Planning a trip to Egypt? Here you'll find our day-by-day itinerary (Cairo and Giza, Luxor, Aswan, Abu Simbel, Nile cruise, Red Sea), plus the essential practical info to organise your journey.

At a glance

  • Currency — The currency is the Egyptian pound (EGP), heavily devalued in recent years (about 50-55 to 1 euro)
  • Language — The language is Arabic
  • Visa — You need a passport with at least 6 months' validity
  • e-SIM — The mobile network (Vodafone, Orange, Etisalat) is widespread and works well in tourist areas

When to go to Egypt

The climate is hot and dry. Summer (June-September) is scorching, especially in the south (Luxor and Aswan exceed 40-45 degrees): poorly suited to sightseeing. The ideal period is October to April, with warm days and cool evenings. The Red Sea is enjoyable year-round. Bring a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen and something warm for winter desert evenings.

Practical tips

  • Photos, politics and drones — It is strictly forbidden to photograph the military, police and security installations (even with a phone): you risk arrest
  • Areas to avoid — The classic circuit (Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, Nile cruise, Red Sea) is touristically safe and guarded
