customs in over 50 countries

More than 90 percent of all Egyptians are Muslims, and the principles of Islam guide virtually every aspect of Egyptian life—from dress and dietary restrictions to laws, business relationships, and social customs. Travelers bringing gifts should be aware of Islamic restrictions on items commonly exchanged in other cultures.
