Egyptian Pounds

Hello fellow travelers: I am leaving for Egypt 4-5-20 trip. I was trying to purchase some Egyptian pounds thru Bank of America. They are not selling. Did anyone buy money before they got there?

  • I went to Egypt a few years ago (before Tauck reinstated its trips), and recollect that I could not buy Egyptian pounds in the US (though it would have been through TD Bank). I went to an ATM my first day in Egypt, though not at the airport.

  • Buying foreign currency in the US is the worst place to do so. Use an ATM at your destination.

  • We went on this trip in January (seems like ages ago). We got pounds at the first hotel’s ATM.
