When to rent a villa in Lower Egypt

The climate in Lower Egypt is typically hot and dry during the summer months (June to August), with temperatures often reaching as high as 35°C (95°F). If you're looking to escape the heat, consider visiting during the spring (April to May) or autumn (September to October), when temperatures are milder and more pleasant. These shoulder seasons offer perfect conditions for exploring the region's ancient ruins, temples, and museums, without the scorching sun beating down on you.

If you're looking for a beach-focused holiday, winter (December to February) is the best time to visit Lower Egypt, as the coastal temperatures are generally cooler than in the summer months. The Mediterranean Sea is calm during this period, making it ideal for snorkeling and swimming. However, if you're planning to explore the region's many festivals and cultural events, such as the Eid al-Fitr celebrations or the Cairo International Film Festival, plan your trip accordingly, as these events take place during the winter months.

Where to go in Lower Egypt

When it comes to choosing the perfect location for your Lower Egypt villa holiday, you're spoiled for choice. For those looking to experience the region's vibrant nightlife and bustling streets, consider basing yourself in Cairo or Giza. These cities offer a wealth of dining options, from traditional street food to high-end restaurants serving international cuisine. However, if it's relaxation and tranquility you're after, look no further than the charming town of Dahshur or the picturesque village of Saqqara. Here, you can while away the days strolling along quiet streets, exploring ancient ruins, and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere.

For beach lovers, Lower Egypt has a treasure trove of hidden gems waiting to be discovered. The coastal towns of Aboukir and El-Ayait are perfect for those seeking a more laid-back vibe, with their pristine beaches, seafood restaurants, and picturesque fishing villages. Meanwhile, the island of Zawyet el Aryan is a snorkeler's paradise, boasting crystal-clear waters teeming with marine life. Wherever you choose to stay, your Lower Egypt villa will be the perfect base from which to explore this incredible region.
