The best time is March to April and October to November, when highs stay around 25-31°C with no rain. Summer, from June to August, is the hottest stretch, with daily highs above 37°C. Winter is mild but brings the most rain days, though only 1-2 per month. Humidity is moderate all year, making the cooler months most pleasant.

Giza, Saqqara, and Memphis bring you to the Pyramids, the Sphinx, and Egypt's early capital, all in one tour.

Add a third day for the Saladin Citadel, Al-Azhar Park, and Al-Azhar Mosque, and a fourth for Cairo Tower or the Hanging Church. If you take a day trip to Alexandria or El Fayoum, add an extra day, bringing the total to 5 or 6.
