Casinos in Egypt
Egypt has more casinos than any other Arab nation. At last count, there were 26 large-scale casinos across the country (20 are in Cairo), along with one cruise-ship casino sailing the Nile. Because Egypt is such a popular tourist destination, Egyptian casinos cater heavily to tourists, and are located in busy areas, or attached to large and fancy hotels. Casinos in Egypt are open 24 hours and all games are played exclusively in US Dollars. Locals must change their money in the lobby when playing at these large casinos in Egypt.

Online Casinos in Egypt
Online Egyptian casinos are not so numerous. The government of Egypt does not give licenses that allow companies to offer gambling services on the internet. At the same time, there is no legislation that prevents or even deals with online gambling in Egypt. In the end, while there are no true Egyptian internet casinos, players can still use foreign online casino websites. Most foreign online casinos are in English, but a few offer Arabic translations. Some day there might be real online Egyptian casinos, but until then, foreign casinos online must suffice.
