Short description

For a more comfortable ride to the capital, this Cairo mini group tour from Hurghada takes no more than six guests in a modern air-conditioned minivan. A professional Egyptologist guide travels with you, and the smaller group makes it simple to chat and ask questions along the way. The trip runs daily. The drive between Hurghada and Cairo takes about six hours each way, so the full day lasts around 18 hours, and your pickup time depends on where your hotel is.

In Giza you explore the Great Pyramids and stand in front of the Great Sphinx with your guide. From there you head to the Egyptian Museum, which houses an extraordinary collection of ancient treasures and royal artefacts. The programme also includes a panoramic tour through Cairo and lunch at a local restaurant before the long ride home in the evening.

Lunch and the entrance tickets for the Giza Pyramids area and the Egyptian Museum are included. Entry inside the Great Pyramid, the optional Nile boat trip and personal expenses are not. Please bring your passport with your Egyptian visa, and expect moderate walking during the visits.
