Plan 7–10 days for Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan. Add several more days if you want a leisurely Nile cruise, time at the Red Sea, or a visit to Alexandria.
-
October through April offers the most comfortable temperatures. December through February is cooler but also busier. Summer can be extremely hot, particularly around Luxor and Aswan.
-
Cash remains important for tips, markets, small restaurants, taxis, and local purchases. Cards are generally accepted at larger hotels, restaurants, and tourist businesses. Keep small Egyptian-pound notes available.
-
Domestic flights save time between distant areas. Trains connect Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan, while private drivers, organized tours, and Nile cruises are convenient for sightseeing.
-
Bring lightweight, breathable clothing that covers your shoulders and knees, comfortable shoes, sun protection, and a scarf. Pack a light jacket for cool desert evenings and air-conditioned spaces.
