Hello, I'm going to Egypt next week. I'm leaving from Tokyo. Can you give me any advise of what clothes to wear? I'm non-muslim, can I wear short-sleeved shirts? What do I have to wear?
Can you give me any tips or what to pack?

Why wouldn't u wear sleeveless shirts when Egyptian women wear it, just try to be plainly dressed nothing provocative and nothing too tight or too exposed because that might attract some undesired attention and undesired comments. Other than that i think u should have eyes drops because at this time of the year the weather can be a bit dusty, if u wear contact lenses be sure to take them off and use ur glasses.
The weather is fine, besides the seasonal dusty wind that hits Cairo in particular.
Egyptians are very friendly, be firm though with salesmen and those people who come out of the blue at tourist sites, be firm and always ask some1 u trust before u buy anything. If u will take a taxi, ask before u ride how much it will cost( that is if u will take a black and white taxi), for the city cab ( yellow taxis) the meters are running so there wont be a problem there.
Try to embrace the culture of the people, its a very friendly vibrant culture and I assure u will have a great time. Its always a pleasure knowing some1 enjoyed his visit in Egypt.
Have fun.

hey calm down, egypt is a great country. Weather is not as hot as some people are saying. Just wear long sleeves when walking in the streets and avoid shorts that is it. No need to pack anything.

It will be hot in Egypt, but not as hot as it will get in the coming months. Pack cotton clothes; short-sleeved shirts are fine. Take comfortable walking shoes and be sure to pack cotton socks. A sweater or light jacket will provide warmth in the evening, because once the sun goes down over the vast desert, the air cools rapidly. Take a hat, sunscreen, and dark glasses. Egypt is absolutely fascinating; your vacation will be exciting and thrilling. Be sure to have an Egyptian guide throughout your trip to enhance every experience and provide tourist security throughout the country. Pack a copy of your passport in your suitcase, making it much easier to replace your passport in case your original is lost. Be sure to try Egyptian orange juice (so sweet!) and falafel. Bon voyage!

Egypt will win one million-zero and Abu treka is the only who's going to attain. The target will probably be within the first part time or the starting of the moment part. It would be the first target an African group ratings in opposition to Brazil and the primary victory.

Your going to want to wear very thin clothing , and preferably white. Go with a local hat/headscarf and do as the locals do!

You can wear whatever you want. I wouldn't wear a tank top and short shorts, but you can pretty much wear whatever.

If you enter a mosque make sure your hair is covered. Dress modestly. No skin tight clothing. Nothing revealing.
