Travelers can comfortably explore iconic attractions such as the Pyramids of Giza, admire the legendary Great Sphinx of Giza, or wander through the ancient temples and historical streets of Luxor and Aswan without the intense summer heat.

Spring is also the perfect season for unforgettable Nile cruises and cultural experiences. Visitors can discover the magnificent Abu Simbel Temples, explore traditional markets, and experience the joyful atmosphere of Sham El-Nessim, one of Egypt’s oldest celebrations. During this festival, locals gather along the Nile River, parks, and gardens while traditional feluccas sail peacefully across the water.

Egypt in Summer: Coastal Escapes, Red Sea Adventures & Relaxing Getaways

Summer in Egypt reveals a completely different side of the country, where stunning coastlines, crystal-clear waters, and luxury beach resorts create the perfect escape from the heat. While famous historical cities such as Luxor and Aswan experience higher summer temperatures, Egypt’s Mediterranean and Red Sea destinations offer refreshing sea breezes, relaxing beaches, and unforgettable summer experiences.

Along the Mediterranean coast, travelers can enjoy cooler weather and beautiful seaside scenery in Alexandria and Sidi Abdel Rahman, where temperatures are often much more comfortable during the summer months. Visitors can relax on sandy beaches, enjoy luxury resorts, and experience Egypt’s vibrant coastal atmosphere.

The Red Sea region becomes one of the top summer destinations in Egypt, especially in Hurghada, El Gouna, and Sharm El Sheikh. These world-famous resort towns offer snorkeling, scuba diving, yacht trips, island excursions, and luxury beachfront hotels, making them ideal for couples, families, and adventure travelers alike.

For travelers seeking cooler mountain weather and outdoor adventures, the Sinai Peninsula offers breathtaking natural beauty. Destinations such as Saint Catherine's Monastery and Mount Sinai provide refreshing mountain escapes, scenic hiking trails, and unforgettable sunrise experiences. Meanwhile, Dahab is famous for its laid-back atmosphere, diving spots, and the crystal-clear waters of the Gulf of Aqaba.

Smart summer travelers in Egypt often combine culture and relaxation by visiting major attractions early in the day, exploring museums such as the Grand Egyptian Museum in the morning, relaxing by the sea in the afternoon, and enjoying peaceful evening activities like a traditional felucca ride on the Nile River.

With fewer crowds, excellent travel deals, and beautiful coastal destinations, summer is one of the best times to discover Egypt’s beaches, resorts, diving spots, and hidden natural beauty.

Autumn in Egypt: The Perfect Season for Culture, Desert Adventures & Relaxation

Autumn is one of the best times to visit Egypt, offering the perfect balance between comfortable weather, breathtaking landscapes, and unforgettable travel experiences. From September to November, temperatures across Egypt range between 25°C and 30°C, creating ideal conditions for sightseeing, desert adventures, Nile cruises, and beach holidays without the intense summer heat.

During autumn, Egypt’s deserts become far more inviting, making it the perfect season for exploring the Sahara Desert, enjoying desert safari tours, and spending magical nights under clear star-filled skies. Travelers can experience authentic Bedouin culture, overnight desert camping, and scenic landscapes that are difficult to enjoy during hotter months.

The season also marks Egypt’s harvest period, when date palms are full of fruit, sugarcane fields stretch across the Nile Valley, and citrus farms add vibrant colors to the countryside. The soft golden autumn light makes ancient landmarks even more spectacular, creating ideal conditions for photography at world-famous attractions such as the Pyramids of Giza, the Karnak Temple Complex, and the temples of Luxor and Aswan.

Autumn in Egypt also offers a more relaxed and authentic travel experience compared to the busy winter season. With fewer tourist crowds, visitors can enjoy easier hotel bookings, quieter historical sites, and more personal interactions with local communities. Egyptians celebrate the harvest season with traditional foods, local festivals, and a welcoming atmosphere that adds a special cultural charm to every journey.

Meanwhile, Egypt’s coastal destinations remain warm enough for swimming and water activities. Travelers can still enjoy the beautiful beaches and crystal-clear waters of Hurghada, Sharm El Sheikh, and other Red Sea resorts while combining relaxation with cultural exploration along the Nile Valley.

With pleasant weather, fewer crowds, stunning landscapes, and unforgettable cultural experiences, autumn is considered by many travelers to be the ideal season to discover Egypt.

