Important Notice – Egypt Energy-Saving Measures
Kindly note that as of March 28, the Egyptian government is implementing temporary emergency energy-saving measures due to a significant increase in the cost of power resources, including electricity, gas, gasoline, and fuel.
Under a new directive announced by Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, all restaurants, cafés, and shopping venues will be required to close at 9:00 PM, with an exception on Fridays when closing time will be at 10:00 PM.
These measures will come into effect on Saturday, March 28, and are expected to remain in place for a period of one month.
Please note:
All touristic hotels, tourist restaurants, and major tourist sites will continue to operate as usual and are not affected by these restrictions.
