Exploring the iconic pyramids and the Sphinx in Cairo was truly a highlight of our trip from Hurghada. The private car made it convenient and comfortable, especially during our overnight stay, allowing us to seamlessly dive into the rich history at the Egyptian Museum. Our only minor hiccup was the slight delay in departure, but the experience of witnessing these ancient wonders made it well worth it!

The private car journey from Hurghada to Cairo was well-organized and offered a comfortable way to explore the pyramids and the Sphinx. I stayed at a charming hotel near the Egyptian Museum, which made it easy to unwind after a long day of sightseeing. The guide was knowledgeable and shared fascinating stories that brought the ancient history to life. One drawback was the traffic congestion in Cairo, which prolonged some travel times and made the days feel a bit rushed. However, the chance to see the awe-inspiring structures up close truly made it worthwhile. Overall, this experience opened my eyes to Egypt’s rich heritage and was a highlight of my trip. If you’re a solo traveler looking to immerse yourself in history, this tour is a great option.
