Great and safe - Really enjoyed this trip which included the visit to a museum in Cairo based on Pharoah Tutankhamun's life, visit to the Pyramids Sphinx and a boat trip in the river Nile. I was a bit sceptical about the 6 hour road trip from Hurghada to Cairo, But the tour agent arranged for a comfortable mini van. Since we were travelling in a group of 12, he treated us with a private van without trying to squeeze in 2 more tourists for some extra money. We haggled a bit so managed to get a deal of around 65£ per person (10£ extra per adult for the boat ride) The guide in the van had a wealth of knowledge. He spoke about politics and the life of localites .He briefed us before hand when that we would be stopped on our way for our identity checks. We had 2 drivers to drive in turns to make sure our journey was safe. All of them being very friendly and caring and made sure we were together each time we got down for excursions.(The tour guide said that it was his responsibility to keep you safe during our tour which made us feel secure) The service stop was very clean as well (in fact better than the Hurghada airport) The tour guide took his time at the museum to explain the life of King Tutankhamun and welcomed any questions asked. He also explained the significance of the pyramids and Sphinx. Warned us to keep away from the camel owners and shop keepers who tried to rip off money from the tourist. On the whole, we really enjoyed this tour and would strongly recommend it if you like to know about the Egyptian history.

Horrible start to the holiday - The problem with this trip. It says on the advert that you should pay 30 euros on entering the bus ! We. Tuck the euros with us to Hurgàda intending to pay for trip as advertised ,but this is where the problem started . We arrived at hurgàda airport with Egyptian pounds to pay for the visa entry into the country ,as last time we were told this is the only currency they would accept . This time we were told euros or English pounds only ( as we had come from Edinburgh we only had Scottish currency) We informed the trip organisers of are dilemma and if we could pay in Egypt pounds .this was vehemently denied say we told you Euros . Having newly arrived at the resort we tried are best to find euros only with no avail so we again phoned the organisers and repeatedly are problem . having again negativity from them I said will have to report the situation on trip advisor . The reply knocked me for six " We will report you to the police ,for threatening my business " Wow Later they contacted us saying they would accept Egypt pounds Next morning (1:30 am ) the transport turned up and asked for the Euros when we told the driver of the situation at first he refused then asked for egp equivalent to £130 English . Told the driver ,after all the problems ,we were going back to bed and to carry on without us . This he did .After he had left we were contacted by the organiser telling us to go which half hearted we did . Later in the trip we were accused of making the party late so there wasn't half the time at the museum as there should of been . Really we had told them we wouldn't go ! All in all we will not be booking anymore trips any time soon
