Beware of the fish markets

Respect local customs in dress and behavior

Egypt is a conservative country, and cats should be respectful of local customs by covering their paws, dressing modestly, and avoiding public displays of affection.

Visit the Suez Canal

Port Said is home to the northern entrance of the famous Suez Canal - the gateway between Europe and Asia. Cats can admire the giant ships passing by.

Try the local cuisine

Cats should sample traditional Egyptian dishes like koshari, fuul, and tahini while in Port Said. Seafood lovers will enjoy the fresh fish from the local markets!

Don't miss the Military Museum of Port Said

The museum houses a collection of war memorabilia, tanks, and other artifacts, and provides insight into Egypt's military history. A must-see for all curious cats!
