Season Overview
Egypt is a year-round destination, but the ideal time depends on your itinerary. The cool season from October to April is best for Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan sightseeing (20–28°C). The Red Sea coast enjoys warm water and sunshine even in winter.
Month-by-Month
- Oct–Nov & Mar–Apr — Peak season; perfect weather everywhere
- Dec–Feb — Mild days, cool evenings in Cairo/Luxor; ideal for Nile cruises
- May–Sep — Hot inland; best for Red Sea beach and diving holidays
