Cairo by bus adventure- Pyramids the Sphinx & boat ride on the river Nile
Excellent trip to Cairo by bus, well organised with good communication with the tour operator (via what’s app).
Long journey from / return to Sharm el Sheikh but definitely worth it to see the Pyramids and the Sphinx, and also the boat ride on the river Nile were my highlights. Our guide Saber was very good with great Egyptology knowledge and great enthusiasm.
Thank you team for making this a great experience I will never forget !

Da Sharm al Cairo
Ammetto è una gita lunga, stancante ma alla fine ne vale la pena!
Il tutto è stato reso ancor più memorabile grazie alla nostra guida Saber, che con la sua professionalità e passione ci ha saputo coinvolgere in tutto.

Cairo highlights - Pyramids, Sphinx & River Nile
An excellent tour to Cairo from Sharm el Sheikh. Expect a long bus ride but secure travel via convoy to ensure passenger safety (when needed). Be prepared to be out for a long period -24 hrs for is us approx…but worth it!
Loved the pyramids, boat ride on the River Nile and the guide Saber was really informative with good enthusiasm and Egyptology knowledge - which was awesome.
There were opportunities for toilet/ convenience breaks, and to get food. The meal provided as part of the programme was good too.
Overall an awesome experience that I won’t forget ! Thanks to travel team… it was good that they could keep in touch via what’s app to answer questions (especially about the e-Visa and passport stamp needed for Cairo)….
Awesome !

Egitto quello vero. Peccato la durata del viaggio.
Esperienza molto bella e coinvolgente. Le piramidi e la sfinge sono da visitare assolutamente. Il museo della storia egiziana anche quello molto molto interessante con aneddoti particolari per i più appassionati. Il personale per lo spostamento é stato molto gentile e cordiale. La guida italiana veramente competente ed amichevole. Unica pecca gli innumerevoli controlli durante il tragitto che giustificano le 9 ore di viaggio sia per andata che per ritorno. Senza basterebbero la metá.

Tour durch Kairo mit Be Hami!
Wir haben die Kairo-Tour mit Be Hami gemacht. Es war eine unglaubliche Erfahrung. Be Ahmi ist der beste Reiseführer in ganz Ägypten. Er bringt uns an viele Orte und verhandelt für uns alle Preise wie ägyptische Preise. Wir sind mit ihm allein und er gibt uns bei allen Aktivitäten sehr gute Erklärungen zur Geschichte. Er beantwortet alle Fragen und ist außerdem ein sehr guter Mensch! Wenn ich sechs Sterne vergeben kann, tue ich das!

Kairo - wunderbar
2 Tage Kairo
1 Tag altes Ägypten; Museum und Pyramiden.
2 Tag Kairo Basar, auf den Spuren christlicher , jüdischer und Muslimer Religionen.
Wir empfehlen 2 Tage. Die Busfahrt ist schon sehr anstrengend.
Die Nacht mit Blick auf die Pyramiden super.
Unser Guide Hamdeen war sehr nett und informativ. DANKE und alles in perfekten Deutsch.
Die Kleingruppe bestand aus höchstens 6 Personen.
Es wurde auf alles Rücksicht genommen. Was wir an Extras nicht wollten ( Felukke Kamel ) wurde nicht gemacht.
Alle Fragen wurden vorab und währenddessen immer schnell via WhatsApp beantwortet.
Wie hatten ein grosses Problem. Ein Reisepass wurde im Museum verloren und der reiseveranstalter hat ihn Abends organisiert ....wir sind sehr dankbar und zufrieden und empfehlen diesen Veranstalter.

Good experience
We travelled from Sharm to Cairo by bus with Book Tour Egypt Agency.
The trip begins at 1a.m. and there is only one stop at 5.30 a.m. to have breakfast. You will arrive finally at 9 a.m. to Cairo where the daily trip will begin, by visiting the Egyptian Museum till 11.30. After this you can choose to have a Nile Boat trip of 30 minutes. After this, you will visit Papyrus shop and lunch time at restaurant later.
In the afternoon, after lunch you will visit pyramids (2 p.m.), we went inside the biggest Pyramid of Giza and it was very hot inside and very tight space. After this we took photos and went to the side of Sahara desert, where you can choose to have a look of the 3 Great Pyramids of Giza.
Please don’t pay for riding camels and horses, they are treated very badly. Please choose to pay just to walk in the Sahara. Save animals.
After Sahara we went to visit Sphinx side, it was very beautiful.
At 5 p.m. we went to perfume shop, where a guy explained us how they make 100% natural perfumes and let us to smell 4 of them.
- during papyrus experience, the seller was very annoying and pushing, we liked how they show how to make papyrus but sellers are very pushing
- english guide Aladdin was very nice and friendly but we think he also scammed a little bit because at the end of the day he asked us for 160$ for services he did for us during day (boat trip (he said it was 30$ both of us), camels ride, 4 bottles of water, 2 cokes, photo at the pyramid and at the Sphinx)
- after all, our guide was good because he took very good photos of us and convinced the security to let us to visit Sphinx even at closing time (5 p.m.)
- restaurant Mawlana at lunch was very bad, poor quality, i felt bad in my tummy but my beloved didn’t
- it’s very fast visit. you need to visit fast everything, don’t lose time w food outside lunchtime and drinks because you won’t be able to visit everything
- don’t pay for rides on animals, they are overstressed and used for money
- The driver ask you in the end of day if you want dinner (5€) chicken and fries in your ride back to sharm
- we recommend the trip by bus because time difference by plane is not so much (2/3 hours) and the payment difference is very high (60€ by bus per 24h for person) (250€ by plane per 20h approx for person)
IMPORTANT: if you want to visit Cairo and Luxor you must pay at the arrival in airport for the Visa (30€/25$)
- We recommend to buy the trip the first days of travel or even before travel begins because the trips are not everyday available
- We recommend to buy sim card to have good connection to interact with agency that will contact you on whatsapp for cash payments and meeting
- the agency is available on answering messages even at 1 am at the departure

Worth every hour sat on the bus
We had the most amazing time, me and my mum took the day trip from Sharm departing midnight and arriving back +2 days at 4am. It was long but soooo worth it. Our guide Ahmed (English & Italian speaking) was exceptional and so knowledgeable. Our bus driver and escort were lovely too and there are regular stops to split the journey up. The attractions truly are once in a lifetime to experience!!
