High Season: September through February
Low Season: May through August
Our Favorite: WAny time during high season is great. Since this is a place that you book guides and tours, your trip will be great regardless. Low season is low due to the high temperatures which makes it too hot to enjoy all that Egypt has to offer.

LUXOR, EGYPT

HURGHADA, EGYPT

- Relaxing beach time at Mahmya beach on Giftun island
