4.5
(12,793 reviews)

So much was packed into one day. Sheriff and Mahmoud are very nice guys. Both Egyptians but our guide was Sheriff while Mahmoud was the driver. Pick up from hotel was prompt, albeit too early (2;00am) but that was due to flight taking off at 4:30am to Cairo. Tour was just as described except for the visa requirement to Cairo from Sharm El Sheikh. That was an extra $30/£25. So you may want to factor this cost when considering whether to go by air or by road. It cost $25 if you obtain the visa just as you arrive at Sharm-El-Sheikh Airport. It’s a lot to cramp into one day but for us, we wanted to stay at Sharm but tick off the pyramids off our list, hence why we added Cairo to the list. If I may suggest, a one-way to Sharm-el Sheikh and a return from auto back to your country should save you the cost of a round trip within Egypt. I hope you enjoy your tour.

We booked the trip from sharm to cairo with the plane.The only negative thjng i can say was that lack of comunication from the guys from the company.meeting point and other little stuf.The tour guide Sherrif )is a kind person and every time you need help woth something he will help no matter what.even give you small amoun of egp ,and not asking them back.Full of information and a lot of patience.The driver (Mahmoid) alsoo a kind person with a big heart.very carefull with all of us.10 stars for them.The trip on the nil(the 45 min).a waste of time and money.The rest of the trip was excelent.

Rodina - our guide is very passionate about history, she tried to give the best knowledge she knows of these sites to us. The trip was pretty chill, she brought myself and another participant to all 3 main locations, we have sufficient time to take in all of them. I'm actually very happy that she tries to protect our best interests and not make us buy anything we don't need, definitely need more guides like her.

Bus trip was OK. In Cairo, my (VIP😂) travel companion/Egyptologist Nadja was really great. It was so interesting and informative! The food was really great and I felt completely at home! The new museum is very modern and interesting, but not finished yet! I was happy

Amazing day, long but worth it! We found out pick up time the evening before, it would be good to find out a little before, that would be the only improvement.
