Seasonal guide to help you plan the perfect trip to in Cairo
Winter
December–February (peak comfort and international travel; higher prices and crowds).
June–August (hotter, fewer tourists, lower hotel rates and tour prices).
March–May: Temperatures warm up from mild to hot. March and April can bring khamsin (hot, sandy wind) events. Comfortable early in the season; late spring starts feeling more summer-like.
Islamic month of fasting observed across Egypt. Fasting dates shift each year according to the lunar calendar, affecting opening hours, dining, and public life.
Egyptian spring holiday celebrated the day after Coptic Easter (usually in April), marking the start of spring with outdoor family gatherings.
One of the Middle East and North Africa's major film festivals, typically held in November.
Two major Islamic holidays with dates that shift annually. Expect altered business hours, family gatherings, public celebrations, and travel surges.
Large annual book trade fair usually held in January, drawing publishers, authors, and readers from across the Arab world.
Expect hot, dry climate with mild winters. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing for day; bring a light jacket for winter evenings. Use sun protection (hat, sunscreen), stay hydrated in hotter months, and monitor air quality during khamsin dust events. Plan outdoor visits for early morning or late afternoon in summer; in winter, days are ideal for full-day excursions.
Cairo's hotel and service prices vary strongly with season and major events. Highest rates occur during the cooler months (roughly October–April) when tourist comfort is better and during international events and major holidays (e.g., Christmas, New Year, Cairo International Film Festival). Prices drop in the hottest months (June–August) as fewer visitors tolerate the heat; budget hotels and some mid-range properties often discount rooms substantially. Weekend demand in Cairo can also push prices up because many domestic travelers visit from elsewhere in Egypt. Currency fluctuations and major religious holidays (Ramadan, Eid) can change short-term pricing and availability, especially for restaurants and guided tours.
Insider advice to help you make the most of your visit
Cairo has a mix of metro, buses, taxis, ride-hailing apps, and private drivers. Traffic can be heavy—allow extra time for journeys.
Book popular attractions and museums in advance (and arrive early) to avoid peak crowds. For the Pyramids, schedule either sunrise or late-afternoon visits for softer light and fewer visitors; hire a licensed Egyptologist guide to enrich the experience and avoid aggressive touts.
