See all 7 photos

Overview

Morgens werden Sie von Ihrem Hotel abgeholt. Sie führt entlang am Golf von Suez. In Kairo angekommen, nimmt Sie Ihr Reiseleiter in Empfang, der Sie die ganze Tour über begleiten wird. Der Ausflug beginnt mit einem Besuch des Ägyptischen Museums, das neben seinen über 120.000 Exponaten auch den goldenen Sarg von Tutanchamun beherbergt oder das alte ägyptische Museum. Im Anschluss genießen Sie Ihr Mittagessen. Der weitere Verlauf des Ausflugs führt Sie zu den großen Pyramiden von Cheops, Chephren und Mykerinus. Die Pyramidenbesichtigung endet bei der Sphinx und dem in ihrem Umfeld liegenden Tempel. Sofern es die Zeit zulässt, haben Sie zum Abschluss des Tages die Möglichkeit, zum Bazar von Kairo zu fahren, bevor die Rückreise nach Sharm el Sheikh angetreten wird. Am Ende des Ausfluges vielleicht besucht man Parfüm Fabrik oder Papyrus Fabrik un das hängt von der verbliebenen Zeit ab.

I guarantee Viator, beautiful tour

Fantastic experience from breathtaking, slightly tiring given the many hours of travel but if you can sleep, you will wake up in the history books

AWESOME!!!

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.

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.

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!!

Unforgettable experience

Great experience!!! The trip although very long, 8 hours 3 uncomfortable, since we were by bus. Otherwise the excursion was really wonderful, thanks to our guide who spoke very good Italian Mohamed (Cobra), explained everything very well, very prepared, professional and fun. Unforgettable experience. We paid 50 each plus the Visa they kindly thought of, 33 each. Cmq highly recommended!!!

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.
