My girlfriend for 8 days-7 nights visited Mount Moses, Luxor, Cairo and about. Tyrant (still managed to get a tan)! There is no limit to perfection. The guide, selling her tours, beamed with happiness! True, and tried to dissuade from such a rich program, but where is it.

1st day - buy excursions. At night from the 1st to the 2nd day - leave for Cairo. You return at night. Day 3 - trying to get away from 1000 km of travel, two shortened nights. Day 4 - Luxor. Day 5 - lick your wounds from the second long drive and short night. 6th and 7th day - two more small excursions can be realized. 8th day - we transfer the body to the Motherland and rest from such a rest.
May I ask, is this your last trip to Egypt?
аватар Anetka-gan
you will have time)) but physically it will be hard to move the roads - it will take a long time to go
аватар miki08
Tell me please, why? If you still want to see the whole of Egypt, it’s not easier to immediately buy a tour for example: Hurghada + Nile Cruise + Cairo, and even better; Egypt !!! Hurghada + Nile Cruise + Cairo + Alexandria! The cost will probably be the same in general, but the rest is better.

why do you need a hotel then??????? a backpack with a tent on your shoulders and go ... (just kidding) you can see when you go to sharm) and next time go to sharm, taboo or dahab and take excursions to cairo, petra or jerusalem ... where to rush, the pyramids stood and will stand (but the dead sea dries up). Enjoy your vacation, good luck...
аватар AlexL
This is not a vacation, but a mockery of yourself, although if you get high from many hours of bus travel, then you can also stop by Alexandria.

Everyone relaxes differently! someone likes a "vegetable" vacation: lying around on the beach, someone is interested in seeing everything)
My husband and I, for example, do not want to go to Egypt 10 times (there are many countries in the world!), Therefore, on our trip, we tried to see the country to the maximum, although it was only 8 days. You can do everything if you want! Wish you luck!
We traveled from Hurghada to Cairo and Alexandria with one night accommodation in Cairo. The tour from the tour operator cost us $160 per person.

O! Paradise Island!! for_luda knows what he's talking about! :))
Of course, a trip to Luxor from Hurghada is a must! And since you fall ill with Egypt once and for all, then visit the rest of the sights on your next visits.
аватар for_luda
simauma so why didn't you go to Luxor yet ... Here we are talking not about one excursion, but about 2 and quite difficult ones ...
аватар Simauma
Don’t know, don’t know))) we didn’t get sick with Egypt for some reason)))) But once you definitely need to go there!
We did not go to Luxor due to our personal circumstances, and not because we did not have time or could not)
I will repeat once again, despite your negative assessments of me, that everyone for himself initially determines what kind of vacation he likes.
Of course, those who do not tolerate long journeys should think about it.
But if you are full of strength and energy and you have a great desire, then everything will work out! Good luck to everyone and have a good rest!
P.S. The Cairo-Alexandria tour is easier to carry than the 1-day Cairo tour, and it is more informative and eventful.

On the first day of arrival, if you buy all the excursions you need from Teztour, then they make 20-25% discounts, went to Hurghada for 11 nights, bought 8 excursions, did not regret it !!
аватар for_luda
said simauma raising her rating due to the negative ratings of others...
Well, everyone has their own opinion, but I’ll say for sure at one time you won’t see Egypt properly ... there are a lot of places worth seeing
аватар nataliaaa25
we visited this way, but these excursions were in a row .. very tired .... I don’t advise .. it’s better to choose one of these two .. and also quads or a small one ...
аватар anbendas
You can have time, although it is tiring, but when you look at the pyramids, you forget about fatigue.
take a tour to a simpler hotel and smaller meals (not OLL) save money
аватар for_luda
anbendas rightly noted that if you decide to "rest" to the fullest, it's better to take a tour at 4, and with what kind of food it's up to you ... Just don't forget that most of the time you will be on excursions ...
аватар Zlata28
you can, but I wouldn't recommend it
two such heavy excursions in one trip
pick one this time
and leave the second for the next holiday in Yegi
аватар AngelaK
I can give you a mob. tel. tour owner. firms in Hurghada.
The price for excursions is 30% cheaper. Checked. Not kidalovo. She returned 10 days ago.

