Great
Lovely trip, guide and driver were great, can avoid perfume shopping and papyrus museum. Be ready for the airport chaos of Egypt no flight take off or land on time.

Wat te doen in Sharm-el-Sheikh
Dagtrip naar Sharm el-Caïro inclusief vlucht, Pyramids GEM of Ancient Museum
Alle 27 foto's bekijken
Overzicht
Ontdek het grootste museum voor oude Egyptische kunst en zijn schatten uit het rijke verleden van Egypte, zoals de hoogwaardige grafgiften. Tijdens een bezoek van ongeveer twee uur vertelt onze gids op humoristische wijze over de belangrijkste tentoonstellingen en beantwoordt hij uw vragen. Bewonder het laatste overgebleven wereldwonder - een werkelijk legendarische ervaring! In totaal vindt u hier drie piramides: de piramide van Chephren, de piramide van Cheops en de piramide van Menkerinos. U kunt de omgeving te voet, te paard of op een kameel verkennen. Na een bezoek aan de piramides van Gizeh gaan we naar de Sfinx, veruit de grootste en best bewaarde sfinx. Het bestaat uit een mensenhoofd op het lichaam van een leeuw. De Sfinx werd uitgehouwen uit de resten van een kalksteenheuvel die diende als steengroeve voor de Grote Piramide van Gizeh. Feluccatocht op de Nijl. In overleg met de reisgroep en tegen betaling beschikbaar.

Esperienza assolutamente da fare
Abbiamo prenotato da casa questa escursione con volo da Sharm al Cairo. Con un po' di diffidenza iniziale per gli accordi abbiamo vissuto un'esperienza impegnativa ma bellissima. Sono venuti a prenderci nel nostro resort, caricati in un altro resort un gruppo di inglesi e accompagnati fino all'aeroporto di Sharm. All'aeroporto del Cairo ci ha accolti la nostra guida ( Benedetto per gli italiani) preparatissimo e sempre disponibile che si è dovuto dividere per le spiegazioni tra italiano e l'inglese ed insieme all' autista Mister X ( davvero un mitico personaggio che si è districato con una guida da gran pilota tra un'incredibile traffico caotico ) ci ha portati alla visita delle meravigliose piramidi (dove facoltativo e a pagamento abbiamo fatto una passeggiata in cammello), pranzo un bellissimo e buonissimo ristorante a buffet e la visita al mostodontico museo GEM. A fine serata ripreso il volo per Sharm e riportati al nostro resort. È tutto organizzato alla perfezione, non dovete pensare a nulla se non godervi tutto questa esperienza.

Cairo by flight from Sharm El Sheikh
Although it was an enjoyable it was very long it said 6am start but in fact pick up time was 3.35am and not back until 1am. Make sure you take at least £20 per person with you for camel/horse ride and Nile boat trip. Our guide Fahney was a good guide lots of information, if you’ve not seen the pyramids it is worth it but the museum has been modernised but extent busy so no much time to get around it in the 3 hours given..

Pyramids and Grand Museum
Hi all Pick up was punctual, we were greeted and transfer to the airport, Sharm airport was efficient and the staff involved were polite and helpful, same with arrival at Cairo, Ali the driver was top notch 👊🏻, our tour guide Mustafa was very polite and very knowledgeable in all aspects of the tour. He helped with all purchases and kept the sellers in line! Traditional Egyptian Lunch was a privilege as was as authentic as you can get in a private place no other tourists. The New Grand museum was amazing, Mustafa was so good and always made time for our family in every aspect. We also were taken to few other places on route between the Pyramids, Lunch and the Grand Museum. The return was as seemless Thanks again All 👊🏻

Well-Organized Transport, but Rushed Museum Visit and Too Many Commission Stops
We booked the Sharm to Cairo Excursion by Flight for our family of 8, and while some parts of the trip were organized well, overall the experience was mixed and not very memorable. Positives: The pickup and drop-off arrangements were smooth and punctual, which was appreciated, especially when traveling with a large family. The Nile boat trip was enjoyable and relaxing, and it added a nice touch to the overall itinerary. The main sites themselves are, of course, impressive and worth seeing at least once. Negatives & Concerns: Unfortunately, the Grand Egyptian Museum visit was far too short—only about one hour, which felt rushed and insufficient for such a world-class museum. Instead of giving us more time there, we were required to return early to the assembly point. What was most disappointing was the unnecessary one-hour stop at “Kings Ali perfume oil”, which felt like a pure commission stop arranged by the guide. The oils were extremely expensive (our family spent over £300), and despite being told the scent would last a long time, it didn’t even last 30 minutes - something we only realized after returning home. This stop felt like a scam, and we would much rather have spent that hour at the museum. Similarly, the guide strongly advised us not to buy souvenirs anywhere except from his recommended sellers, claiming others would scam us. In reality, it felt like the opposite. At the recommended souvenir shop, prices were increased by around 50% once the guide approached, clearly due to his commission. Nearby shops sold the same items at much lower prices. ⚠️ Beware of guide-recommended shops—they often include heavy commissions. It also became very obvious that the guide earned commission from everything, including camel rides, souvenir vendors, oil shops, and painting tours. These stops felt forced and unnecessary. Vendors near the Pyramid area in general are best avoided, as prices are inflated and pressure is high. The buffet lunch was another letdown - below average in quality and not particularly enjoyable. Overall: While the sites themselves were okay, the experience was over-commercialized, rushed, and focused too much on guide commissions rather than guest satisfaction. This tour could have been much better if time had been spent on cultural highlights like the Grand Museum instead of business-oriented stops. Good logistics and iconic sights, but poor time management and excessive commission-driven stops took away from the experience. Advice for future travelers: Avoid buying anything from guide-recommended shops Be cautious with perfume oil and “included” shopping stops Push for more time at museums rather than commercial locations

Best trip of my holiday
Information from the tour operator was very good,helpful and kept in contact. Picked up on time,assisted at the airport,again found our rep easily in Cairo. I did a short trip on the nile,the pyramids which was fascinating,as well as a horse & carriage ride. Dinner was included which was tasty,then the GEM museum which is huge,you will not cover it in one day,be patient as it's busy. We also had the usual shop stops,to entice us into buying stuff,it's up to you. Bring plenty of Egyptian pounds for tips. Our guide was funny & knowledgeable and Cairo is an absolutely crazy city.

Un’esperienza da fare
Pur essendo una lunghissima giornata vorresti che non finisse mai. Tra il nuovo Museo e le Piramidi si passa una giornata indimenticabile abche Grazie a Mohamed (Il Cobra) una guida eccezionale tutta per noi. Anche il ristorante a Giza era buono e con una terrazza vista Piramidi. Eviterei il giro sul Nilo Per il resto un’esperienza indimenticabile
