Applying for a visa can often be an obstacle that forces many Egyptians to cancel travel plans or delay them, whether due to fear of being rejected, or unaffordable application costs.
Despite ranking in the 94th place out of 112 countries on Henley and Partners’ (H&P) 2022 passport global ranking, the Egyptian passport is given visa-free access to a few countries. Yet, many Egyptians are not aware that they can travel to some of the most beautiful destinations, be it for honeymoon, vacation, or even work or study abroad, without having to worry about visa processes.
Here are a few countries Egyptians can travel to without a visa.

Famously known as one of the top honeymoon destinations, Mauritius is an island country located off the southeast coast of the African continent in the Indian Ocean.
From heavenly beaches and fun water sports, to a vibrant culture, African wildlife, and attractive resorts, Mauritius is an ideal tourism destination.
The best time to visit Mauritius is at the end of the year, between October and December. The friendliness of Mauritians to tourists is also another reason to visit.

However, summer months might be challenging for those who are not accustomed to hot weather. Petra, Wadi Rum, the Dead Sea, Jerash Ruins, and Aqaba are not to miss when visiting Jordan.
Egyptian travelers can stay in Jordan for a maximum of 30 days.
