Egypt is as fascinating for history lovers as for those chasing sun year-round. Over 5,000 years of civilisations — Pharaonic, Greek, Roman, Christian, and Islamic — have each left their mark, from the pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx to the colossal statues of Memnon in Thebes and the temples of Abu Simbel.

Cairo, the city of a thousand minarets, blends ancient and contemporary heritage in equal measure. Sail the Nile between Luxor and Aswan, where the temples of Karnak and the tombs of the pharaohs offer some of the most striking glimpses into the ancient world — especially at sunset.

For divers, Marsa Alam and the deep south of the Red Sea reveal untouched wildlife, sandy beaches, and untamed mangroves, while resorts like Sharm el-Sheikh and Hurghada are a haven for kite and windsurfers.

Egypt spans three climates — Mediterranean, semi-desert, and desert in the south. Alexandria's coast enjoys a cooler sea breeze, while central regions like Cairo run hotter, with the occasional sirocco stirring up desert heat and dust. Whatever the season, expect warmth and sunshine — our Egypt travel guide covers the best time to go in more detail.
