Great Trip and Excellent Hospitality / Care - I highly recommend this trip as it was thoroughly enjoyable, thanks to the great efforts of the organizers and an extremely friendly team dedicated to ensuring a safe and memorable experience for us. Special thanks to the Hurghada team who accompanied us throughout the journey. Communication / Pickup: A day before, I received a text requesting my room number and hotel details. Once provided, I received an estimated pickup time, and the team arrived promptly at the hotel reception. The process was well-organized. Travel: We all know that the journey from Hurghada to Cairo and back was long, but the coaches were much more comfortable than many airline seats. There were well-placed comfort breaks, similar to UK motorway services, offering snacks, cold drinks, coffee, hot food, and clean facilities. Cards were accepted, and the quality of service was excellent. The stop at Seattle Coffee was particularly enjoyable, and I appreciate the team's choice of good places. Attractions: We visited all the attractions in the itinerary, with sufficient time at each location. Tips on do's and don'ts were provided before every attraction, enhancing the overall experience. Optional extras were available for a hassle-free trip, and I strongly recommend exploring the pyramids using a camel or horse for a unique experience. The camel ride leader was friendly and took great pictures of us. Lunch: The buffet lunch provided was good. Drop-off: The team organized the drop-off, ensuring everyone reached their respective hotels smoothly. Thanks a lot. Overall Tips: a. Cash: It's advisable to have Egyptian pounds and optional USD for purchases, snacks, drinks, perfumes, or tips. b. Tips: For optional extras like camel rides, we offered tips after taking pictures and some split it at two locations i.e after taking pictures and at the end of the ride. Additionally, appreciation to the team(driver, sercurity, Aymun, etc) was shown with tips once all activities in Cairo were finished during our return to Hurghada Service/Safety: The service was of a high standard, and the team prioritized safety. Thanks a lot for the extremely professional service; it is much appreciated.

Beautiful Ancient Egypt - It was an incredible experience! We got to see the iconic Pyramids, mysterious Sphinx, and the fascinating Egyptian Museum. The journey from Hurghada was comfortable, and our guide was knowledgeable, providing interesting insights into ancient Egypt. The Pyramids were awe-inspiring, and the Sphinx had an air of mystery around it. At the Egyptian Museum, we marveled at the impressive artifacts and treasures from the past. It was a day filled with history and wonder, and I highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Egypt

A unique adventure - My fiancé booked this trip as a birthday gift for me and the whole experience was beyond words. We started with a trip on the Nile River which was incredibly fun & emotional as everyone started singing happy birthday and I even got an amazing video of it. From the whole city & people of Cairo, the pyramids, camels and just seeing so much of Egypt traditions and culture made us feel special and very welcomed. Yes it’s a very long journey, we left at 3am and got back at 11pm. The coach arrived 20 min late & on the way back we were stopped for 30 min at a police checkpoint. Maybe 1 hr was wasted due to this but the rest of the day was without any issues. It definitely could be tiring at times but they stopped for breaks often in safe spaces. The whole team was very good with communicating every step of the way. Our guide was fantastic & had very good knowledge. But what I liked most about her is that she told us ahead what to expect when going shopping. I felt safe on the road as there were many police checkpoints and the drivers were very good also. All in all we fully recommend this experience and you will feel amazing after seeing the last Wonder of the Ancient World!

I signed up to visit the... - I signed up to visit the Egyptian Museum and the Pyramids; we were fast tracked in the museum and the pyramids only to create time to do a tour on the Nile, a visit to a papyrus factory and a visit to a perfume factory which took together more than two hours cutting time on the true purpose of our visit. It was a very long day spending 22 hours all together. On the way to and back the busdriver was almost always on his phone while driving but not hands free; I had to point out several times that regarding the savety of a bus full of people he should pay attention to the road and use his phone hands free.
