Pyramids of Giza - A magnificent tour that started in the middle of the night. Arrived in Cairo around 9:30. At the Egyptian Grand Museum we met our guide Ahmed Hassan who showed us the highlights of Egyptian history. Very skilled and competent guide. It was overwhelming to see the pyramids and the sphinx. The guide told about the construction of the pyramids and their significance. We booked on Viator and the trip was run by TMS travel. Impressive that they completed the tour even though there were only two enrolled. Respect.

The Giza complex and grand Cairo museum - The most breath taking experience I’ve had up to date. Yes of course be aware when in Cairo city and the pyramids as busy on weekends, that said loving welcoming people. The Grand Cairo museum was something I couldn’t quite take in, the history and grand majesty of the place has dwarfed anything I’ve seen in my god given life. Thank you and shukran Cairo, until next time. Highly recommend it should be on your bucket list!

Trip to Cairo/Pyramids, starting from Hurghada - Hani and the company FTS was great. We were looked after the best all around. The ride was a bit long, but ran smoothly. Pick up at the hotel and also let out right at the hotel. We also had a meal and are therefore satisfied. So if you want to experience what of the pyramids is right here.

Great experience - The day is memorable because after a very long minibus ride (more than 6 hours) you are rewarded with a wonderful visit to the great Egyptian museum with a very brilliant and expert guide (Nivine). The meal that follows in buffet serves correct and well the visit to the pyramids is grandiose. Passages to shops (perfumes or tea) are traditional and a little superfluous but we understand them. The return trip is a little shorter (5 hours) but tiring anyway.

Well-Organized Tour with an Outstanding Guide - We had an excellent experience on this trip. Our tour guide Ibrahim Fouda did a fantastic job – he was very professional, knowledgeable, and well organized throughout the entire excursion. Everything was clearly explained, and we felt well taken care of at all times. We were very satisfied with the overall organization and service provided by FTS Travels. Based on this positive experience, we will definitely book with FTS again in the future and can highly recommend them.

Great (and long) trip - The trip itself was very nice, and I am giving one star less only because of the transportation. The tour started at 1:40 a.m. After about 20 minutes, we stopped to form a convoy with vehicles from multiple travel agencies (around 25 buses, vans, and cars). This process took approximately 1.5 hours, and we finally departed at 3:30 a.m. One of the guides explained that vehicles are required to travel in a convoy for security reasons and that departure depends on police approval. Unfortunately, the van was quite uncomfortable. We arrived at the Grand Museum at 9:15 a.m. Aside from the transportation issues, the tour itself was excellent, and we really liked the tour guide. The return journey was smooth, and we arrived back at the hotel at 10:30 p.m. I noticed that some travelers complain about high prices at the restaurants during the stops. While prices may be slightly higher, there are very few places to stop during the 5–6 hour drive, and it seems that convoys are only allowed to stop at designated locations.

Testing - We were supposed to leave at 1:30am. We were called at 12:50! Lots of stops on the road. The pyramids are always beautiful! The new great museum of extraordinary Cairo! We had not asked for stop perfumes and oils, papyrus and even less at the end of the day the organization without our agreement of a felucca ride!!! A motorboat with thunderous music and 30€ of rapine! Tourist trap! Our guide was friendly and connoisseur. Our drivers very kind and helpful. In the end, sleepless night. No meals out of lunch in a crowded, noisy and full of smells of kitchens to cut your appetite! Back at midnight after hours in an icy van... we both came home sick. Cough up the stops and the unplanned Nile ride added 3 hours to the trip! We are delighted to have seen the pyramids again and very pleased to have discovered the extraordinary museum!
