Base for 1 month in Egypt

[TrentLA]

I was wondering which place is better base for a one-month stay in Egypt, Luxor or Aswan? Day trips can be done if necessary, but where are guys friendlier and where is easiest to hang? Thanks for the help

I have been to both places: Aswan is beyond beauty. In a month, you potentially will become part of a community. It has many sights, yet - like Luxor - it is (too) hot in summer. Luxor might be more exciting though in terms of night life, however nothing compared to Cairo, Hurghada or Sharm El Sheikh (also fantastic base for almost everything).

Have you considered Alexandria?

Enjoy!
