Departing from Hurghada, by bus, it is still very long (departure 5 a.m. return 10:30 p.m.). Uncomfortable bus but great drivers. Endless check point passage. Esmat, French-speaking guide, very pleasant and clear. Certainly we see unique things in the world, it's absolutely magnificent. For the price, we could be offered at least 1.5L of water per person. Be very prepared, it is extremely hot and leave with good shoes, a large hat, something to cover yourself so as not to burn, coins and plenty of water. The Valley of the Kings is truly extraordinary. Karnak too. Walking along the Nile allows you to see the life of the Egyptians, to see the fields of crops, the piles of waste... and taking a boat trip is very nice and folkloric. The temple of Hapchetsout dominates the Nile valley. The obligatory passage through the papyrus factory is nice, the one at the artisans working the alabaster a little more disturbing. At the end of September at 47°C, I admit that I didn't make the most of this day. However, it will remain unforgettable.
