What is the best time to visit Egypt?
The best time to visit Egypt is between October and April, when daytime temperatures are comfortable for sightseeing at Giza, Luxor and Aswan. As of September 2026, this cooler window is still the most popular stretch, so book accommodation and Nile cruises a few months ahead if you're traveling over the winter holidays.
May through September brings much higher heat, especially in Upper Egypt (Luxor and Aswan can pass 40°C), which suits travelers who prefer quieter sites and lower prices but want to plan around midday heat with earlier starts and more time by the water in Hurghada or the Red Sea.
What this does not cover: exact weather forecasts for your travel dates — Egypt's climate is generally dry and predictable, but always check closer to departure.
Whichever season you choose, mornings are the best time for temple visits, before the heat and the crowds arrive.
