The best time to visit Egypt is from October to April, when the weather is mild and pleasant. The peak season is from December to February, when the prices are higher and the attractions are more crowded. The summer months from May to September are very hot and dry, especially in the south, but they offer lower prices and fewer tourists.
Most visitors need a visa to enter Egypt, which can be obtained online through the e-Visa portal, or on arrival at the airport. The visa fee is $25 USD and the visa is valid for 30 days. Some nationalities are exempt from the visa requirement, such as citizens of Bahrain, Hong Kong, Kuwait, Lebanon, Macao, Oman, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.

Egypt is generally a safe and friendly country, but travelers should exercise common sense and caution, especially in crowded areas and at night.
