Unique “Super Cairo” Tour – An unforgettable experience! - This Super Cairo tour from Hurghada to Cairo was truly unique and clearly stands out from other offers! If you are looking for a comfortable, stress-free and exclusive experience, this tour should definitely not be missed. Smooth driving without traffic chaos The special thing about this tour is that it only takes place on Fridays, which is the weekend in Egypt. As a result, there were no annoying traffic jams and no traffic chaos, as is otherwise known from Cairo. The whole ride was relaxed and well organized. Another highlight: No annoying souvenir shop stops – finally a tour where you can focus on the sights without being bothered by vendors! Old Cairo – A fascinating start Our first stop was Old Cairo, where we immersed ourselves in the rich history of the city. We visited: The Hanging Church, an impressive Coptic church with centuries of history. The Panorama religious complex, a unique place where different religions meet. The Amr Ibn Al As Mosque, the oldest mosque in Africa – a spiritual and historical place. The Cairo Citadel, a massive fortress structure with breathtaking views over the city. Egyptian Museum – A Treasure House of History Then we visited the famous Egyptian Museum in Cairo, which houses over 150,000 artifacts, including the stunning treasures of King Tutankhamun. Our guide explained the highlights in a very interesting way, so you really felt like you were immersed in the past. Cruise on the Nile – Included & Free! A special extra of this tour was the free Faluca boat trip on the Nile! In other programs, you have to pay 10 euros extra for it, it was already included here. The ride on the legendary Nile was a beautiful experience and provided a little rest in the middle of the exciting day. Lunch with Bl.

Amazing experience! - So we absolutely loved this trip. Be prepared for a very long day but totally worth it. I expected there to be more people but only 4 including us so it made it more comfortable. Our drivers Hassan and Mustafa explained everything at the start and were very friendly and funny! Our tour guide Mina (sorry if i am spelling it wrong) was extremely knowledgeable and told us many fun facts that we would otherwise not know. He also knew the shortcuts to get through long queues which was amazing. He really cared to get us best service possible and honestly, could not have had a better guide! Drive itself was long and i would say i was definitely dressed wrong, depending on the season you are going, definitely take some travel warmer clothes or a blanket as you travel through the night. You can leave those in a van as it is the same van driving you around! (This was in January, may be different in different warmer months) Had plenty of stops for toilet but it is all paid, so take some small change - 1 dollar, euro or 20s in egyptian pounds, as well as tissues! Genuinely once in a lifetime experience and i am so glad i did this! Thank you!

Hurghada to pyramiden - This tour is truly one of the best experiences you can have in Egypt. We were quickly picked up from our hotel in Hurghada and taken to Cairo in a comfortable, air-conditioned minivan. Our drivers, Hassan and Ebenor, were fantastic, making sure we had a safe and speedy trip. The drive takes about six hours, so if you're ready for a long day, it's definitely worth it. Our guide, Yasser, was outstanding and had a wealth of knowledge. He took us to all the important sites and explained the history in a way that was easy to understand. The boat ride on the Nile was lovely and relaxing, and we enjoyed a tasty lunch. Just a heads up, the heat can be pretty intense, especially at the Pyramids where there's not much shade. Overall, this experience is incredibly enjoyable, as long as you're prepared for a full day. Thank you for an unforgettable day! I can't wait for our next adventure.

Fantastic day trip from Hurghada to Cairo - I had the pleasure of taking part in a one-day tour from Hurghada to Cairo, and it was just incredible! The trip was superbly organized and offered a perfect mix of culture, history and comfort. Early in the morning I was picked up by a friendly guide and a comfortable, air-conditioned bus. The drive to Cairo went smoothly, and during the trip there was interesting information about Egypt's history and sights. Arriving in Cairo, the tour began with a visit to the breathtaking pyramids of Giza that completely overwhelmed me. The guide explained in detail the history of the pyramids and the sphinx. It was an unforgettable experience to stand so close to these impressive monuments. Then we visited the Egyptian Museum, which houses a huge collection of ancient treasures, including the famous artifacts from the Tomb of Tutankhamun. It was fascinating to see all these historical treasures. The lunch stop at a local restaurant was also excellent, with delicious Egyptian food that gave me an insight into local cuisine. The transport back to Hurghada was just as comfortable as the journey, and I could review the day relaxed. I can recommend this tour to anyone who is in Hurghada and wants to experience Cairo in a short time. The service was excellent, the guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, and the sights were just unforgettable. 5 stars!

