The Cairo day from Sharm
The coach leaves Sharm between 01:00 and 02:00, crosses the Sinai and the Suez Canal through the Ahmed Hamdi tunnel and reaches Giza around 09:00. The pyramids, the Sphinx, lunch and the Grand Egyptian Museum (or the Egyptian Museum, the Citadel and Khan El Khalili), then the same road back to arrive after midnight. It is the longest bus day we sell and it is also the best-selling tour from Sharm.
By plane the day is comfortable: 04:00 pickup, 06:30 flight, a private Egyptologist and car at Cairo airport, the same sites with more time, and the evening flight home.
Luxor from Sharm
There is no road day to Luxor from Sharm; the flight via Cairo lands in Luxor at 09:30 where your private Egyptologist waits for the West Bank and East Bank, returning at 21:00.
