How welcoming is Egypt to LGBTQ travellers?

Category: Egypt Trip FAQs

Egypt can be a challenging destination for LGBTQIA+ travelers, as homosexuality is not officially outlawed, but gay men and transgender individuals have been prosecuted under laws related to morality, public order, and debauchery. Discrimination and harassment towards the LGBTQIA+ community can also occur, particularly outside of major tourist areas. That being said, there are pockets of relative safety for LGBTQIA+ travelers and some LGBTQIA+ travelers have reported positive experiences in Egypt. It’s recommended that LGBTQIA+ travelers exercise discretion and avoid public displays of affection, and consider traveling with a trusted tour operator that has experience working with LGBTQIA+ travelers.
