How much money do you need to take with you?
Hi all!!! My friend and I are going abroad for the first time at the end of February. We are on an all inclusive program. Tell me how much you need to take with you $. Excluding excursions, and so that it is enough for all sorts of fruits, souvenirs, etc.

It’s a difficult question because I don’t know your requests, but I’ll try to enlighten you anyway. Souvenirs in Egypt are cheap compared to Turkey, for example, a large sympathetic hookah will cost you a bargain (it’s always necessary to bargain until you leave the trading shop and then they will catch up with you and say that you have agreed) about 30 dollars Papyrus, depending on the size, from $3 small to $40 for a desk. For $40 I bought a rug made of camel wool with a national Egyptian pattern. They have fragrant oils a little expensive, although you can take them in small portions. You are going to a foreign country. You will bring the extra ones back.

If it's economical, then it's enough. From fruits I advise strawberries, pomegranates, mangoes, persimmons, grapes. Watermelon, melon are tasteless.

as operators advise - how much you pay for a ticket - take so much cash, for sure, checked.

As I understand it, you have a beach tour, then this money will be enough for you for sure. And if you want to see the sights, then you need to buy a completely different tour - for example, a 4-day Nile tour with a trip to Luxor or the Pyramids

Enough with your head!!! Souvenirs, even more so! True, do not buy everything in the atel or nearby ... Walk around, take a walk, walk along their famous SHERIE street ... Bargaining is a must!!! AND, MOST IMPORTANTLY, CHANGE A COUPLE OF HUNDREDS FOR FROM POUNDS. Examine them carefully. Some bills are very similar (by the way, in my opinion, their 50 pounds (kopecks) look better than their 50 pounds !!!). Just why I am writing this, it will be 3 times cheaper for you to pay in pounds, not dollars. If you are from Ukraine, then the rate is approximately 1 pound to 1 UAH. I don't know Russian. Get somewhere like this!!! Taxi ... 5-10 pounds around the city, do not try to give more (if you don’t want to, a taxi driver, feel free to send him !!!! In a couple of seconds, someone who will happily take you where you need to go!!!) Good luck!! ! Have a nice rest! More....
be sure to visit the restaurant STARFISH or FISHHOUSE (the first is better) For two with a friend, for 15-20 bucks you eat delicious grilled shrimp with vegetables and salads, and I highly recommend them "soup" with squid, super fish, crab and shrimp !!! Don't miss the opportunity!!!!

lili-payn, Well, what kind of operators advise this ?? Those. having gone to ultraall that year for 3300 we had to take another 3300?!? And those who fly for 800 (for example, on burning ones or on HB to a cheap hotel) take 800 and have enough for dinners, souvenirs and drinks ???))). Together with an excursion to Israel and a hammam with aroma massage, we spent a thousand. The more services included in the cost of the tour, the less cash you need to take with you.
It is better to estimate the cost of the planned excursions in advance and add 300-500 dollars for pocket expenses and for all sorts of sudden force majeure. It is better to take banknotes of 10-20-50. So it will be possible to change parts without accumulating extra pounds)))

How much you take, so much you spend :)-checked! And it’s not worth spending more than $ 200 on souvenirs, anyway, then they are lying on the distant shelves))) Incl. $200-400 is enough for expenses, not including excursions. Have a nice holiday!
