Last year I bought an Orange Sim Card at Cairo Airport on arrival and I was very happy with it. Good amount of GB for 3 weeks for a reasonable price. And the guy at the Orange Desk was very helpful with setting up the phone because all the messages you get are in Arabic. :)
That is correct. Service is good, you just gotta be prepared to pay a couple dollars more
@@TravelTomTom I'm in Hurghada right now. Got a sim with 18gb for 8 euros. Good deal in my opinion.
thank you for your sim card info! traveling to Egypt for 26 days in 4 days!
Oh how cool! Enjooooooy
Thank you for the recommendation.
Happy to help
Welcome to Egypt bro, I was planning to make the same journey from South Africa to Egypt and then I found your vlogs
Thanks. Cool to hear. Most content is up on Instagram though… same name
Was it difficult or not to travel around Africa while the COVID restrictions?
Finally thanks Tom.
Haha you were waiting for it?
@@TravelTomTom haha yeah.
@@DiamondBevz haha awesome I love it! Will also upload one tmw from Cairo Airport.
@@TravelTomTom Nice. Looking forward for that. Enjoy ur Egypt trip Tom. Hopefully I could travel too soon ☺️
thx I needed a sim + data plan to keep connected and take uber
Great then get yourself one in Egypt or get an e-sim card. See link description
Thank you Travel Tom. So helpful! Do you know or anyone reading know about using ATT and their International Day Pass in Egypt? I used it in El Salvador and Guatemala and it worked great. What about Egypt?
I’ve had zero problems with ATT in Egypt. Your data isn’t super fast, but I used Uber and internet on my phone all over Egypt without issue with my international
GREAT VIEW OF THE CITY FROM THAT BALCONY!!! WHAT'S THE NAME OF THAT HOTEL THE ONE WITH THE VIEW OF THAT COLUME IN THE MIDDLE WITH ALL THOSE CARS DRIVING AROUND IT!! I AM GOING TO VACTION IN CAIRO EGYPT SOON
Anyone used a One Plus (mine is 7 Pro) in Egypt and able to get it to work with a SIM? Having a hard time assessing if my phone will work with this.
Hi. what was the tariff you chose, how much did the 40gb cost. Thank you
Does the same company offer broadband wifi? Planning to go but need to use my laptop for work and need some kind of broadband wifi
Hello and many thanks for this information. Ill be in Egypt for 7 days. How many units do you recommend? Also do I have to get my phone unlocked? Thanks
Yes yes get your phone unlocked, that is requirement no. 1. I use 1,5 GB per day. But this is my life/job
@@TravelTomTom Thank you.
Will get there on 12 rd March during Ramadan times🎉 i have a question buy at the Airport or downtown at cell phone shop which one is more easier !
That is of course at airport. Open 24h
Dude, good stuff but if you had a better camera especially with better "sound quality" you'd be crushing it even more. (Says the guy with 50 subs and awful sound quality, I gotta work on that too...)
Haha yeah everything is just iPhone and you are right about the sound quality. Sometimes it is cringe.... hahahaha. But yeah I make videos just for informing people. May be if I go more pro, I will buy a suitable camera. I like photography too much and already have a beast of a camera in my hand luggage to shoot instagram photos.
@@TravelTomTom cool man, i just got the Osmo Pocket 2 and i love it and the sound right of the camera is pretty good 👍 and it's small and easy to vlog with... I know that a bigger camera is good to have but a bit of a drag to carry and use. You put a lot of effort in editing and filming so you might as well make the most of it! I'll head to Egypt tomorrow btw so thanks for the tips, cheers man!
Hi man, I have a connecting flight through egypt, do you now if I willbe able to get a sim card while waitingfor my next flight?
You can go out and go back through security if you want
I watched the entire video, read the blog and still haven't found the essential info about Egyptian sim cards. The very important question you missed to answer: Is tethering possible with those tourist sim cards in Egypt? As a lot of providers around the world block tethering! Thanks
Yes tethering is possible. The days that tethering in many countries around are blocked are over long ago. Tethering is in 99/100 possible nowadays. In fact I cant even remember which country this blocks tethering on prepaid sim cards.
@@TravelTomTom That's not quite true. It's not about country. It depends on the provider. For instance in Panama, I use Tigo. That provider blocks tethering but not sure about other providers in Panama. Moreover, many providers block tethering while roaming. Roaming is another topic, though.
come back to nepal
I cant wait! Love Nepal
🇪🇬🤗♥️
Do we need an unlocked cell or no
Yes you need!
We in Egypt now asking the goverment for pakedge ( internet + calling ) like all world, but they still thinking!!
For sure they earn sooooo much by keeping it like that, but i hope it'll change 1 day.
My name' Ossama , Egyption lives in Switzerland.
Thank you Ossama. What do you mean exactly?
Hi , he meant that here in Egypt, mobile network providers plans are somewhat different from what you can find in other countries,
Here , most selling plans offers you units rather than GB + calls + sms s
You can use units as you need , , if you call someone, or text someone, or surfing the Web, , you use from your available units
Unit = 1 megabyte
Unit = 1 minute " for the same operator "
5 units = 1 minute to another operator
Sms cost u 5 units
And it is very annoying thing , and pricy
Hi@@amrsaed.
I know what did u mean, in EGY telecom companys steel the Egyption's money!
Its REALLY Costs & high prices for just KB INTERNET!
EVEN IF THERE'S internet service for just whatsapp & messenger!
Egypt its the ONLY LAND ON EARTH with soooo much costs in telephon calls & internet !
I'm an Egyption but i swear i'm sooooo sad for that!
Your links are no longer working
Are you sure? Just tried and it works
Dio
???
The plan Flex 200 + Plus 120, does that mean I get 24000 of local call time and 20GB of data? Thanks in advance.
No means 24,000 units -> 24 GB OR calling
Do you know if there is esim in egypt?
Yes but not offered for prepaid costumers yet
