When is the best time to go on holiday in Egypt?

However, we recommend visiting from May to September as there are fewer people, and therefore, lower prices. Although temperatures may be a little high, they are alleviated by air conditioning and very dry air, so you still enjoy your trip.

Egypt is served by most international airlines, making it easy to get there from almost anywhere around the world. You can still get to the country by land, depending on your location, but flying is definitely the fastest way. A rental car or local taxis will help you to get around.
