Golden hour—the period just after sunrise and before sunset—offers the best light for stunning photos in Egypt. This usually occurs about an hour after sunrise (around 6:30–7:30 am) and an hour before sunset (about 5:00–6:00 pm, seasonally adjusted). Plan visits to the pyramids, temples, and the Nile at these times for warm, soft light and dramatic scenes. Our team can recommend specific sites and the perfect timing for memorable golden hour shots.
