In this post, I would like to cover two topics. The first one deals with the aspect of being comfortable in Egypt, because you are going to visit plenty of places and my advice is to wear appropriate shoes. Of course, it is very subjective what can be considered a good shoe, because it is different to go visiting Egypt by the winter than in springtime, for example; it is not the same if you are a man or a woman, but in general, take with you open footwear, because your feet will appreciate it.
About clothing, bring with you soft dresses, I recommend you, especially the cotton and the linen ones, that cover your shoulders and your knees.
The second topic l would like to treat is much tighter, because it deals with the decency of your clothing when you are visiting in general a foreign country and in particular, a Muslim one. Take into account that although in Egypt, they are several religion's followers, the Muslims ones are the large majority, and even considering that people there in general is used to see tourists by the millions every year, l would advise you to dress modestly, and if you are a woman, to cover a little beat your hair. Of course, it is a very personal issue, and you can do what you want at the end.
