2. What is the best time of year to visit Egypt?

The most pleasant months for exploring Egypt are from October to April, when temperatures are cooler and more comfortable for sightseeing. Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan experience mild days and cooler evenings during this period, making visits to temples, museums, and open-air sites much more enjoyable. Summer months (May to September) can be very hot, especially in Upper Egypt and desert areas, but it’s also a quieter time with fewer tourists and potentially lower hotel prices. If you love warm weather and want to enjoy the Red Sea beaches in Sharm El Sheikh or Hurghada, summer can still be a good choice.
