How hot is Luxor in summer and is it manageable for travelers (with kids)?

Based on 1 discussion with 4 participants · Last activity: 6 days ago

TL;DR

Summer 2026 in Luxor isn't extremely hot: July temperatures were around 34-38°C (93-100°F), and the heat is manageable if you avoid direct sun and take breaks in air-conditioned spaces around midday. Tours are still being sold, but in summer they're usually scheduled for early morning or evening only, avoiding the midday heat.

What the community said

This year's heat isn't extreme — around 34-38°C (93-100°F) in July. It's manageable if you avoid direct sun and retreat to air-conditioning at least during midday hours.

A traveler asked how the heat is handled with a child in late August, and whether hotels/rooms match what was booked in the tour package (e.g., sea view vs. desert view — more relevant to resort areas than Luxor itself).

Excursions to Luxor are still being sold in summer, but typically only as early morning or evening tours due to the heat — midday city tours aren't offered.

A combined 'Luxor + Dendera' excursion booked through Biblio Globus tour operator was enjoyable and not too tiring — a good option for a summer visit.
