Frequently Asked Questions

Most travelers need a visa for Egypt, which can be obtained online through the Egypt e-Visa portal or on arrival at Cairo Airport. We provide assistance to make the process easy.

The best time to visit is from October to April, when the weather is cooler for sightseeing and perfect for a Nile Cruise between Luxor and Aswan.
