Most restaurants and local shops accept Euro, US Dollars, English Pound Sterling as well as Egyptian Pounds. Some restaurants accept credit card payments too, but please note that a surcharge of 2-5% usually is added.
It is handy to have Egyptian Pounds in cash to avoid confusion over exchange rates. As the exchange rates for Euro, US Dollars and English Pound Sterling usually are considerably better in Egypt than in Europe, it can be good to bring any of these currencies in cash and exchange to Egyptian Pounds once here.
