To stay cool, start sightseeing early in the morning, wear light, breathable clothing, and drink plenty of water. Stick to air-conditioned transportation and indoor attractions like the Egyptian Museum during peak heat hours. If visiting outdoor sites like the Pyramids or temples, bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen for protection.
Summer in Egypt (June to August) can be extremely hot, especially in desert areas like Luxor and Aswan, where temperatures can exceed 40°C (104°F). However, it’s a great time to visit coastal destinations like Hurghada and Sharm El-Sheikh, where the Red Sea breeze makes the weather more pleasant. If you don’t mind the heat, summer offers fewer crowds, lower prices, and great deals on hotels and tours.
Most international airports in Egypt, including Cairo International Airport, offer airport taxis and private car services. You can also use ride-hailing apps like Uber and Careem, which are available at major airports. Hotel shuttles may also be available, so it’s worth checking with your hotel in advance. Currency exchange at the airport can help if you need local cash for transport.
- Cairo to Luxor: The distance is about 670 km (416 miles). You can travel by train, which takes around 9-12 hours, or by flight, which takes about 1 hour. Alternatively, you can take a bus or private car, but the journey will take much longer (about 10-12 hours).
- Cairo to Aswan: The distance is about 880 km (547 miles). You can travel by train (about 12-14 hours), flight (about 1 hour), or bus (about 13-15 hours).
Nile cruises are a popular way to travel between Luxor and Aswan, offering a relaxing way to see Egypt’s ancient sites along the river. Feluccas (traditional sailboats) are also available for shorter trips or private tours on the Nile, especially in places like Cairo and Aswan. For faster options, there are motorboats for day trips along the Nile.

The best time for a Nile cruise is between October and April. During these months, the weather is cooler and more comfortable for sightseeing, with temperatures ranging between 68°F and 86°F (20°C to 30°C). This period is ideal for exploring Egypt’s iconic landmarks without the intense heat of summer.
Peak season usually falls between December and February, when many tourists visit, so booking in advance is recommended. If you prefer milder temperatures, avoid the summer months (June to August).
When visiting Egypt, you should try popular dishes like Koshari, a mix of rice, lentils, and pasta, and Ful Medames, a hearty fava bean breakfast. Don't miss Ta'ameya, Egypt's version of falafel, or delicious desserts like Basbousa and Konafa. These dishes offer a delicious taste of Egypt's rich culinary traditions.
