All tours on dry land are guided informally by your host.When to go?
The boats don’t sail in June, July or August, when it is too
hot for comfort. Winter is the best time to come (November-March).
You’ll need a jacket for the evenings.
You might want to avoid Ramadan, when some businesses will close
for the whole month. And if you are travelling over holidays
– Eid al-Adha, Ras an-Sana – expect the rest of Egypt
to be competing for your seat. The dates for these holidays change
every year, so check before planning your trip.
