Climate information

Wonderfully dry all year round, the months between December and February are most comfortable, with warm days and chilly evenings that can reach as low as 6°C (43°F). Things hot up between May and September to 20°C-36°C (68°F-97°F), but thankfully it's never humid. Between June and August, wear a sunhat, stay in the shade and drink plenty of water. Make the most of warm evenings by the Nile.
