We are leaving for Jordan and Egypt in 13 days and have been trying to find out what power adaptor we need for our camera and hair dryer.
Just wondered if past travellers from Australia could advise, please.
Thanks
Betty

Hi Betty,

they use the same 2 pin sockets and plugs as most of Europe.

See: http://www.levoyageur.net/plug-country-Egypt.html.

The mains voltage is 220 volts.

I believe Phil is correct in general. However, in the Marriott in Cairo our room had standard UK plugs. That is three rectangular pins.


When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable.
