if interested, I can send a full video from the excursion to Cairo, but in general, yes, it’s worth it, the pyramids, the sphinx, the perfume factory, everything is interesting, but if you need a video, I can hang the discs.

Sorry of course for the irony, but going to Egypt. where the pyramids are one of the most striking sights, your question sounds more than strange, are you from Moscow by any chance?

Julia 2007, I don't understand your irony, what does Moscow have to do with it? Of course, it is interesting to go to Cairo and see the Egyptian Museum, the pyramids, the Sphinx, but you need to take into account the night transfer there by bus. And then the way back. For many, this is exhausting. A trip to Luxor is much more pleasant if by plane from Sharm, or better by bus - from Hurghada. By the way, it is better to take a 2-day trip to Cairo, at the same time look at Alexandria.

Of course, you need to go, and not only to Cairo but also to Alexandria, traveling by bus is tiring, but take yourself a pillow from the hotel, and you will be less tired for sure ...)) But you must definitely go. I advise Teztour, you will be satisfied. There are many excursions and a perfume factory, and a jewelry store, and a museum of course. Apart from the pyramids. ))

I was in Hurghada and didn’t go on these excursions, of course I regret it from a part, but when I think that it takes about 5 hours to go one way by bus, all desire disappears

Need to go. Even if one of the dynasties of the pharaohs had not built their pyramids in Gizt, which today has merged with Cairo. Read http://www.otpusk.com/ref/eg/kair/info

I was in Egypt 4 times and didn’t go to the pyramids. I didn’t go-o-g-yes. I don’t regret it. 6-8 hours of the bus is terrible. Or rest or excursions. Ride excursions for 5 days - it will be cheaper. And it’s better by plane. I climbed Mount Moses - 3 years ago I can’t move away from it - how alive they are. In general, it’s up to you to decide. then he likes to sleep swimming. I get high from feeding super fish.

Of course, there is a sense, but there is one BUT: if you are not tired of long trips on the bus, because in total the tour takes a lot of time - more than a day.

I myself have not been, but everyone who told me liked it, but it’s very hard on the road! So it's up to you! Have a good rest!!!

hard, not hard ... take a pillow from the hotel and sleep peacefully. When you drive through the desert, look out the window. you won't see stars like that anywhere else. honestly. and the tour is definitely worth it. as already noted: to go to Egypt and not visit the pyramids is not right. I wish you a good holiday!

As those who said above correctly noted, it all depends on what kind of vacation you prefer: just wallow in the sun and feed the fish, or you are interested in learning the history of the region where you are relaxing. If you are one of the latter, then definitely go: to be in Egypt and not see the pyramids and the Sphinx is not to feel Egypt at all, not to catch its spirit ... And it’s better to go for two days: either to Cairo for two days (a very interesting program of the second day , and it’s easier to return), or Cairo + Alexandria.

I was in Sharm 2 times and went to Cairo 2 times, the pyramids are wonderful, I think it’s worth it to go, but the factories, on the contrary, are exhausting, you don’t want to buy anything for a lot of money (although the price is reduced by 2 times). And the pyramids are worth seeing.

And I want to add, needless to say, it's hard, elderly people and young people with their children traveled with us, OK, 99% of them go. And if you set yourself up for DIFFICULT in advance, then so be it. The mood should be positive and everything will turn out well. My health was bad when I left, but I do not regret a drop.

From Taba by Pegasus $75 per adult, $40 per child. They pick it up at 1-30 at about 8 on the spot, returned back at 24-30. Cairo is dusty, read and re-read about the pyramids, they were not very impressed, however, like the Sphinx, but the Museum is something !!! We swam along the Nile on a beautiful ship, they ate delicious food there. Excursions to the factory of papyri and perfumes (i.e. to the shops) were quite interesting. Buy souvenirs on the observation deck near the pyramids, it will not be cheaper anywhere. Tired. I liked the tour to Israel more

Spare no money and go. normal buses. Yes, it's tiring, but impressions are not bought or sold. They stay for life! And you will forget about fatigue as soon as you sleep off the next day.

People, don't throw rotten tomatoes, but I didn't like it very much in Cairo. Seriously, I was shocked by myself, but I got GREAT pleasure from the mountain of Moses. After that, you couldn't go anywhere. Such views, such mountains... God, I don't know, but I have some spiritual satisfaction from this excursion... We went to Cairo 2 days after Mount Moses. Maybe just a sea of impressions from the mountain blocked everything and a difficult night crossing, but I liked it only in the Cairo Museum.

And not so much the museum itself, but how our guide Hassan told us the history of Egypt. I stood in the front rows and listened with my mouth open. This is really interesting!!!
And the pyramids and the sphinx are the same as in the pictures. The Sphinx was never touched, but the pyramids... Ordinary yellow stones... For some reason I didn't feel the breath of antiquity from them...
I am very ashamed, but it is so .... (((

We really liked it, but we flew by plane quickly, easily. Our tour included a visit to the museum, drove through the streets of Cairo, lunch at a restaurant on a ship that stands on the Nile. Pyramids, Sphinx, shops. We were satisfied.

I don't even know what to tell you. For us, this question did not even arise. On our first visit to Egypt, on the third day we went to Cairo. I think it's worth going once. Tiresome, but what an experience! By the way, I liked Luxor less, although it was closer to go from Hurghada.
