Best time to visit Port Said

The weather in Port Said is influenced by the desert, so it can get quite hot and dry in the city. The best time to visit would have to be between December and February, as this is when it is coolest. Unfortunately, it is also peak tourist season.

Once known as the Egyptian city to indulge in some guilty pleasures, the city of Port Said has had a change of heart and is now a bustling seaport for travellers passing through the Suez Canal.

The sea-facing boulevard offers astounding views of the canal and offers a close look at the vast amount of traffic that this port sees.

A walk around the city will land you at numerous markets, but for an authentic experience, you should head over to the Souk of Port Said. Here you will be invited to partake in the age-old tradition of bartering to secure your goods. Start too low and you might insult the vendor, start too high and he’ll render you hopeless at the game! Port Said shares the canal with its sister-city, Port Fuad. Visitors can hop on a free ferry across and enjoy beautiful architecture on the other side, and take a tour of The Grand Mosque of Port Fuad.

The crime rate in Egypt in general over the last few years has been quite low. Port Said is a busy metropolis, so when travelling, it is important to be aware of your surroundings at all times. The city is quite safe, but do make sure to not walk alone after dark, and to be aware of beggars in the downtown area.

It is always a good idea to get your regular vaccines up to date before you travel overseas. For your trip to Egypt, it is recommended that you get a shot for typhoid and hepatitis A.
