Unique experience - Beautiful experience. With professional people, Bus trip dedicated to 10 people, with stops. Tour guide on arrival at the cairo, professional!! He explained everything!!! The trip is with 2 drivers, so I found it very confident to find sleep!! Notes: the trip is about 6 hours, bring water and food especially if you have children with you. Although there are as many stops as you want. But do not miss the water for the heat. We were also lucky that it was the first time of the new museum of the Egyptians, show.

A unique experience - I wouldn’t know where to start to describe the experience. It's true, the bus ride is long and tiring, but everything that the guide will make you experience, will be unforgettable. It is really worth doing this experience from!!

Very good...... - Cairo is wonderful, everything worked out well. Clearly, everyone has to be considerate, as several people sit and travel together.

An amazing trip to Cairo - The trip to Cairo was absolutely wonderful! The transfer from the hotel was very punctual — we were clearly notified in advance via WhatsApp about the exact pick-up time (11:50 PM). After that, we were transferred from a minibus to a larger coach, and the long journey began — something I’d definitely recommend preparing for in advance. Shortly after departure, there was a security check where our visas were inspected. We arrived in Cairo early in the morning, where everything was well organized and explained. We were divided into smaller groups based on our preferred guide language. The pyramids and the Nile boat cruise were truly unforgettable! We arrived back at our hotel in Sharm El Sheikh around 1:30 AM.

Tiring but beautiful - beautiful day spent in Cairo. Very nice and prepared guide: the right compromise because at the pyramids he let us take many photos without going into explanations, while in the museum he gave us many details.

Brilliant day ! - We went on the Sharm el sheikh to Cairo trip via the night coach.The organisation of the whole tour was excellent and our guide Khalid was fantastic with so much knowledge and a great personality. We were collected at 11pm taken by coach and our guide got our visas in our passports and we stopped at rest house on way to buy drinks etc Arrived in Cairo and put into a group of 8 and had a small bus and our guide all day .We were at the old Egyptian museum around 9am and it was amazing to see Tutankhamun and learn about Egyptian hieroglyphics and history and see other displays.We then went on a lovely boat down the Nile,back on small bus to a papyrus shop and shown how the papyrus pictures are made,back on bus no waiting at anytime for it which was great. Had a buffet lunch at a restaurant which was nice,on to our bus to the amazing pyramids then onto an oil perfume shop and afterwards back onto the original larger bus around 5pm for our journey back to our hotel arriving at 1am. Everything ran so smoothly,there were no issues at all and we could not have asked for a nicer tour guide !! Highly recommend.

Cairo in 2 days (museum, pyramids, sphinx, sakkara, old Cairo, mosques and more) - Our trip lasted 2 days with overnight stay in a nice hotel overlooking the pyramids... We were with a fantastic guide, (cobra), who always followed us throughout and explained anything regarding the various visits... Everything perfect!!!

Very good experience and good price - Very good experience, spent a bit too long in museum instead of looking at the pyramids and sphinx. The buses were also a bit unorganised.
