When Should You Visit Egypt?

Egypt is a year-round destination, but timing your visit can significantly impact your experience. The best time to visit depends on your priorities: perfect weather, avoiding crowds, or finding deals.

Winter: Peak Season

December through February offers the most comfortable temperatures for sightseeing (15-25°C). This is peak tourist season with higher prices and more crowds at major sites.

Spring: Shoulder Season

March through May brings warming temperatures and fewer tourists. Perfect for those seeking a balance of good weather and thinner crowds.

Summer: Budget Season

June through August is hot (35-45°C) but offers significant discounts. Best for Red Sea beach resorts and budget travelers.

Fall: Sweet Spot

September through November is often considered the ideal time, with cooling temperatures, fewer crowds, and reasonable prices.
