Egypt is amazing. This time of year it won't be "too hot" just "pretty hot!" In August it gets over 40 degrees, that's when I went. Is bearable though as it's dry heat not humid. The landscape is hugely cool - from the top deck of a Nile cruiser, warm air billowing in your face, the narrow strip of green vegetation, sand beyond and blue skies above... Incredible ancient sites - if that's your thing, but even if it isn't you can't fail to be impressed by the sheer scale of Karnak Temple for example (in Luxor) Reasonable deals on good quality gold in the bazaars. Only two tips though - you'll get a lot of hassle from salesmen, it's a cultural thing - they JUST won't leave you alone! The other is don't eat cold meats, or salad if you don't know what it's been washed in. Virtually everyone gets an upset stomach who visits... But it's really really cool - hope you have a great time!

'you'll get a lot of hassle from salesmen, it's a cultural thing - they JUST won't leave you alone!' Yeah I got that in Tunisa, it was alright to begin with but after about an hour of them constantly hassling you, you just feel like saying 'FUCK OFF!!' Anyway, morning folks.
