The ferry is nowhere near Hamees bar, Sunset boat.
Much further along now. Walk directly up from the ferry on to the main road and loads of micro buses passing to take you to Karnak.

The Egyptian figures for Covid cases are a prime example of Trump’s answer to the pandemic.
If you don’t test....there’s no evidence of widespread infection! Q.E.D.
Looks like Boots are doing pcr tests if anyone is interested.

That includes travel certificates, certificate to enable you to work (Required Weekly) swab or lateral flow tests. A worker has to have a weekly test and obtain a certificate to continue employment,...
I guess this is good news for some. The question is which countries would accept this instead of a stamped PCR test. We would still need a PCR test before we come back to the UK.
