egypt tours

Travelling to Egypt and deciding when is really part of you decision to tour Egypt .
 If you are more into sightseeing and Historical places then the best time to go is during winter time best months between October till April .but it will be fabulous during Christmas & new year holidays . No matter what the weather, the nights can get cold so always wear layers. During the hottest months of summer, the nights are warm and balmy, but it can be really windy on the coasts. The sun is extremely strong all year round so take a hat and have plenty of sun block creams. 

If you are into swimming, snorkeling and diving in the Red sea , clubbing with sand between your feet and getting a real nice tan, then there is no reason not to head to Sharm el-Sheikh or Hurghada during the very hot months of summer where 38 - 45 degrees.

Also remember that places in the south like Aswan are hot during the summer. Egypt is close to deserts so there is always sand in the air so forget about wearing contact lenses during windy month in spring season. Make sure you take your sun glasses. 

Be careful on hot days. If you want to see sites during hot days, either go early in the morning or late in the day. Do enjoy a stroll along the Nile in the evening as there will be a cool breeze and lots of people watching going on or try a felucca ride.

Either season, the winds can be strong and during the early months of spring, there is a risk of sandstorms in Egypt, the khamsen. When the khamsenis blowing, you can do nothing but stay inside and wait until it has passed. Sightseeing is not possible during a sandstorm. Windy summer nights are nice, but be careful during the day, as the wind sometimes fool you so that you do not feel the heat and the rays from the sun and you will burn easily.
