Which resort in Egypt should I go to, so that it would be closer to go on an excursion to the Pyramids?
We want to go at the end of December and visit as many excursions as possible.

to the Pyramids is better from Sharm or Hurghada, like from Sharm even a little closer. And the winds there will not be the same as in Hurghada

What from Sharm and Hurgoda is the same plus or minus an hour.

If you take an excursion to Cairo by plane, then you will not feel much difference in distances))), and physically it is much easier than by bus.

Do not take the tour called "Skper Jeep Safari...."-;((( Jeeps are one name! Inside the car there are benches or chairs that hardly go along the sides of the car and no handles to hold on, we fell alone on another, and so we were shaking like planks in this old and terrible car. The real super safari is on super jeeps in Tunisia across the Sahara - this is really a super safari. But in Egypt there is no sandy and rocky desert and it shakes very strongly all the way and you go on UAZs, not on jeeps, the horror is shorter.

To the pyramids (Cairo) from Hurghada or from Sharm El Sheikh by bus to go almost the same time. It is very tiring, it takes more than a day, so if you fly to Egypt for a week, this one excursion will be enough for you. If you are traveling for 11-15 days, then you can still go on an excursion to the monastery of St. Catherine, very interesting

At the end of December, there is no reasonable alternative, only Charm

If you want to visit as many excursions as possible, then you need to go to Hurghada, to go to the pyramids by bus about an hour less than from Sharm. From Hurghada, you can go to the second attraction of Egypt, this is Luxor, there is also something to see. Buy excursions only from a hotel guide, although they are more expensive than from sellers on the street.

Definitely need to go to Hurghada. The pyramids are far from everywhere, but from Hurghada you can see Luxor, you will also see corals by renting a yacht (we paid only $ 100 for the whole yacht, 15 people rode). There are almost no winds in hotels near the city. the city is protected. And we always bought tours in street agencies and almost always rode in the same bus with those who bought from their guide three ways. But it's up to you. Have a nice rest and interesting excursions.

To Hurghada. If you want to see Egypt. Do not listen to those who say not to go to Cairo. Anyone who has not seen Cairo and Luxor has not seen Egypt. From Sharm to Luxor only by air. You can also see corals if you wish. It is better to take excursions from your guides, especially when it comes to a trip to Luxor, the south of the country is more dangerous. Here

To Sharm, I don’t know why no one remembered about the ferry to Hurghada, so it’s definitely in charm. It’s closer to St. Catherine, the colorful canyon and to Jordan, Israel (from Hurghada only by air), and there are much fewer tours from Hurghada. If If you go in winter, it’s not so windy in Sharm and a couple of degrees warmer, and it gets dark early in winter (everywhere), but it will be more fun in Sharm.
Tip: do not rush to visit all the excursions, better choose 2-3, you will get more pleasure from them, and remember more than from the daily flow of information from different guides, and running around. After all, the pyramids will not run away anywhere, the sphinx, too, stood for several centuries , that's half a year will wait until your summer vacation :)
