- • Dine in local residential neighborhoods like El Dahar rather than tourist marinas to save up to 50% on meals.
- • Book diving and snorkeling trips directly with licensed local operators rather than hotel tour desks.
- • Pay in Egyptian Pounds (EGP) rather than USD or EUR to prevent dynamic currency conversion losses.
