TL;DR
Easiest option is to buy an eSIM in advance via an app like eSIM Trip — it works right after landing and is cheap. Physical Egyptian SIM cards can be bought locally (for single use), while the M8 tourist SIM works across multiple countries.
What the community said
Someone asked what M8 is and how to buy it — it's a multi-country tourist SIM card, not limited to Egypt only.