From start to finish, the journey was incredibly well-organized and utterly captivating. - The day began with a smooth transfer from Hurghada to Cairo, allowing us ample time to explore this mesmerizing city. Our Egyptologist tour guide was exceptional. Their deep knowledge and passion for Egyptian history truly brought each location to life. We started with a visit to Old Cairo, wandering through its ancient streets and absorbing the unique atmosphere. Our guide enriched the experience by sharing fascinating stories and historical insights. Next, we headed to the Egyptian Museum, where the extraordinary collection left us in awe. Our guide's expertise made the exhibits more meaningful, particularly the Tutankhamun treasures, which were a highlight. The intricate details and history of these artifacts were shared with infectious enthusiasm. After the museum, we had a delightful lunch, allowing us to sample traditional Egyptian cuisine. The flavors were delightful, providing a perfect midday refreshment. The adventure then took us to the Giza Plateau, where the pyramids stood majestically against the skyline. The Great Pyramid's grandeur was a sight to behold, and the Sphinx, enigmatic and iconic, was unforgettable. Our guide explained the architectural wonders and the mysteries surrounding these ancient structures, making the experience unforgettable. To top off the day, we enjoyed a serene boat trip on the River Nile. The gentle breeze and the picturesque views of the city from the water created a perfect ending to our trip. The entire experience was seamless, engaging, and utterly rewarding. This day trip from Hurghada to Cairo was a masterpiece of historical exploration and cultural immersion. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking an enriching and memorable Egyptian adventure!

Excellent experience, value for money - This trip is long and tiring but what a trip, the value for money is excellent, we did so much, things your eyes can’t believe, our drivers were brilliant, plenty of toilet breaks but take some $1 bills cause you pay for the toilet paper, they got us there on time to everything, 2 driver that work so well together with sharing the driving when the other is tired. Our guide was knowledgeable and so lovely he told us who to trust and who not to, he got us a great deal on souvenirs, spoke great English and looked after us very well, top man. The Nile boat ride was lovely, our own private boat and lovely guys looking after us on that. If I could have a moan about anything it was the perfume shop, I feel he wasn’t happy that I wasn’t interested in what he was selling and I did end up walking out I do think this should be cut out and more time being spent in the museum or at dinner. The museum was unbelievable and our guide showed us all the best artefacts. Dinner was lovely it was across from the pyramids but you need to be on the second floor to see them while eating but the dinner was lovely even though it wasn’t quite a pyramid view. Drinks are not included in the meal but there cheap enough to buy. Our driver shared the driving and got us back pretty sharpish which we was happy tired by then, swapping when tired and only stopped once as we just wanted to get back, very good driving and always felt safe. All in all it was an experience of a life time and well worth the long day. Worth every penny for everything we seen and did 5 star service absolutely loved it thank you so much to the drivers and the guide they deserve the credit as they were excellent.

Do it!! - Small group turned out to be a large group , several excursions in 1 bus and therefore also differ among themselves , we booked incl drink on the way but we are the only one in the bus together with boat trip payment , asked and received drinks twice , fine English-speaking guidance, very hasty day so but definitely worth it , many beautiful things seen with good explanations - definitely worth it !!

Tour doesn't keep what it promises. Booking office Viator cheeky and opaque. It's too bad. - Basically, it is a pity that a tour is offered here - with Alt-Cairo - before which nobody knows anything locally. For both very nice guides 'Alt-Cairo - despite Friday and thus 'free' was not known in the program. The booking office took the ‘error’ on its head. However, they were not willing to refund any of the booking price and only offered a ‘submarine tour’ as compensation, although we left a day later. I chose this tour especially because Alt-Cairo was there. At GetYourGuide and FTS Travel we have had much better experiences. Here we had booked a trip to Luxor. That was absolutely great - especially the logistics with WhatsApp and the general info.
