Seasonal guide to help you plan the perfect trip to in Cairo
Summer
October–April (milder weather; busiest and pricier)
June–August (hotter, lower base hotel rates outside domestic holiday spikes)
March–May: temperatures generally range from the high teens to high 20s °C (mid-60s to upper-70s °F). Clear skies and blooming parks make it pleasant for outdoor visits to the Pyramids, Citadel, and Nile corniche.

Major film festival showcasing Arab and international cinema with screenings, panels, and industry events.
Two major Islamic holidays marking the end of Ramadan and the Hajj season, respectively.

Cairo has a hot desert climate: bring sun protection, lightweight breathable clothing, and a hat for daytime. In spring be prepared for occasional dusty khamsin winds; in winter bring a light jacket for cool nights. Always carry bottled water, and if you plan extensive outdoor time, schedule activities for early morning or late afternoon during hot months.
Cairo's hotel prices fluctuate with seasonal weather, domestic holidays, and international events. The mild months (roughly October–April) are the high season because temperatures are comfortable for sightseeing; expect higher rates and earlier sell-outs, especially around major events like the Cairo International Film Festival and the Cairo International Book Fair. Summer (June–August) is generally the value season with lower base rates as heat deters many international tourists, but prices can spike during domestic holiday windows (school holidays, Eid periods) and during large conferences. Ramadan can produce a complex pricing pattern: some hotels raise rates because they offer special Ramadan iftars and packages that attract domestic guests, while others lower rates when international arrivals dip. Book well in advance for festival dates, long weekends, and major religious holidays; for off-peak travel, look for last-minute deals and package offers from international and local chains.
Insider advice to help you make the most of your visit
Multiple options: Cairo Metro for fast inner-city travel, ride-hailing apps (Uber, Careem) and taxis for door-to-door trips, and Nile ferries/feluccas for river experiences.
Hire a licensed Egyptologist or experienced guide for the Giza Plateau and Old Cairo to skip lines, get historical context, and access the best photo vantage points. For fewer crowds and magical light, visit the pyramids at sunrise or late afternoon; arrive early to beat both the heat and the peak tour groups.
