People are friendly but dont let them fool you or overcharge you. Use the new capital taxis known as Taxi al A'sema, which are clean, reasonably priced and have air conditioning. The Egyptian Pound is worth about a tenth of a UK Pound and Egypt is much cheaper than the UK so bear that in mind.

Preferably use bottled drinking water like Schweppes, Nestle, Aqua and Baraka. University students like to practice their English so don't be baffled if they try to talk to you. You will know them because they use complicated vocabulary compared with street vendors who may try to rip you off in their simple English. I am an Egyptian who lived in England some years ago and adored the Brits I hope you have a wonderful time in Egypt.
