Exceptional!!! - Without a doubt, the best excursion DE our stay! Indeed the places are breathtaking and full of stories, which our adorable guide saloa knows on his fingertips and takes pleasure in telling you! We were a little apprehensive about the journey, quite long DE with three young EN, but we were lucky enough to be accompanied by hakim and Ali, they are so kind and kind that I don’t even have the words to thank them enough! VIP escort! We were alone with our three children in the vehicle. The comfort DE this one is excellent EN t, air conditioning, reclining seats, phone charging, cooler ... and the most important thing is that in addition to being very caring with us they are excellent drivers! Essential in Egypt 😂! We had a great day with family! Thank you 3 😍

Amazing day with pyramids - The Trip is long , for us it was 22h to get back to hotel, but it is so Worth it. Despite small tiredness at the end you feel great and well take care of from start in nice A/c minibus drove by 2 friendly drivers ( driving in Cairo requires great skills which they both for sure have). Through the Cairo guidance by Hannah (our tour guide for a day in our case) who was very knowledgeable about Egypt history describing nicely artefacts in museum and pyramids. She was also great advisor where to buy and where not the items indicating also rough price, when asked.( in Egypt there no set prices). The Pyramids are stunning and energy emanating from them is absolutely beautiful, despite big heat we felt great. Extra 10eur fee for camel ride was also worth it , to see panorama of pyramids alignment from the hill. Overall definitely very well organised trip , which can be a bit fast paced in museum but there is a lot to cover during the day. You feel safe and well informed during the visit. We have also met and share enjoyment of the trip with lovely people who also booked the trip , it was 8 of us in total in 13 person minivan. Thank you for vey nice experience , which we definitely recommend.

Seamless Travel & Comfortable Journey - We started early in the morning, and the trip was well-organized. The transfer was smooth, with a comfortable, air-conditioned bus that made the long journey enjoyable. The guide provided fascinating insights about Egypt’s history along the way, making the ride feel much shorter than expected.

Recommended - I had an unforgettable experience on the 1-day tour from Hurghada to Cairo, everything was impeccably organized. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, providing fascinating insights into the history of Egypt, especially when we visited the Great Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx. The drive was smooth and comfortable, and we were able to relax and enjoy the views along the way. We also had enough time to explore the Egyptian Museum, which was a highlight, showcasing the ancient treasures, including the incredible King Tutankhamun exhibit. Lunch was delicious, and the restaurant was perfect for a break before continuing the tour. The whole day was packed with excitement and learning, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to see Cairo’s top attractions in a day!

Small group Journey to Cairo - Our adventure to Cairo from Hurghada was an absolute dream! The day started early with a comfortable ride with a small group only we was 6 persons, and as we watched the sun rise over the desert, excitement built for what was to come. Our guide, a passionate Egyptologist, filled the journey with fascinating stories about ancient Egypt, making the long drive fly by. As soon as we arrived in Cairo, we headed straight to the Giza Pyramids—and nothing could have prepared us for the sight of these ancient wonders. Standing before the towering pyramids, we were in complete awe. We even had the chance to go inside one of the smaller pyramids, which was an unforgettable experience! The Great Sphinx was just as impressive, its enigmatic gaze watching over the desert as it has for thousands of years. Next, we visited the Egyptian Museum, where we stood face-to-face with treasures from King Tutankhamun’s tomb. Seeing his famous golden mask in person was a surreal moment! Our guide walked us through the most significant artifacts, making history come alive with his storytelling. For lunch, we enjoyed a delicious Egyptian meal by the Nile River, with a stunning view that made everything feel even more special. Afterward, we had time to explore Khan El Khalili Bazaar, where we wandered through vibrant alleyways filled with spices, jewelry, and souvenirs. It was the perfect way to soak in the lively spirit of Cairo. The entire tour was perfectly organized, from pickup to drop-off, with plenty of time to explore each site. If you're in Hurghada, this trip to Cairo is an absolute must! It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we will never forget.

Check conditions, at the end you pay 100 per person at insane inflated entrance ticket charges - The travel description of this journey is close to fraud. Be cautious that you are aware that you only book for €40 transport, travel guide and meal. Even so entrance tickets for pyramids and museum are indicated as included on your travel confirmation, ithey are not. Those are charged to you at an inflated (more than double) price for 60 € and have to be paid mandatory, despite confirmed information you get with your booking information. With this, I am not saying, that the overall price would be insane, but you find definitely better offers at get your guide. Having spoken with Viator , they find this practice very normal. Just to let you know, for me it is close to fraud
