Should I bring US dollars or small gifts for tips in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt?

An Alenka chocolate bar can be added to cash as a small, personal gesture. On its own, it is less universally useful than cash.

A practical compromise is to bring both US dollars and a few small chocolate bars: use cash as the main tip and offer sweets as an optional extra.

Cash US dollars are described as the preferred option for small tips and thank-yous in Egypt. Bring some even if you also plan to give chocolate.
