Get ready that the tour will be long, the lion's share of the time will take the road, so I advise you to buy a trip from your tour operator. This is at least some guarantee of your safety and acceptable service on the trip.

Definitely TO. Less likely to get into an accident, tk. the speed is prescribed by the police car ahead, and in Cairo, the policeman escorts the bus all the time, does not allow outsiders to enter the bus, and generally makes sure that nothing happens to the tourists.

It is better to take it from the operator, although it is more expensive, firstly they are responsible for you and the guide is Russian, they have at least some responsibility for delivering you to the hotel. I want to say after the tour is over they immediately relax and no one cares.

It’s already been said about buying a ticket from TO, I’ll add from myself about convenience, take a pillow with you from the hotel, you won’t regret it))) I definitely regretted it, no one warned me and we had to travel from Marsa Alam for 11 hours .... and envy those who slept comfortably sitting with a pillow in an embrace))) Super excursion, and be sure to go down into the pyramid and into the boat)))

We always buy trips to the beach and everything is fine. and it costs twice as much. Well, for some certainty, you can buy in the city, it’s just that it’s really very expensive from TO.

By the way, last year in October we had a rest in Hurghada, excursions to a motorcycle safari and a paradise island were bought for $ 20 on the beach and everything is ok!

4 days since we returned from Hurghada, we took all the excursions in a travel agency on the street, near the hotel, Luxor at the guide costs 70 dollars, there - 50, there is no difference, except for 20 dollars, we also hooted on a large comfortable bus, at the hotel they gave a dry ration and a late dinner, the guide was Russian-speaking, an archaeologist, we got a lot of impressions, I also want to note that there are excursions every day, and these 180 buses go in one convoy, with security. Just don’t rush to give money right away, like asking the price.

We also took an excursion to the coral islands - $15 per person, I really liked it, by the way, this is the cheapest and more time for snorkeling, the evening moto safari is just super - $25. Diving -27-30$, Cairo 50-55$

I want to say that if you buy a tour not from that, then it will be worse than from others. We always buy from the same travel agency and I want to say that we are traveling on the same bus with those who purchased from the guide. So it's up to everyone to decide, but for the price, of course you save. If you are interested, I can tell you.