Egypt in Winter: Warm Sunshine, Peaceful Adventures & Timeless History

Winter in Egypt offers the perfect escape for travelers looking to enjoy warm sunshine, ancient wonders, and relaxing experiences while much of Europe experiences cold weather. From December through February, Egypt enjoys mild temperatures ranging between 18°C and 25°C, making it one of the best winter destinations for sightseeing, Nile cruises, beach holidays, and cultural adventures.

During winter, visitors can comfortably explore iconic attractions such as the Pyramids of Giza, admire the legendary Great Sphinx of Giza, and discover the breathtaking temples and monuments of Luxor and Aswan without the extreme summer heat. The season’s clear skies and golden sunlight create ideal conditions for photography and outdoor exploration.

Winter is also one of the best times to enjoy a luxury Nile cruise, where travelers can relax onboard while sailing through the heart of ancient Egypt. Warm daytime weather and cooler evenings create the perfect atmosphere for discovering temples, traditional villages, and scenic Nile landscapes in comfort.

One of Egypt’s hidden winter advantages is the peaceful atmosphere at many historical sites. Travelers can often enjoy fewer crowds, better hotel availability, and excellent travel offers compared to peak holiday periods, creating a more authentic and relaxing experience across the country.

Egypt’s Red Sea destinations remain pleasantly warm during winter, especially in Hurghada and Sharm El Sheikh, where temperatures typically stay between 20°C and 24°C. Visitors can enjoy snorkeling, scuba diving, beach walks, yacht trips, and luxury resort stays along the crystal-clear waters of the Red Sea.

Winter also transforms Egypt’s desert regions into ideal adventure destinations. The cooler temperatures make desert safaris, Bedouin experiences, and outdoor excursions across the Sahara and the Sinai Peninsula far more enjoyable and comfortable.

With warm sunshine, fewer crowds, incredible historical sites, and excellent value for travelers, winter is one of the most rewarding seasons to experience Egypt’s unique beauty and ancient heritage.

Book your unforgettable winter escape with Sun Tours Egypt and discover why Egypt is one of the world’s top winter travel destinations.


The SS Thistlegorm Wreck

3-hour sail from Sharm El Sheikh, near Ras Mohammed National Park

Dating back to World War II, this is one of the most important shipwrecks in the Red Sea and has become one of the world's most important diving sites.

During World War II, in 1941, Germany and Italy controlled the Mediterranean Sea. To extend their reach into North Africa, British ships had to round the Cape of Good Hope and reach the Red Sea. On a moonlit night, the SS Thistlegorm was almost within range of the Allied forces when four German destroyers suddenly bombed the stern. The resulting explosion destroyed the ship and sank it to a watery grave ninety feet deep.

 The wreck of the Testelgorm was discovered in 1950 by explorer Jacques-Yves Cousteau. A documentary film about the wreck was produced and broadcast on television. In 1991, diving trips to the site began after diving tourism gained popularity in Egypt.

Divers need two or three dives to fully explore the ship. A single dive is insufficient because the ship is large, with numerous facilities and military equipment that remained in place.

Dives will see two large locomotives, two tanks, trucks for transporting soldiers and supplies, as well as four-wheel drive vehicles, motorcycles, a large collection of boots, a collection of rifles and anti-aircraft guns, and spare parts for aircraft and military vehicles. Egyptian authorities have removed some of these items and placed them in state museums, but this has not diminished the beauty of the wreck; it remains remarkably well-preserved.

 While diving, you'll feel like you're stepping into history, traveling through time as if you recognize the faces that were on that ship. You'll be amazed to learn about ancient warfare tactics and enjoy it more than someone reading a story, novel, or watching a film about World War II.

The currents are generally light, and visibility is good, though it can sometimes be less clear. The marine life is diverse, and you'll see many different types of fish and other sea creatures. The depths range from 23 to 40 meters.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is it safe to vacation in Egypt, why are there so many police around?

