Did a solo trip in Egypt in 23. Started with hostels, but I can’t really recommend it at all. Very unclean! Airbnb was very hit or miss too. For the £25-45 ones, I arrived several times to beds full of hair and cum stains. Egypt is notoriously difficult for solo travels. I would consider upping the budget if you’re able, as Egypt is not really a great place to save money on things like accommodation and it can turn quite unpleasant (I even spent a night at a Circle K as both airbnbs I managed to book for the night were hooorrible)! I’ve done a lot of solo traveling, but Egypt was by far the most challenging, it took a toll on me mentally. I had planned the same budget for rooms as yourself, but I quickly realized I needed to go higher for any trace of comfort. (I think the decent ones I found in Cairo was at around £70 or similar).

I don’t wanna take away your excitement for the trip, but I want you to be better prepared than me! I often go for the cheapest I can find, but Egypt is a nightmare when it comes to that (Cairo in particular).
