FAQs about flying to Egypt

Egypt climate

Summer runs June through September and temperatures are extremely hot (up to 31 degrees on average along the coast and up to 50 degrees in Aswan). Winter (October to May) temperatures are warm and is also a good time to book your flights.

What is good to know if travelling to Egypt?

  • At the Khan El Khalili bazaar, the most popular items to haggle for are Backgammon boards and trinket boxes with mother-of-pearl inlay.
  • At Giza, the Pyramid of King Chefren, which stands beside the Pyramid of King Cheops, is cheaper to visit, and, some argue, just as interesting.
  • Cairo’s oldest mosque is the Ibn Tulun mosque. Climb the minaret – tipping the guardian of course – and enjoy the views of Cairo.
  • The Gayer Anderson Museum, beside the Ibn Tulun mosque, is a fascinating museum. It consists of two houses, one built in the 1500s, the other in the 1600s., both wonderfully preserved, with Gayer Anderson’s collection of art and furnishings. Gayer Anderson was a British Major, collector and self-described Orientalist.
  • In Alexandria, little survives from Cleopatra’s time. Marine archaeologists are excavating in the Fort Qait area, and have discovered some remains that may be from the Pharos Lighthouse, one of the wonders of the ancient world. To experience the city, idle along the Corniche, enjoy meze and fish in the seafood restaurants and smoke a water pipe in the pavement cafés.
  • Egypt runs on baksheesh (tipping). Visitors are expected to give to everyone who helps them, even in minor ways such as holding open a door, a tip. Keep a roll of small notes on you. Haggling is expected too.
  • Give your children something they can share with their school friends by showing them the history of Ancient Egypt and their pyramids.

  • When is the best time to fly to Egypt?

    The best time to take cheap flights to Egypt is between December and February. Most visit Upper Egypt (the south) between October and February.

Off Season: May until October is low season. This is when temperatures are highest, especially in Upper Egypt. If you can brave the heat, you will be able to enjoy the country in relative solitude. Cairo will be busy during the summer months as Middle Eastern tourists take their holidays then. Shoulder Season:> The Egyptian spring (March, April, May) and autumn (September, October, November) are great times to visit. The temperatures are moderate. The Khamsin wind blows in March and April, bringing sand and dust.
