All ppl r replying the Q as if they know when u r coming to Egypt !!! Actually it depends on the way u look at it, here we r living our lives very normal, we neglected the ppl in Tahrir sq. as if they don't exist and we r continuing our live normally.
If u r here in Egypt to travel enjoy ur time and see different cultures u will enjoy, i recommend that u don't hesitate to travel specially because of the media false announcements travelers are avoiding Egypt and the prices went down.
I shall be glad to help u on any more information u might need, pls don't hesitate to contact me , my e mail ahmdwagih@yahoo.com
wish u a pleasant trip.
Regards

First, let me welcome you to Egypt.
About the safety issue; I believe it is quite safe to tour Egypt; however, it is strongly advisable not to be on your own in the streets.
Women get harassed a lot in the streets and I as an Egyptian women I am quite reluctant to walk freely by myself, especially in the popular regions.
I am talking of course about Cairo, other touristic governorates like Sharm el Sheikh and Hurghada, I do not know but imagine they are much safer.
Enjoy.

It's hard to tell if it is safe right now. If you want to see Tahrir Square, Egyptian Museum or the area in the central Cairo, it's better to postponed your travelling. If you are interested in different parts of the city, you can go - it is safe.
