How to choose your Cairo trip

Cairo is about 460 km from Hurghada, so the main difference between the tours is how you get there:

  • Bus — the most affordable option. You leave around 1–2 am, reach the pyramids in the morning and are back at the hotel around midnight.
  • Small group — a minivan for 8–14 people: a faster road and less waiting at each stop.
  • Plane — about one hour in the air and no night driving. Easier with children or at the end of your holiday.
  • Private — your own car and guide and your own route: add Saqqara, Dahshur or Old Cairo.

What the programme covers

Every option includes the Giza plateau with the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx. Depending on the tour you then visit the Grand Egyptian Museum with the treasures of Tutankhamun or the Egyptian Museum on Tahrir Square, Old Cairo, lunch and sometimes a boat ride on the Nile. Entrance tickets, lunch and an Egyptologist guide are usually included — check each tour page.
