Luxor in March

March in Luxor: average highs of 29°C, lows of 15°C and 12 hours of sunshine a day. A starting point for planning around the historical weather.

March in Luxor, Egypt, brings average daily highs of 29°C and overnight lows of 15°C in the 2016–2025 historical record. Light clothing is a useful starting point, with room in the plan to pause indoors. Decide how much walking to fit into each day using the local forecast, rather than treating the monthly average as a limit.

In the record, at least 1 mm of rain or snow falls on <1 of 31 days on average, a daily chance of <1%. Rain has been relatively infrequent in this record, which leaves more scope for an outdoor plan. Still keep an alternative for a wet day: a low monthly average cannot tell you when the rain will arrive.

The calculated day length, sunrise to sunset, averages about 12 hours. Sunshine averages 12 hours a day. Use the daylight window to plan the length of excursions, and check local sunrise and sunset times for the dates of your stay. Sunshine is a separate measure, and those hours need not arrive in one uninterrupted stretch.

For a culture-focused visit, group the places you want to see into manageable areas, with time between stops. Check each venue's opening dates before fixing the order.

April has an average daily high of 34°C, 5°C higher than March. Its historical rain-day chance is 1%, compared with <1% this month. If your dates are flexible, compare those trade-offs with the kind of days you want. Neither set of averages predicts the conditions of one particular holiday.
