Danica – Hungary

The whole trip was well-organized and the price was cheap for its good quality. Our guide Ahmed Hassan was nice, funny and had a great knowledge about the history.

Juanita – Netherlands

We had a nice day with Ahmed Hassan as our tourguide. He knew a lot about the piramides and the ancient times. Also the drivers were very nice and drove save. It is a long day but very worth it. You will see one of the world wonders, that is quite unique. Also the museum is a must visit. The oil and papyrus tour wasnt something for me, but that is personal. We want to thank you for the nice trip!

Full description

Experience an unforgettable full-day adventure from Hurghada to Cairo in the comfort of an air-conditioned van. Begin your day with an early morning pickup from your hotel and enjoy a scenic drive across the vast Egyptian desert as the golden sunrise welcomes your journey to Egypt’s legendary capital.

Your first destination is the iconic Giza Plateau—home to the world-famous Pyramids of Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Stand before the awe-inspiring Great Pyramid of Khufu, explore the neighboring pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure, and capture once-in-a-lifetime photos of these ancient marvels.

Continue your exploration with a visit to the Great Sphinx, the mysterious monument with the body of a lion and the face of a pharaoh. As you walk among these timeless wonders, your professional Egyptologist guide will share fascinating insights into the rich history, myths, and legends of ancient Egypt.

After the pyramid complex, enjoy a delicious lunch at a carefully selected local restaurant—featuring stunning views of either the Nile River or the pyramids, depending on availability. Refreshed and ready, you’ll then head to the Egyptian Museum, home to one of the world’s most impressive collections of ancient artifacts. Marvel at over 120,000 exhibits, including the dazzling treasures of King Tutankhamun, ancient mummies, and countless relics from Egypt’s pharaonic past.

You’ll also have the option to enjoy a peaceful boat ride along the Nile River—an enchanting way to see Cairo from a new perspective.

Wrap up your day with a drive through historic Tahrir Square, and if time allows, browse a local bazaar for traditional souvenirs and local crafts. Finally, sit back and relax as you return to Hurghada in the evening, carrying unforgettable memories of one of the world’s greatest civilizations.
