In general, as long as you have a full current passport that’s valid for at least 6 months then you will be ok. A visa is required but this is purchased for about $25 on arrival in Egypt, all Egyptian Wonders clients will be able to skip the queues for the visa purchase as this will be organised for you and added to your onboard account for your convenience.

All foreign nationals are required to obtain valid entry visas to enter Egypt, with certain exceptions for nationals of countries that do not require visas for Egypt. Most Europeans, North Americans and other nationals can obtain tourist visas, valid for up to three months, at the port of entry for about $25.

Tourist visas are issued to foreign nationals visiting Egypt for recreational purposes, or to foreign nationals whose stay in Egypt will not exceed three months. It is possible to renew this visa for similar durations after transferring US$180 for each month of additional time to an Egyptian bank.

Please be aware that it is your responsibility to obtain visas and to make sure you have a passport with at least 6 months validity on it.
