Please don't waste your time or money.
First of all this trip is falsely advertised, the trip is advertised as an intimate group of 15. There were almost 40 people on our coach (see pictures) and my boyfriend and I were made to sit squashed up at the back with everyone on the coach reclining their chairs all the way back and cramped up like transporting cattle. I am pregnant and the bathroom was locked the whole time on the way there and we only stopped for a bathroom break about 6 hours into the trip the toilets were absolutely vile, no toilet paper and very unsanitory. I did not sleep a wink in the 8+hours we were travelling there. The group co-ordinators on whatsapp (Asma, Rana and Hesham) were absolutely useless, unhelpful and unorganised. When asked the details of naqb bay address they said no or to ask a taxi driver. My partner had to beg the coach co-ordinator for us to have better seats on the coach back so I was able to be comfortable and so I could sleep. The actual experience itself was nice, our tour guide Gimel was the only saving grace in the awful 24 hours we had. He showed us the museum, the pyramids and took us to see how papryus paper is made. The food at lunch was very basic and plain so don't expect a 4 star service. I would still ask for a partial refund as I think this is poorly advertised for what you are meant to receive for what you pay.

Fantastic day
My son and I had a wonderful day- yes it was a long journey but totally worth it. We did the extras of boat ride and camel ride too.

Wonderful day but hard trip
Amazing time in Cairo,thanks of our local guide Sarwat.He was very informative and professional with vast knowledge in Egyption history and gave us very good advice.The trip to Cairo itself was hard due to the guys from the transport company were disorganised,moving us from one bus to another.But apart of the traveling we had wonderful day.

Sarwat tour guide great ! Travelling experience was poor
The travelling to and from Cairo wasn’t at all a smooth ride and felt very unorganised. Firstly the bus/coach drivers forgot to pick me and my two daughters up from our hotel and it seemed the coaches stopped off more frequently for (smoking) breaks without warning which made the journey feel x3 longer than need be.
Nonetheless, once we reached Cairo, Sarwat was our tour guide which really gave us the experience we had hoped for. We paid additionally for boat ride which I personally wouldn’t recommend but visiting the museum, pyramid and sphinx was incredible to say the least. Sarwat was very knowledgeable and I and my two daughters enjoyed learning from him. (THANKS SARWAT)

Amazing time in Cairo! Egypt is safe ❤
The time in Cairo was great. We visited the Egyptian museum in the morning. We opted to pay extra and have a boat trip on the Nile, followed by lunch in a floating restaurant. After lunch we visited the pyramids which was amazing. Our guide was great, friendly and knowledgeable. The only down side was the 9plus jour coach trip from Sharm El Sheikh..it was a much longer than expected. Left our hotel at 12.15am returned the following day at 5am.

Journey in hell
Absolutely terrible experience with passengers. There was no direction and journey took too long. Too many stops with no notice or explanation almost every 5-10, so many unplanned and undeclared “police checks” making the trip 3 hours longer than expected, all the whole passengers in bus shouting and putting seats in our faces with us cramped, no discipline. Each man to his own. I felt traumatised after this. Do NOT recommend bus ride. However: tour guide named Sarwat was super nice, Egypt is safe , friendly, but careful of bus passengers and lack discipline and any sense of timing on a bus ride. Toilets horrible too, overall bus ride feels like we’re captives on a bus, no space no way to request for help. Each to his own, strongest wins. Egypt, tour and your guides are nice though.

Excellent experience. It...
Excellent experience. It is a life time experience. Tour guide Sarwat, was very friendly and explained all important facts about the History of Eygpt. I felt very safe through out the excursion. The young man who was on the coach who checked us in was very friendly. He gave up his seat so I can have more leg room . The coach journey too Cario and back did take more than 6 hours each way. However, it was for safety stops.

To do!
Our guide was exhaustive and fun! A unique and unrepeatable experience. Although the trip is tiring, it is absolutely worth it!!

2 Tage Kairo Lohnt sich sehr!
Der Ausflug war mega gut! Alle waren sehr zufrieden. Sowohl der Fahrer als auch Ibrahim unser Guide haben einen top Job gemacht.
Vielen Dank für die gute Planung.
Wir haben die 2 Tages Tour gemacht. Die Lohnt sich sehr!
Vom Balkon hatten wir Sicht auf die Pyramiden
