Independent trip to Cairo (to the pyramids) and to Luxor.
September 22 we are going to Hurghada (although another option is possible with Soma Bay). We want to go to the pyramids and to Luxor. But after reading negative reviews about the organization of trips by local agencies (hurry, mandatory visits to unnecessary stores, etc.), we are thinking about an independent trip.
Who traveled independently from Hurghada (Soma Bay) to Cairo and Luxor?
- How often do buses run from Hurghada to Cairo, Luxor? When is the first/last? Are there buses from Soma Bay?
- How much does it cost to travel back and forth?
- What is the best transport to use locally? What is the price?
- How much are entrance tickets to attractions (if any)?
- How much does it cost to eat in Cairo, Luxor?
- What else you should know, share your experience :)
Thanks in advance for advice!

we traveled from charm. but there is no difference here, because the same buses run. from the central bus station of Hurghada there are basses almost every hour to Cairo. price 80-100 pounds for VIP-royal class. best of all is GoBus and their royal class with food and no stops to Cairo. there it is better to take a taxi or take the metro on the spot, but have a map of the city with you, an elementary guide, and make sure that the taxi driver knows where to go.
entrance to Giza 60 pounds, + surcharge for descending into the tombs.
entrance to the Citadel 50-60 pounds.

Eating in Cairo is generally a ridiculous price. From the belly eat 10-15 feet. Well, of course, not in tourist restaurants, but in local eateries.
PS they have delicious ice cream, natural)))

What about Soma Bay? What's with the buses to Cairo or should I go to Hurghada?

I want to clarify on a trip to Luxor. This year we are faced with the fact that for tourists to Luxor entry and exit from 6 am to 6 pm. So, just in case, consider this nuance.

And what does the harem have to do with it, I recommended a person a solid local travel agency that provides any, I repeat any requests, tourists. And I understand that Vadim is not as experienced in independent travel as you are, gudik. And I think my recommendations will not interfere with him, although he may not use them.

I have nothing to do with this travel agency other than using their services.
And if both the service and the organization are good,
why not tell people. Let it be advertising, I'm not deceiving anyone, neither Pegasus nor Tezztours will persuade me now to go on their excursions,
and I repeat, I do not force anyone to use my
recommendations. Everyone has their own head on their shoulders.
