Day Trip to Cairo by Bus

We had a wonderful time, Ahmed is always helpful and very friendly, its the second time we have Tour with him and it problaby wont be our last time. the Lunch was tradicional from Egypt and it was very good, and the guide was also good.

Excellent tour guide who was very knowledgeable about the sites we visited. The food provided for lunch wasn’t great but there was plenty of it

It is not by bus but minibus, where you packed inbetween other travellers like a sardine with very poor air con for 6 hours one way with a bare minimal leg room. There is 2 toilet stops during the transfer to Cairo and back in very poorly sanitised places and often with one toilet between all of the travelers from your microscopic bus and other coaches. Forget about the luxury of toilet paper. When we arrived to Cairo we got 2 guides, English and German. I was lucky enough that I speak both languages so I got a bit better experience as the German guide was more informative than our English chap. First stop was museum where we spent maybe 40 minutes running behind our English guide (including toilet break with humongous cue). If you are a bit physically out of condition or has a disability like me or heart condition with defib don't even consider booking. Most of the group struggled to run behind the guide and when we got there he already finished talking/ explaining the story behind the artifacts. That persisted throughout all day so apart from getting from place to place he was pretty much useless. Then we got 30 minutes to go around the museum which is not even near enough to see even half of one floor with the amount of crowds- pretty big disappointment. Then you are taken on river cruise (optional) and charged 200 egp per person extra. That would be nice if not the blasting loud music. Then you are taken to the restaurant for lunch-fish boat- with no fish available. The buffet style lunch had really poor choice with lukewarm, oversalted food that was truly the worst we had over our 2 week stay in Egypt. Than you are taken to Giza to see pyramids and sphinx. It was nice to see it and enjoy the views however once again running in full sun to chase the guide was not my best holiday experience. On the way back you are taken to very mediocre quality shop with perfumes and papyrus where you get nagged to buy. Before you accept drink there, opposite toilets they have a kitchen covered with curtain, just have a little peek and then evaluate how desperate you are for one of their teas or coffies. The journey back was as bad as going to Cairo. Don't get fooled that they will provide snacks or drinks as you cannot get hydrated with 50mls of orange juice or coke/ haven't seen snacks. At the end of it they had a cheeck to nag for 5 stars review and they stood next to you and look what you wrote than soon as everyone wrote the review the Internet on the minibus was switched off. At the end of it they were stretching hands for tips. What a joke as totally undeserved. Overall do not recommend it at all. Nice to see pyramids but the overall experience wasn't pleasant at all. My partner also has been left way behind and trying to explain by himself that he cannot go through security gate due to heart device implanted and the guides would not help or wait for us at all. Hence is a big NO From us.

Wow this trip was spectacular! I would recommend you this agency for sure! The guide Mamdue (mama) was perfect, he is living in Cairo for his whole life and knows everything that google doesn’t heh. I really recommend booking with Ramashka, we got the snacks and water, fresh orange juice .. loved it!

Bus was comfortable with cushions, WiFi, TV, phone charger, plenty of drinks and snacks- it helped as it was a long drive. Amazing to see the pyramids, camels, Sahara desert and river Nile. The tour guide Mamdou, host Ahmed and the driver were all friendly and knowledgeable. Great experience!

This experience made my whole trip so much better. Everything was on point, the timing, the guide was incredible full of knowledge, the organiser was a great host, offered us drinks and snacks through the trip always made sure we were enjoying our time. I didn't feel like I was in rush like in most of the tours. We stopped in Nice places were we could pay a fair price for items (not like in most places where they charge a lot to tourists). I left Cairo full of knowledge and passion about the country. I had a lot of tours during my travels and this was the best one so far. Definitely recommend it 😊

Absolutely wonderful day and trip.We had a really knowledgeable and friendly tour guide.Our transport was so comfortable. We would definitely recommend this company to everyone.

Everything was great! Our guide "Mamma" was extremely knowledgeable and passionate and helped us as much as he could. He was very friendly and genuine and we had a great trip. Thanks so much!

Absolutely wonderful trip, Cairo was different to how I remember it but great to see it again our guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about all the sites we visited. Mr Ahmed and his team - Atif, Ma Ma, Captain Sayed made the whole trip brilliant

Trip to Cairo was amazing from Hurghada and was well worth the trip. Tour guide was excellent and was very knowledgeable and even helped us be more aware of the locals and made us fell safe. What could be improved is more snacks (savoury and sweet) for the tour. As the tour is nearly 20 hours from pick up to drop off it would be ideal to make sure tourists are satisfied and not hungry. The restaurant part of the tour had very limited vegetarian options.
