Enjoy a boat trip on the Nile. (for a fee) After visiting the pyramids of Giza, we go to the Great Sphinx, by far the largest and surviving sphinx. It consists of a human head on a lion's body.

Enjoy your lunch
The excursion continues with a visit to the great pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Menkaure. The pyramid tour concludes at the Sphinx and the temple surrounding it. Due to the convoy, the journey from Hurghada to Cairo (one way) can take between 6 and 8 hours, as all buses and cars must be escorted by a police vehicle for security reasons.
Since all buses must wait at the end of the day for the convoy traveling from Cairo to Hurghada, you will make one or two of the following stops: Characteristic visits to the Papyrus Museum and the Essential Oil Factory. These two attractions will introduce you to the ancient Egyptian techniques for producing papyrus and essential oils. These two interesting visits will broaden your knowledge of daily life in ancient Egypt and also help the Egyptian farmers who work in these sectors, preserving these very old crafts from ancient Egypt. (While you wait for the convoy to return)

Very nice polite guide helpful, always happy with this organizer.all top
Amazing tour by Abbas, everything went smoothly and it was overall a very exciting experience
Well organized and the minibus was good for the family trip. Very welcoming guide who allowed us to discover the Giza site and the GEM.
It was a really great excursion with our German-speaking tour guide Gamil Hassan👍🤗 Of course, you have to know that it will be a really very long and full day, but you are rewarded with wonderful impressions and information! The price-performance ratio is also simply unbeatable. We thank the BTE team, the bus driver, and of course Gamil Hassan👍 Lara & Angela
Gamil Hassan was really great. Lots of information and very helpful booking add ons etc. Highlyvrecommended
Booked as it was advertised as a small group, however the longest part of the trip is travelling on a full big coach, seats are allocated however we were made to move seats to accommodate a a couple of girls which resulted in us sitting in the back row of the bus where the seats are smaller and both myself and husband had no access to air conditioning for the journey making it the most uncomfortable journey ever, We were unable to sleep on the journey resulting in us being absolutely exhausted and soaking with sweat when we arrived at Cairo, the whole tour from pick up to drop off back at hotel was 24.5 hrs
Really enjoyed the trip, our guide Hussein how good at his profession that we were in ancient Egypt for a moment. Completely assisted us with everything
I recommend this excursion, everything is well organized from the pickup until the end of the visit, guide is top-notch and explains everything there is to know correctly
Gamil Hassan prepared a great tour for us. He was very proffesional, kind, and presented the locationas in a very interestig way. The pyramids are as spectacular as I imagined and The Grand Egyptian Museum in Kairo is the most most beautiful museum I have seen so far. The security and presentation of the arartifacts are like nothing I've ever seen. Museums around the world: take notes. An unforgetable experience. Everyone should visit. Highly recommend.
Gamil Hassan was an excellent guide! We had an amazing experience visiting pyramids!
