Introducing Egypt
Towering pyramids puncture Egypt’s sunny sky, while its bustling cities are full of adventures for travelers who wish to explore them. Take a camel on a ride through the undulating dunes of the Sahara, or sail down the River Nile to world-famous sites such as Karnak. Alternatively, go snorkeling and scuba diving in the warm shallows of the Red Sea at Sharm El Sheikh and experience a night out in Mount Sinai.
Arranging a customized Egypt tour is easy. Just get in touch with one of our local travel experts to get the ball rolling!
When to go to Egypt
For northerners, Egypt makes for a great winter getaway to warmer climes. Temperatures between December and February stay in the high teen's Celsius, which explains why this is the country’s peak season. This is also the best time to visit Egypt for anyone eager to explore Upper Egypt and its desert landscapes. The only months when personalized tours to Egypt are not recommended are June, July, and August, when average temperatures hit 33°C and highs can rise as far as 40°C. Learn more.
How long to stay in Egypt
A destination where you could spend a lifetime and still not see everything, it is difficult to decide how many days to spend in Egypt. Broadly speaking, Egyptian trips usually last between five days and two weeks. Most five-day Egypt itineraries include the Giza Pyramid Complex along with the alleyways of Cairo and the shores of the Mediterranean around Alexandria. However, with ten days to spare, you can also enjoy visits to the Valley of the Kings without feeling rushed. Go on a two-week trip if you want to discover the ancient monasteries of the Sinai Peninsula along with other gems of the country. Learn more.
Must-visit destinations in Egypt
Beyond Giza’s pyramids, those keen to experience the very best of ancient Egypt will want to visit Edfu and Aswan. The former is home to one of the most intact Egyptian temples in the country, while the latter provides a gateway to the breathtaking structures of Abu Simbel. For a different side to Egyptian culture, check out the Siwa Oasis, whose date palms and chirruping birds appear like a mirage in the desert. Then go on an offroad driving trip to White Desert National Park and see its chalk pinnacles sculpted into various shapes by the elements. Learn more.
