     If any change occurs to your trip itinerary or if the itinerary was not carried out from the first place, you can obtain your rights from the Ministry of Tourism and the Tourism Police that is available in all cities in Egypt. All of this is conditioned that you have to book with a  travel company that has a license

e)    Please make sure that the price includes the taxes and that there are no other additional fees

f)      Never use "Western Union" to transfer money, because they transfer money with the name of individuals and not companies

g)    Be sure that you have transferred the money with the name of the travel company and not an individual so you can regain your money if there are any breaches to the trip you have planned with the company

h)   According to the Egyptian law, tour guides are not permitted to organize tours. If a tour guide organizes your trip, this exposes you and your money to many risks
   
 
   
  2)   In the Airport
   
  a)    Be sure that you only pay 15 dollars for the visa. The Visa window in the airport does not deal with any currency except the American dollars. ( You can exchange any other currency in the banks and the exchange companies in the airport

b)   If you take a taxi from the airport, be sure to ride in one of the new white taxies as they have kilometer counters and you can know the cost exactly

c)    The cost of the taxi from the airport to the hotel is usually between 20 to 25 dollars depending on the location of the hotel and the traffic conditions 
   
 
   
  3)   During your trip
   
  a)    Always exchange money from the banks available in all the cities in Egypt and not from individuals or the hotels, because they always offer less exchange rates

b)   When buying souvenirs or gifts, always buy from shops and stores that put price tags to avoid bargaining.

c)    If the tour guide asks you to pay any additional fees, you have to get back to the company before paying them

d)   Please do not buy any product from the street vendors in touristic sites.

e)    Paying tips at the end of your trip is not obligatory. You can pay according to how satisfied you were from the services you have received.

f)     If you want to spend extra nights in the hotel, you have to contact your travel agency so you can get a better price other than the Rack Rate that the hotel offers.

g)    In the case if the trip is canceled, the hotel only takes the cost of the accommodation for one night and not for the whole trip. If the travel company informs you that the trip is cancelled, you should report to the company and you can address the hotel directly to get a full refund.
