Traveling to Egypt as a couple in September

Hi everyone,

My partner and I are planning to visit Egypt in September for a week.

We’d most likely start in Hurghada first, and then explore other nearby places to see some legendary spots.

My first question—and probably the most important—is whether it’s safe to travel there in 2025 or if we should be concerned about security?

My second question: if we do go to Hurghada, could you recommend some standout spots not too far away with breathtaking views to make our romantic trip unforgettable?

Thanks in advance for all your tips! 😉

Hello everyone, There’s no risk in traveling to Egypt—just like anywhere else in the world, zero risk doesn’t exist, and some places have more risks than others. For a week, unless you’re diving or doing something similar, there isn’t much to do. You could try quad biking in the desert, but for visits to Cairo or Luxor, you’d need at least one night there to enjoy it a little. Otherwise, about 40 km north of Hurghada, there’s El Gouna, another seaside resort, but it feels like a little Venice. There’s also something like an animal-themed amusement park there. Thoutmosis
