We got to see the pyramids
Hanan was our guide, and a very nice lady who accompanied us through the boat trip on the Nile, museum, lunch, the pyramids and perfume shop. We felt safe and well taken care of. Very good knowledge. The day will be very long and laborious, but worth it. Our kids are 11 and 13, and I would probably not travel with young children.

Not happy at all.
From Hurghada to Cairo could have taken around 5 hours, but instead took 10. The first hour of the journey was spent crammed into a minibus that was driven at very dangerous and uncomfortable speeds around Hurghada picking people up. 9 hours later we arrived at Cairo and were told to get off the bus, no further instructions were given in English so my son and I were left not knowing where we were or what was happening. All we could do was follow everyone else to join a queue where we stood in the baking sun for 30 minutes, again, not knowing why. We eventually realised it was the Egyptian Museum we were at. We weren't given the audio equipment to hear the tour guide until another visitor told the guide as, again, no English was being spoken. My son and I were very tired, hot and confused. We were then made to stay in the one spot of the museum listening to the history of Egypt instead of seeing the artifacts. By this point we were extremely unhappy, so much so that we decided to leave the tour and got a taxi to take us to the pyramids then back to Hurghada. This was around midday (we were picked up from our hotel at 00:30). We were back at our hotel for 18:00, so in just 6 hours we managed to go from Cairo to Giza, walk round the pyramids and get back to Hurghada. Had we been informed of the schedule for the tour beforehand, I wouldn't have booked it as it's far too long to spend on a bus for the distance travelled.

Great trip.
Packed day, great guide (Mohamed), long journey but the coach had a toilet, great lunch, and of course the sights, which are like nowhere else.
It’s long of course, and we had a little waiting around which prolonged our day (they did not cut our attraction time down, instead we just got back late, which is the right way to handle it IMO).

Great day
We had an excellent guide with Mohamed, who really made sure that we learned a lot and he was great with the kids.
The lunch was great, and our kids enjoyed it too. The journey is long, but the coach had a toilet. There was a mix of nationalities on our coach, but we were split up into groups and had a guide each, which really made the experience better.

Very interesting, but also exhausting in some places
In general, the tour was great you saw everything and could also feel in it. Also the Nile tour for ten euros I would recommend to everyone. However, there are also 1-2 negative points, such as the long bus ride or the visits to perfumery or papyrus load.
Nevertheless, in itself a clear recommendation and above all a thank you to the lady Hanan who showed us everything great

Very good
Hanan was super helpful and gave you any freedom.
Organization very good, however, it should be noted that this tour is very strenuous.

This is the factory
Very disappointed with this activity, the organization is zero, the food is really beef and it is the factory it is armored with people, the drinks are 3€, in the famous "big bus" it is worse than in the plane level place for legs
And not much time for sightseeing...
Too much time at the museum and not enough time at the pyramid site.
Frankly avoid the carriage ride on the pyramid site, already it is a 10/12 year old who runs the horse, and in addition he only whipped it all along, to end up offering to take pictures with your own phone and then claim money, and for some other tourists on the same bus as us; he did not want to bring them back until they had been tipped. I hate it.
Luckily our guide was friendly
