Best time to visit Egypt!

This question  is not so easy to answer. Also just as perhaps as the question of what type of traveler I actually am.

In fact, over the years that I have been living in Egypt, my preferences have changed. When I first came from Germany, I felt the same as many people do. Longing for the sun, a preference for as little rain as possible, and blue skies. A summer must be hot, and one wants to be able to stay outside without being surprised by a rain shower. Undoubtedly, this often puts one in a good mood. However, the weather in Egypt – especially an Egyptian summer, which lasts about 4 months – can also be exhausting. Extreme heat forces stays in air-conditioned indoor spaces, mosquitoes and similar nice creatures are in their peak season. Those who can, escape the city towards the coast.

So, if I had described my travel type earlier as someone who can’t get enough of summer – I now also appreciate the Egyptian winter.  Even though it can get very cold here at night – especially in the desert. On our desert tours, for example, we highly recommend bringing a hat, scarf, and gloves for our popular Christmas trips.

As one can see from the weather itself – Egypt’s diversity is unbeatable and the best time to visit Egypt is all year round!.

In any case, Egypt beckons travelers year-round with its rich tapestry of history, culture, and natural beauty. From the iconic pyramids of Giza to the tranquil waters of the Red Sea, Egypt offers something for every type of traveler.

 However, to truly make the most of your visit and to find the best time to visit Egypt, it’s essential to understand the nuances of Egypt’s seasons and climate.
