Pick Egypt 🇪🇬 if you're going in…

January, December

Sunrise visits to Karnak & Valley of the Kings dodge both heat and crowds.

Pick Vietnam 🇻🇳 if you're going in…

Don't try the whole country in monsoon swing months (Sep–Oct) — coastal weather is unreliable.

Months where both are equally good: February, March, April, May, November.
