Day Tour to Cairo from Hurghada By Bus

You think you have cheap trip, but it get more expensive as you are literally being used as a cow being milked. You pay and pay and pay. I wonder if this big company we give the money to, give the driver or the workers any money. Because it doesn’t seem like it

Pick up was directly at our front door however one tour guide came to our hotel in a taxi to pick us up to take us to the bus. The process to pick up and drop off customers was time consuming and made us feel skeptical of the overall experience but once we made it to the tour bus the remainder of the trip was exactly what we paid for. Our guide was very informative and answered any questions we had. He also made the effort to get to know each of us in his group. The locations we visited were awesome. We felt very safe riding around in Cairo. All shops and souvenir staff we were introduced to were friendly and not overwhelming. My only suggestion would be to spend less time at Sultans and maybe add the additional time at the Egyptian museum. Sultans was amazing we bought a few items but we did not think we needed so much time there to discuss sample and purchase products.

They do it nice. We love it this places. Guid Amr Hussein explain verry well. Camel Reid is super. Pyramife und Museum, Nile are super.

The Tour was really great we got told pick up time is 1:35 but they came a lil bit later cause they also had to pick up other people.the bus was comfortable with ac and Toilet in it.you share the bus with people who ordered the Tour in different languages and the one with the most of the same language is basically the leader of the guides.we for example booked the Tour in english and 95% of the rest in polish so we had our own Private tourguide just for us 2 in english which was amazing Service and our guide was also amazing.the road from hurghada to cairo took around 5 1/2 hours with 1 stop for around 30min to move your legs and get something to eat or drink,and no people to try to sell you Souvenirs.the first stop was a nile river Tour for around 40min which is optional if you want you can take it and it Cost us 10$ for 2 people.was better than waiting outside the bus for 40min and not doing anything.the next stop was the National Museum of cairo where we spend 1hour in a personal Tour and than 30min where we could explore in on our own.but entrance fee isnt included in this package so you need to pay around 10$ per person for the entrance ticket.the next stop after that was a you could say perfume shop where you can get explained how they make the perfume in the past, its optional and you dont need to do it and can wait outside,was around 15min.after that we went to the Restaurant which was a Buffet with bbq'ed meat,and side dishes you can choose from,the food is included but drinks you need to pay for. After that we finally went to the pyramids,first stop is at the biggest pyramid where you have around 5min to make pics,and here you also need to pay around 10$ per person entrance fee.after that there is a little drive in the bus to the other pyramid where you get around 40min to spend your time how you want.they make you the offer that you can take a camel ride or like a rikshaw with horse to go to a better place to make pics where you see all 9 pyramids,the 3 big ones and 6 smaller ones,but it will cost also 10$ per person,but in our personal experience it was 100% worth it to do that for the view.than after that we went with the bus between the biggest and Middle pyramid where we got again 20min to make pics and walk around.than after that we got to the Sphinx and spend around 20min there too for pics and history lesson.after that we went to the bus again and went to a store where they explain you how papyrus Was made and you could also buy some,took around 25min.and after that the way back started,we sadly got caught in traffic so the road back took longer and there was a stop to stretch your legs and get something to eat again.we arrived back at our hotel at around 23:30,so you can expect the Trip to take at least 22hours but in our opinion its 100% worth it to do this trip to see the last remaining of the 7 World wonders

This tour was the highlight of my trip. Seeing all the artifacts in the museum was unreal. The pyramids were incredible to see. It was impressive to see all the work the ancient Egyptians put in to build these structures and they are still standing strong. The camel ride was not included in the tour but it was worth the extra cost. Our guide went above and beyond with taking our pictures. He made sure we got spectacular shots. Our tour guide, Mohammad, was very knowledgeable. He explained all the historical facts you would expect your guide to explain. This tour is worth it! Yes the bus ride is long but it will all be worth your wild once you see all the beauty Cairo has to offer.

It was fun and worth every penny. Although the journey was long winded the whole experience was fun. The tour guide were good however i would tend to take advantage of your surroundings and just go by yourself

Not very good communication with regards to extra charges. This ended up spoiling our day and luckily, the tour guide admitted her mistakes but was blaming the others. I could not wait to get back to the hotel and relax as my kids were also affected with the drama that unfolded as I continued to put my point across that I was not explained properly about the (hidden) charges incurred during the Nile river trip. Overall, the pick up was on time.

I came to Hurghada to enjoy the red sea then I knew that I could visit the great pyramids from Hurghada,I decided to book online,I found a good offer from via tour,so I booked the trip.the price was good.the transfer man came on time,picked me up from my hotel,we collected some other tourists from the nearby hotels then drove to Cairo.the bus had comfortable seats that I could sleep,we did one stop on the way to Cairo,I had some coffee,then our journey continued to Cairo,we went firstly to the Egyptian museum,there we met our tour guide Mustafa,he speaks very good English,and he told me a lot about ancient and modern Egypt, after visiting the museum we drove to the restaurant. After lunch we went to Giza, there I saw the great pyramids and the sphinx.After that we did shopping near the pyramids,I bought myself papyrus. Then the bus left Giza to Hurghada. It was really a great experience,thank you very much

Trip was ok. The Nile River was an unnecessary trip that they tell you about when you come out of the museum and then charge you 10 euro pp. Also because of unnecessary stops we were rushed to see the inside of a pyramid which is NOT needed because it's a jail cell sized hot box with 30 people trying to fit in there. Another unnecessary stop was the Papyrus establishment and Aromatherapy Oil store (none of these advertised) but they take you there to get badgered by the shop owners. Other than that trip pyramids were worth seeing (bring fruits for the camel drivers cause they badger you for money and food)

Pick up was on time and we had short time to collect another guests from other hotels then we moved to Cairo I was dreaming to visit the pyramids and my tour guide Ahmed was the best I have ever met in Egypt.he was excellent and helped me to know all the details of the pyramids.took many photos which it will be great memories for me.it was definitely great memorable day
