What to wear?
Tell me how to dress for excursions to Cairo and Luxor in terms of convenience and practicality, taking into account the road? Are there excursions to Cairo and the pyramids now based on safety?

Whatever is comfortable for you, then wear it. Usually breeches, T-shirts, comfortable shoes, and a hat.

The best option is light, wrinkle-resistant trousers and a shirt or tunic (preferably with a sleeve) so that the shoulders are covered, comfortable shoes and, of course, a hat and glasses, because the sun is mercilessly scorching. I also took thermal water with me, it helped a lot, especially in Luxor there to the south and it's hotter, especially in the gorges in the valley of the pharaohs, it's very hot. Grab either an inflatable travel pillow or take it from the hotel to come in handy on the bus, you can go to sleep for a long time and even a sweater or scarf on the bus is sometimes cold from air conditioners.

We also took a pillow from the room and something to hide. It's a long drive, but it's still cold at night.

Be sure to take water with you. Eat - the hotel provides lunch packages (you can have breakfast with them). Lunch is usually included in the cost of the tour.

I took with me cookies, dates, tangerines and water, if you get hungry there will be something to eat during the transfers. Of course, they will give a lunch box at the hotel (by the way, check this moment at the reception in the evening, especially if you go from a local company), but it is only enough for breakfast.

And from whom to ask for these lunch packages and when, well, maybe some kind of application is needed in advance?

You can buy a local SIM card in the same Season, they say, they will connect it to you there. I know that the guides also sell, but they are clearly more expensive, otherwise you can look at the store on the first evening and do the job.))
