Did Solon go to Egypt?

Solon therefore unlikely considered travelling to Egypt for his apodemia (10-year period abroad). It is concluded that since Solon had never visited Egypt, Plato's story of Atlantis that Solon supposedly overheard from Saitic priests is wholly fiction.

He forbade the export of produce other than olive oil, minted new Athenian coinage on a more universal standard, reformed the standard of weights and measures, and granted immigrant craftsmen citizenship. Reforms also affected the political structure of Athens.
