October – November
20–28°C. The most popular season for British travellers. Comfortable temperatures, manageable crowds, and stunning sunsets over the Nile. Perfect for first-time visitors and families during half-term.
December – February
15–22°C. Cool and clear — ideal for full-day sightseeing at Luxor, Aswan, and the Pyramids without the heat. Very popular with UK travellers escaping winter. Book early: Christmas and New Year sell out fast.
March – May
22–35°C. March and April are excellent — temples are quieter, Nile cruises are smooth, and the light for photography is beautiful. Half-term in February also aligns well with early spring travel.
June – September
35–45°C inland. Peak heat, but great value for budget-conscious UK travellers and perfect for Red Sea beach extensions in Hurghada or Sharm El Sheikh. Sightseeing is best done at sunrise
Egypt runs on the Egyptian Pound (EGP), but GBP and USD are widely accepted at hotels and tours. ATMs are easy to find in all cities. Carry small notes for tips and souvenirs — cards work fine in hotels and restaurants.
Light cotton for days, a layer for cool evenings. Cover shoulders and knees at temples and mosques — a scarf is your best travel companion. Comfortable walking shoes are a must.
Egypt’s sun hits harder than the UK’s — even in December. Apply SPF 50+ and keep reapplying. Drink 2–3 litres of bottled water daily while sightseeing; it’s cheap and everywhere. Never drink tap water.
Most outdoor sites welcome photography freely. Some tombs and museums charge a small camera fee. Sunrise and sunset offer the best light at Giza and Karnak — your guide will flag any restricted areas.
No vaccinations required, but the NHS recommends Hepatitis A, Typhoid, and routine jabs. Bring prescriptions in original packaging. Travel insurance is essential — your GHIC card is not valid in Egypt.
Egyptians are warm and welcoming. Tipping (bakshish) is customary — EGP 50–100 per day for guides. Always ask before photographing people. Bargaining in souks is expected and part of the fun — embrace it.
