Getting around Egypt often involves long travel distances, with limited public transport, and occasional delays, especially between cities like Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan. Our Egypt holiday packages take the guesswork out of coordinating transport and accommodations, as well as site access. Joining a tour or a cruise is one of the most practical ways for many travelers to explore the country. And if you’re hoping to avoid common travel snags, the tips below will help you plan a smoother, more rewarding journey.
Choose the right season for your visit
Egypt is sunny throughout the year and sees very little rain, but the best time to travel depends on your comfort with heat and your planned activities.
Winter (October to April) is the most comfortable season for sightseeing. Days are pleasantly warm, while evenings are cool — perfect for visiting ancient sites or exploring the desert. December and January tend to draw large crowds, so consider avoiding peak weeks if you prefer fewer tourists.
Expect soaring temperatures (especially inland) in the summer season that stretches from May to September. While it’s not ideal for sightseeing in cities or deserts, it’s a great time to relax in Egypt’s beach towns or go diving. The Red Sea offers the best chance to spot dolphins and hammerhead sharks during these months.
