The best time to travel to the Middle East depends on how comfortable you are with heat, as most of the region has warm temperatures all year long.
Summers are particularly hot in Egypt and the United Arab Emirates, with temperatures reaching highs in the 100s F during the day. Drinking plenty of water, limiting your alcohol intake, and using proper sun protection is extremely important in order to prevent the effects of dehydration and heat stroke while on a Middle East trip.
The late fall, winter, and early spring months bring more moderate temperatures across these destinations. The off season is a nice time to take an [Egypt tour](/tours/middle-east-tours/egypt-tours) after the summer crowds have retreated.
Israel is a year-round destination, with warm summers (reaching highs around 90 F during the day) and moderate winters (with daily highs in the 60s F). We recommend joining one of our [Israel tours](/tours/middle-east-tours/israel-tours) in the late fall or winter if you prefer more comfortable temperatures and don't mind the chance of some rain.
