When to visit Egypt?

Egypt’s hot and sunny weather makes it great for year-round tourism, however, most visitors choose to visit during October and April, when temperatures are mild. Tourists exploring Egypt during the summer months (June through September) will enjoy fewer people and better bargains but will have to face the blazing sun, scheduling sightseeing in the early morning and late afternoon.

Egypt’s peak tourism season begins in the winter (December through January), so expect crowds at popular tourist destinations. If you cannot escape the school holidays, March is a good month to visit with its pleasant weather and fewer crowds.
