Best places to visit in Egypt

  • Luxor: An archaeologist's dream, Luxor offers a comprehensive glimpse into Egypt’s ancient past. Visit the Karnak Temple Complex, thought to be one of the biggest religious buildings in the world or take a trip to Medinet Habu, an ornately decorated temple on the west bank. From here you can also visit Valley of the Kings or take a hot air balloon ride over the city and its sights.
  • Sharm-El-Sheikh: this resort town on the Red Sea Coast is popular with visitors because of its clear azure sea, white sands and beautiful coral reefs. For those who want to explore the world under the sea, whether through snorkeling or deep-sea diving this is the place to be. Dive sites allow you to explore both the diversity of marine life and some of the wrecks nestled on the sea bed.
  • Aswan: After the frantic activity and energy in the bigger cities, treat yourself to some relaxation time in Aswan. Set on the meandering River Nile, this town has options to help you wind down. Take a sunset felucca trip around the islands off Aswan or hop on a camel to go and visit the Monastery of St Simeon or take a ferry over to Elephantine Island to see the ancient Nubian villages.

Winter 2024 in Egypt

Egypt tends to experience only two seasons, winter and summer, and winter is a good time to visit as the temperatures start to drop between October and May. Cairo and the Pyramids of Giza are best visited in the milder temperatures in December as are the temples in the village of Abu Simbel. Winter in Egypt is an ideal time to hop on that Nile cruise – with the clement temperatures you will be able to sit up on deck enjoying the warm sunshine without the searing heat of summer.
