Hurghada to Cairo: Pyramids & Museum for First-Time Visitors

We travelled as a family with 2 young children joining another family with 2 young children on the bus. The tour guide was well informed and had some quiz questions for us all when back in the bus. He helped us to get through queues at speed. Lunch was reasonable. The downsides : the drivers sped at 130-140kmph despite speed limits of 100kmh for minibus. The driver was constantly distracted by phone. I raised this with the tour guide Akhmed wahip but this seemed to make zero difference for the return leg. In fact a new “ friend “ joined us who flashed pictures of boats to the driver. The stops

Great value for money and definitely a must do if it's your first time in Egypt. The drivers for the day trip were punctual and efficient when it came to getting us from A to B. They were super helpful in guiding us cross roads, finding clean toilets, etc so very attentive. Congo was our tour guide for the day and he did a fantastic job! On our trip, we started the day with some local coffee before setting off for a boat ride by the nile (if you don't opt in like us, you can stay in the car for the 30mins), then it was the Grand Egyptian Museum. This was stunning but one minor feedback would b

Overall an amazing experience. Things went smoothly. We had our own personal guide who was very knowledgeable and accommodating. The museum is totally awe inspiring. I found out so many things about ancient Egypt that I couldn’t have discovered by just going independently. The lunch and pyramid excursion were also excellent. I wouldn’t rate the papyrus experience. The pieces were very over priced and the staff pleasant but very pushy. Obviously it’s a long way on the bus so although water is provided take something for breakfast

Everything went great except for the drive there. It is far away, and you have to leave at 1:00 AM, at least from my hotel. It is a long drive, about 5 hours. The drivers were very friendly, especially the local tour guide deserves more than 10 points. He was great; he knows the history, and you can understand him. Only that we were at the new museum and not at the old museum as offered and booked. This change was made on-site with an additional fee. Anyone who wants to know the history of the country should definitely book this and bring plenty of money.

A bit of a long journey but worth a visit. You're looking at the pyramid site. We were fortunate to have a Francophone guide who takes pleasure in explaining the history of her country. After the pyramids we visit an essential oil factory and then a papyrus factory. No obligation to purchase which is appreciable. Lunch in a buffet restaurant with payment in addition to drinks. For the afternoon visit the great Egyptian museum.

We visited with an excellent guide everything that was written in the program: pyramids, sphinx and Egyptian museum
