Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a visa to visit Egypt? add
Most nationalities can obtain an e-Visa online before travel or a visa on arrival at major airports. Our concierge team will confirm the exact requirements for your passport when you book.
What is the best time of year to visit Egypt? add
The cooler months from October to April are the most comfortable for sightseeing, especially in Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan. Summer (June-August) is hotter but ideal for Red Sea beach trips.