    Egypt is a Muslim country and the concept of security is special here. But what is it, you ask? If you enter the above question in a search engine, what kind of nonsense can you read, and about rude locals, and about unfriendly police officers, and about all sorts of details that do not quite correspond to reality. Of course, in tourist cities, the risk of falling for the tricks of merchants and taxi drivers and being deceived is much higher, but tell me, in which tourist city in Europe, for example, is it different? A tourist is a tourist everywhere, so safety rules must be followed. In the case of Egypt, in order to protect yourself from unnecessary financial costs, have a golden rule, always agree in advance on the cost of goods or services, do not make promises like “we will come to you tomorrow and buy your goods”, otherwise do not get rid of the merchant if, for example, he is based in your hotel. Outside the hotel, the beach and the pool, forget about the naked torso (men) or revealing outfits where the body parts are exposed (women), so you have less complaints and interest from the locals. Girls, there is a special message for you, you should not stare into the eyes, touch or smile insistently at male Egyptians, they may take as special signs of attention to your person and it will be difficult to explain in words that your actions are a simple act of politeness. It’s also not worth taking photos with locals on request, in order to protect yourself from uncomfortable situations. About personal security. Remember, the Egyptians are a hot-tempered people, but they are very hospitable and kind. No one will ever physically harm you. In response to your respectful attitude towards the owners of the land of the Pharaohs, you will receive only a positive experience.  Numerous police and military posts are also a guarantee of security for tourists and visitors to the city. This is especially noticeable in Sharm El Sheikh, because the city is an international conference location for the whole world. Respected people often come here for various events, and the President of Egypt personally visits the city very often.  As you can see, security in Egypt is at a high level, tourists are treated with special care, so come and enjoy the Ancient culture of the pharaohs and the gifts of the Red Sea.

  • What time of the year is the best time to fly to Egypt?

    Egypt welcomes tourists from all over the world all year round. If you choose a beach holiday, you should know that the water temperature in the Red Sea never drops below 20 degrees in winter, and in summer the maximum is 28-29 degrees. Next, it is important to choose the right area, bay and hotel if your trip is in winter.


    The most comfortable time is considered to be from April to June and from September to November.

  • How do I book a tour?

    Order online in a few minutes. Just leave a request here on the website or write to us in any messenger or call the hotline, specify all the information (desired tour, hotel name, number of people, etc.).After that, the manager will confirm the booking, and at the appointed time, wait for the transfer at a pre-arranged location near the hotel. In case of booking any standard group land tours in Egypt, payment will be made upon arrival at the time of departure. In case of booking excursions that require booking a personal transfer, an individual guide, travel outside Egypt or an air flight, the manager will appoint a way to transfer the advance.

  • How do I pay for the tour?

    When you go on a tour by booking online without prepayment, you can pay for the tour in cash at the time of check-out. Usually, the payment is accepted by the warrior or the guide according to your room number (this is your personal password).


    By transfer (PayPal). It is also necessary to warn about this service in advance, since the online payment acceptance department does not function at the places of excursions, and for example, in the desert or on a sea excursion, it will not be possible to pay online due to the lack of Internet.

  • Are you picking us up from the hotel for a guided tour and taking us back to the hotel?

    Yes, for all excursions that you book, there is a transfer service from the hotel and back. The cost of group transfer services is already included in the final price of the tour that you see on the website. The exceptions are remote hotels in the suburbs of Hurghada (from El Gouna, Sahl Hasheesh, Makadi, Soma Bay, Safagi).

  • How do I find out that it was a transfer that came for us?

    In fact, you shouldn’t overload your already busy booking lines and chats in the morning with questions like “write when you arrive, we’ll get out”, “have you arrived, don’t get out?”. It is only necessary to wait in advance for the transfer at the place indicated in the booking message at the appointed time. If the transfer is not available within 15 minutes, please contact the manager immediately. The transfer picks up your room number using a special code. Transfers usually look like this: a white Toyota minibus.

  • Why give the room number for booking an excursion?

    The room number is the personal password of the tourist that the transfer takes you to, and the room number is also used to pay for the tour. 


    When you are waiting for a transfer for an excursion, there may be several tourists from your hotel as well as you waiting for a transfer. Tourist transfers are mostly white Toyotas. And in order for the client and the driver to find each other faster, a password is used – the room number. Only after the driver HIMSELF ANNOUNCES your room number, you can get in the car. 


    Sometimes tourists are also late, especially in the morning, so you can call the reception from the barrier and call the guests from the room. 


    It is completely safe to call the room number to the manager from whom you book excursions.

  • Why do I need passport data for some excursions?

