FAQ

Do I need a visa to go to Egypt?

The best way is to get an e-visa online. Beware to use official website (https://visa2egypt.gov.eg/). The visa costs 25USD - other websites will charge you more. Check also the list of countries that can apply for an E-Visa.


According To your country of origin, you might be able to purchase a visa on arrival at the airport (right before the customs passenger clearance, at the booths of “Bank of Egypt”).

Which Airport shall I book my trip to?

Both the Cairo International Airport (CAI) and Sphinx International Airport (SPX) are approximately 1h taxi drive away from the convention space. Check both airports to get the best deal!


How do I get from the Airport to the Convention?

Easiest will be to take a taxi from the airport directly to the Sakkara Country Club (pinpoint below). If you buy a SIM card in the Airport (highly recommended) you can directly use Uber to see the prices. It shall not cost you more than 20€ the ride.


We will organize a spreadsheet to collect arrival flight information, so you can get in touch with other participants and conveniently share your taxi to the convention.


Can I arrange the transfer or pick up with you? 

The days coming to the convention, we will be very busy getting everything ready. While we will not be able to organize pickups, we will put you in contact with each other so you can share taxi rides.


If you arrive alone and/or you feel uncomfortable in such a different environment, just reach out and we will definitely help you out!

What about the internet?

While Wi-Fi exists and is provided at the reception and restaurant of the convention, do not trust its stability or its speed for critical actions. In Egypt, more investment is put in the mobile infrastructure than the landlines. Thus, getting a SIM card at the airport will be your best bet at having high-speed reliable internet anywhere in the convention and during your traveling.

Is it cold at night? Is it hot during the day?

Weather data shows that typically, the temperature can go down to 18°C at night (exceptionally below), and it rises during the day reaching 24°C between 7am to 10am, and potentially 29°C at some point between 12 and 3 pm (not every day reached that milestone).


This means, you will need a light blanket or sleeping bag during the night, and perhaps a sweater for the first minutes of the morning yoga sessions or the evening therapeutics. The rest of the day you will run very comfortably in fully summer attire.

At what time exactly does the convention begin and end?

The convention begins on Sunday 20th at 14h with the opening circle and the first acro workshops.


The convention ends on Saturday the 26th at 14h with lunch, which is included. There are not any further activities planned in the afternoon, but you can still jam and enjoy the pool the rest of the day.

Can I arrive a day earlier? Or depart a day later?

Right before and right after the convention, the Sakkara Country Club operates as a hotel. We have been given the following rates for the rooms or the camping area, which always include full board:


We can book the nights for you and collect the payment together with your Convention Registration.

How much is the post-convention trip?

The post convention trip price will ultimately depend on the amount of participants. The prices will still be published but the dates are set (27th - 31st October, 2024). The details will be published here https://www.letstribe.co/eac/luxor