Subtract the day of arrival and the day of departure (usually crumpled). Two days Cairo and Luxor, there are 3 days left for swimming. Decide for yourself, if you don’t do it with children.
аватар CAESAR_100
For 8 days I visited Luxor (you should definitely visit everyone !!!), and Cairo (I chose a one-day trip), and other places of interest. We were not tired at all, though it was even easier to go to Cairo, it was not hot, as in Luxor. To get to Luxor in the morning, we left Hurghada at 4.50 am, to Cairo - 1.30 am.
аватар CAESAR_100
Everyone took excursions from their tour operator "TEZ Tour" on the first day, so there were discounts of $ 10 for each, and bonus excursions that cost $ 35-45. I don’t remember the exact prices, Cairo is about $ 75 (this is by bus, by plane about 120 bucks), Luxor is cheaper. In each excursion lunch is already included in the price - in the best restaurants. From Hurghada to Cairo - 450 km.

"In each excursion, lunch is already included in the price - in the best restaurants" - it's a pity that the places where we were forced to dine during the excursions are the best restaurants...
аватар CAESAR_100
orhideya21, you are probably out of luck, but we had great restaurants. In Luxor - a restaurant of the CARVERY RESTAURANTS IN EGYPT chain (carvery-eg.com), in Cairo - Sphinx Sun 2 (sphinxsun2.com). Restaurants may not be the best of course, but you definitely can’t complain about the food in them and the service. If these are garbage dumps for you, then go to rest in Dubai, maybe there is at least some seven-star "shed" that will suit your level and your requirements.
аватар Ariha
Indeed, you fly to Egypt for the last time, you just get exhausted. Take one excursion to Cairo or Luxor. We flew for the first time 4 years ago to Sharm for 7 days, my husband took Cairo, a motorcycle headlight and a walk on a yacht, that's a lot! Crazy not rest! Now I take only one excursion and relax!
аватар orhideya21
2 caesar 100. The word "heaps" in my post did not sound anywhere. Although in vain. We are not sure, we are definitely not lucky. Turtesse took us to dinner in some eatery, standing right on the waters of the Nile. I don't remember the name, maybe what you mentioned. There was a choice of food. Edible was observed poorly. They took pilaf, instilled confidence in the sight and smell. At the table, several people took out pieces of shells (although the pilaf was meat) and pebbles. It was unpleasant. Something else was worse. We decided to visit the toilet (it is located on the back of the kitchen and you can see what is happening inside). While they were trampling around, a prana with slops ran out, splashed everything into the river, wiped the floor near the table and, with THESE dirty hands, threw something into the cauldron with oil to fry. It's good that we had pills, we drank them right away. 3 people vomited in the dry closet on the bus. Ambre on the way back was amazing. If this is what CARVERY RESTAURANTS IN EGYPT is, then it is worthless.
And you should not reproach me for my elementary requests for each person. And any "seven-star shed" will suit not only my and your level and requirements, but any person. It is expensive. But even if lunch is cheap, this does not mean that it needs to be cooked in complete unsanitary conditions.

The whole problem is that many people think that Tez tour and other operators organize these trips for you, in fact, everything is trite simple, they take money from you and buy these trips from the worst local companies, and put the difference in their pocket. When you yourself buy in the city from a cool operator, then you have a fresh bus and food in a good restaurant, it fights for clientele, and tourists pass their addresses to each other on websites. Because people have such different opinions about travel.
аватар AngelaK
miki08. So it really is. I met the owner of the tour purely by chance. firms in Hurghada. Went at his prices for several excursions. Prepayment only for large ex., such as Cairo, Alexandria, Luxor. Moreover, first they put you on the bus, you get acquainted with the guide, decide whether the bus and the guide suit you, and only after that you give the money. "Small things" (like an island, diving, etc.) you pay only after the excursion. With us for all ex. they traveled in the same bus, lived in the same hotels and ate at the same restaurants, TurTess, Pegasus, TezTour, and so on. ONLY 30-40% EXPENSIVE!
аватар nadin_20
AngelaK and miki08 tell me the addresses and phone numbers and the name of local companies for excursions in Hurghada please!!!
аватар AngelaK
Blue moon agency. Owner Khalid. Mob. (012) 383 45 59. I called him from the reception for free. Or asked him and he himself called back to the hotel room. Just be sure to say that from Angela from Kyiv, she lived in the "Princess". Came back less than a month ago.
Good luck and have a good rest!

2 orhideya21. Das, I sincerely sympathize with you, our eatery was not near the Nile, really, as someone is lucky.
аватар LANGIS
for a week of rest in HURGHADA to LUXOR is a must, but also to CAIRO - this is already a feat! from 8 days we remove the day of arrival and the day of departure, the day is LUXOR and the day is CAIRO. Remains 4 days at sea ... is it worth it?
