Best time to Visit Egypt
The time from November to March, when the
temperature and weather remain pleasant, is the
best time to visit Egypt. At nights it does not
get chilly or uncomfortable. However, if you are
planning to do water activities during these
months be aware the water will be a bit cool..
Winter in Egypt is the peak season for tourism
when hotels and other rates might go on the upper
side, but for an ideal Egypt trip, this is the
best season.