    For some sea and historical excursions, it is necessary to issue a special permit, where the personal passport data of each tourist is entered. This way you can make sure once again that each tour is conducted only with the permission of the Egyptian Tourist Police and you are completely safe.

  • Do you have a license to organize excursions?

    Yes, we have permission to organize excursions.


    If you have already read the above questions, then you should already have an understanding that no trip can be carried out without permission from the tourism police. There are many patrol and military posts along the way, which will necessarily, possibly several times, stop the tourist bus and check the availability of documents for the transportation of tourists and for the organization of a particular activity. Transport is especially closely checked when traveling from one city to another, for example, in Cairo, tourist convoys are escorted by an armed convoy, and a place in this convoy is only for official organizers, which includes our company. This means that an unlicensed organizer is not allowed to work with tourists.

  • The guide at the hotel refuses to check in for the return flight, who should I contact?

    In fact, this is one of the hotel guide’s horror stories, and it has nothing to do with your check-in for the return flight. Most likely, this manipulation is just one of the ways to strengthen your bond with the guide more closely. Guides often come up with various frightening stories so that you can order and pay for the goods and services offered by a “reliable” hotel guide in full confidence, only that they do not mention the cost of these services and goods at times higher. You should not be led by the stories of hotel guides that if you write a refusal of the guide’s services, you will not be released from the hotel, and if you are released, the police will arrest you or issue a fine. You are a guest of the country, and you can move freely without any “special” permits, you have the right to choose where to buy goods and from whom to order services.

  • Do I need a visa to Egypt?

    Citizens of the CIS countries, the United States, Great Britain, Europe and Australia must apply for a visa to enter Egypt. However, there is an exception to this rule!All over Egypt, a visa is required except for the Sinai Peninsula (Sharm El Sheikh, Dahab, Taba, Nuweiba, St. Catherine – you can do without a visa for up to 15 days in these cities, it is enough to stamp Sinay Only on arrival). If you plan to stay for more than 15 days or plan trips to other regions of the Sinai Peninsula or Egypt, you will need to obtain a visa. Tourists who fly to Egypt on vacation for up to 30 days will need an ordinary tourist visa – worth $ 25. You can apply upon arrival, online or at the Consulate or Embassy of the Republic of Armenia. The easiest way to buy a visa at the airport upon arrival, there is a bank office in the terminal building where you can buy a visa for cash dollars (preferably without change) (it looks like a stamp sticker). After that, go to passport control and make sure that the officer inserts and stamps (activates) your visa. You can also apply for a visa online, the details are on the official website. https://egypt-e-visa.com/

  • What is strictly forbidden in Egypt?

    Local laws reflect the fact that Egypt is a predominantly Islamic country, with only 10% Christians.


    Tourists are always treated with respect, but the law is the same for everyone!



    It is recommended to respect local traditions, customs, laws and religions. This is especially important during the holy month of Ramadan. In the resort areas, everything is much simpler. They dress modestly, especially in rural areas, in mosques and bazaars, in areas where the local population predominates.



    Public displays of affection are frowned upon. What may be acceptable in tourist resort areas may not be in other areas, do not forget about this when visiting Cairo, Luxor and other cities where there are not so many tourists.



    You must always have a valid photo identification card with you. We recommend making several copies for your convenience.



    Drinking alcohol on the street and in any place other than a licensed restaurant or bar is not allowed and may result in arrest. Usually there are always exceptions to the rules, tourists with invigorating drinks are often found on the street, this is their responsibility.



    Possession, use, or trafficking of drugs is a serious crime and can lead to long prison terms even in small quantities.



    Posting sharply negative opinions about Egypt or political comments, including about the president or the security forces, can cause problems with the authorities.



    Photographing military, police, and strategic installations or near them is strictly prohibited. Do not photograph officials and local residents (especially women) without their consent.Drones and “drones” for photographing are prohibited.



    LGBT, sexual activity between same-sex partners is not prohibited by law, but there is another regulation that regulates actions described as “debauchery” – this can be used as a comprehensive description. 66 people were arrested in 2017 for promoting the rainbow flag.


    Do not use tap water.

  • Why can't you swim after sunset?

    You can’t swim in the sea at night because of the predators, which are especially active after sunset. There is also a risk of getting hurt by corals or stepping on a sea urchin or a rock fish. 


    It is forbidden to swim in the pools closer to sunset, as workers clean the reservoirs and launch special chemicals that can harm human health.
