Travel Info Is it save as a woman to travel alone to egypt? Travel Tips It is very safe. I am a European girl and I did travel alone to Egypt. I had no single problem there. Did you know that, according to statistics, Cairo is one of the safest metropolis in the world? And I can tell you that she is really safe from my own experience. A woman can wander around alone with no problem at all, both day and night. Yes, many men will stare at her and some of them will try to talk to her, but nobody will try to hurt her in any way. She can ignore them if she likes or she can talk to them if she wants to. I did that and I met some interesting people that way, I even made some friends. And, let me repeat one more time, I had no single problem. Just use your common sense and don't listen to people with prejudice. You will have a great time! Source(s): personal experience Other Travel Tips It is safe to walk the street. But I wouldn't recommend you go alone. If you do not have someone to accompany you go on a tour. lady the question should be, is it safe to walk on the streets of usa! the other day i saw a man try to rape another man! I wouldn't go alone. Don't get me wrong - I love Egypt, it's one of the most amazing places I ever visited. The problem is, when Egyptians see a Western woman, they are sure she's promiscuous. I had my butt pinched once in the market, some other guy followed me on the street, others came up to me and said totally inappropriate things - and my only "crime" was wearing jeans and a t-shirt. It's not that they're evil or misogynistic, it's just that Moslem's live in a very restrictive society and have heard "all about Western women". In short, go to Egypt, it's really amazing, but yo u MUST have a male companion. It is safe if someone travels the airlines into Egypt but once they reach the hotel they should not dress as many American do. It is a conservative country and one that thinks the women should not dress flamboyantly or in short clothes as many do in American. Old customs and traditions die hard and that makes it difficult for a woman to be treated on the same level as a man They are respected and engage in government and politics but there are rules of conduct attached.. When they leave the hotel it should be in the company of a man for they will be inundated with peddlers and children trying to get your money from This can prove to be quite intimidating and when they mob you it is hard to keep track of all your things. So you are an easier Target. Crowds gather quickly and you can easily be caught up into things at the bazzaars tpp The advice is to have a body guard with you at all times and you should travel by private car that is arranged ahead of time. Then you will be safer from all of the above. just as anywhere you have to be be careful |
