Historically, Egypt is probably the world's oldest civilization having emerged from the
Nile River around 3,100 BC.
By about 3100 BC these communities have become sufficiently prosperous and stable.
The unifying of Upper and Lower Egypt into a single kingdom is the event pointed to by
the ancient Egyptians themselves as the beginning of their civilization.
From about 6000 BC various communities of hunter-gatherers make the Nile the center
of their territory, around which they roam. But the drying of the Sahara increasingly
confines them to the river area. The unusual habit of this great river flooding every year
and depositing a layer of rich moist soil on the surrounding region is ideally suited to the
development of settled agriculture. The river takes upon itself two otherwise laborious
tasks, irrigation and the enriching of the soil.
As its culture evolved and flourished as outlined below, it always remained distinctively
Egyptian in its religion, culture, arts, language and customs, despite the many wars.
foreign occupations and other forces that have shaped the people and their
environment over the past six thousand years.
After the Pharaonic and Greco-Roman periods, Christianity came to Egypt. For several
centuries Egypt was essentially a Christian country. The Muslim conquest in the seventh
century C . E. brought a new force, but it was some time before there was a Muslim
majority in Egypt. In the sixteenth century, Egypt became part of the Ottoman Empire,
ruled from Constantinople (now Istanbul).
On the eve of modernization, Napoleon and the French army conquered Egypt in 1798.
and remained through 1801. Many writers identify this period of three years as a major
turning point in Egyptian cultural history, while others argue that the process began
earlier and lasted longer.

Egypt's culture and traditions mainly are a mix of Pharaohs and tribal origin,
evolved throughout centuries. Here are some important modern traditions you
should know before visiting Egypt.
Egyptians are extremely friendly toward the foreigners and tourists. If asked,
people of Egypt will always share their service and enthusiasm with the people
whom hardly they know.
In Egypt, family integrity matters a lot and head of the family takes the entire
responsibility to run the family in proper manner and with great focus on
behavior.
Here people put special respect for family value and family relation. Perhaps this
is one of the reasons, traveling to Egypt is safer than any other top global
destinations, even for women traveling alone.
In Egypt tipping is cordially accepted and often expected. You can offer tips for all
the people who has helped you during your travel but do not offer them small
coins or notes. These activities are taken as insulting for the people you have
tipped. However, your tipping should be spontaneous.

Hurghada
Hurghada was once a fairly small and unimposing fishing village, located next to the Red
Sea and boasting a number of sandy beaches. Today, the resort town of Hurghada is
almost unrecognizable from its past life and has grown to become one of the most
visited tourist destination in Egypt, with more than 100 different hotels, many of which
line the shoreline. Hurghada is especially popular for its diving opportunities.

Alexandria
Located on the coast of the Mediterranean sea, Alexandria is Egypt's leading port and
transportation hub. Founded in 331 BC by Alexander the Great, the city was once
considered the crossroads of the world. Many of Alexandria's most famous historic sites,
including a library that housed more than 500,000 books, were destroyed by devastating
earthquakes in the 14th century. Today the city is a faded shade of its former glorious
cosmopolitan self, but still worth a visit for its many cultural attractions and glimpses of
its past.
Dahab
Dahab is located some 85 km (53 miles) north of Sharm el-Sheikh on the Gulf of Aqaba,
near the southern tip of Sinai. Once an isolated coastal village, Dahab turned into a
hippie hangout in the 1980's and became something of an "alternative resort", mixing
cheap accommodation with a laid back lifestyle. The combination of Red Sea and Sinai
desert make Dahab perfect for world class windsurfing, scuba diving, rock climbing and
desert trekking with the Bedouin.

Mid an El Tahrir is the very centre of the modern city: big hotels. transport

district where well-to-do Egyptians and higher class people live. built by a Belgian

AIESEC In Ain Shams University’s Accommodation takes place in the Down

Town in a hostel named Cairo View.

Egyptians refer to Downtown as Wust al-Balad, which can be poetically understood to mean “the heart of the
Egypt ”. This crowded, bustling district of Cairo certainly lives up to the name. It is not only the physical center of
Cairo, but also a hub for transportation, business, and culture, centered on Midan Talaat Harb and Midan Tahrir.

Downtown was built in the 1880’s as part of Khedive Ismail’s massive building project to modernize Cairo and
other Egyptian cities. The Khedive’s goal was to make like a European city and he set out to do this by hiring
European architects to design a whole new section of the city with wide boulevards and architecture that calls to
mind Paris during the same era. If you can handle the traffic that chokes Downtown much of the time today, it is
an interesting place to take a walk—full of faded relics of the grandeur of Cairo a century ago.

 HOSTING FAQs

Is there a certain dress code in Egypt?

No, there is generally no specific dress code. You’ll mostly be needing casual outfits, and possibly one smart
outfit. For girls, it is recommended to avoid wearing revealing clothing, due to the nature of the Egyptian
culture and tradition.

Are smoking and drinking allowed or not?

Regarding smoking, you are free to smoke wherever you please, given that the place you are in allows it. Smoking in the
apartment is extremely prohibited.
As for drinking, this is prohibited in both the apartment and public places, as it is against the Egyptian culture. However,
you will find specific private places, such as pubs and clubs which allow drinking.

Everything in Egypt is pretty cheap. Breakfast can be for 10 EGP which is approximately 70 Cent USD.
We recommend that you bring with you at least 200 USD for your daily expenses, and 600 USD more for travelling within Egypt, trips and
outings.

What to pack?
Generally, you’re going to need all the essentials. Clothing of course, but make sure you bring formal attire as well for any occasions. Also, bring
with you bed sheets, an electric plug and your laptop. It would be great if you could get with you a flag from your home country, traditional
