About water, this is a noble divorce. The first time I got there, I remember the heat was under 40 degrees, I didn’t feel like eating, but I really drink, and they shove 0.5 for 2 bucks. After that time, I always take two and a half bottles bought in a supermarket for 4 pounds.

Alex, it’s not a group of schoolchildren, it’s the same ones who beg everywhere, They are of different ages, but they always behave in the same disgusting way. dollars for 0.5 l, before skipping the line for the pyramids, or as an option that they show you a pyramid with a bad view, and they will spend where a gorgeous view. In general, the practice of breeding even on something that cannot be in nature is very developed there, just make sure to shrug it off.
After the trip, I had more impressions fu than ah - ah.

No, immeno schoolchildren, inside the museum, in uniform, there were a lot of school groups (immeno in the museum), and I tried not to notice the merchants even then, but now I generally ignore them, they see who it makes sense to pester and who not .
On the territory of the pyramids, one pestered not to step aside "let's take a picture", "here are souvenirs not expensive", etc. I barely restrained myself so as not to send in a rude form, since I did not react to the ignore.

It takes longer to drive from Sharm than from Hurghada. Already wrote???? We drove from Sharm, it's tiring, but it's worth seeing the wonder of the world once. But this is my opinion, for example, for 8 visits to Egypt, my husband has never been to the pyramids, because it’s not worth it to go for a long time and look at the stones. In general, you need to set priorities, if you see the Wonder of the World, then it’s worth losing a day from the tour and suffering some discomfort from the trip and visits to the "corrupt" factories of oils, papyrus, etc.

The official guides said that they gave up day trips to Cairo, hard. They take two days. From the reviews - to go this way, and the pyramids themselves are allocated an hour and a half, this is catastrophically little, most of the time is lost in shops at factories. The people are going crazy, rowing everything.

Natasha 59, dragging around the shops is not just discomfort - it's minus one PAID day at the hotel, especially if the hotel is not 3+, then this is not the smallest amount, and at the same time, having spent money and time on an excursion, you come to the conclusion that you have to hang out you can go shopping in the evening leaving the hotel with the same success and much cheaper, and without tiring trips. Therefore, if you want to visit excursions, it is best to buy an inexpensive hotel in the winter and devote time to travel.

We flew by plane to Cairo from Sharm in February 2018 with my husband and daughter. We paid $175 each. The guide was wonderful, the group was small, they drove around Cairo and Giza in a tiny minibus. The museum, a walk along the Nile, were taken to different quarters of Cairo, including the quarter of scavengers. We looked at Giza. There was plenty of time on the pyramids to see everything slowly, go down inside the pyramids, take pictures and buy souvenirs. There were also shops and factories. We took the visa ourselves at the airport upon arrival, the hotel was booked from HB, as numerous trips were planned in advance. Impressions of Cairo itself are still the most vivid! Having been there, you begin to appreciate your reality differently. I liked the pyramids too. The trip was full day with lunch at a floating restaurant. Not tiresome. I liked it very much!!!

Impressions are amazing! True, I was the first time back in 2003. Then we also went by bus from Sharm (the same distance as from Hurghada) with a 4-year-old child. The road, of course, is somewhat tiring, but the 7th wonder of the world and the National Museum, and a walk along the Nile, are worth it. The child never complained of being tired. 10 years have passed, she still remembers this trip with delight! But personally, I won’t go to Cairo for the 3rd time!) The cost now, as they wrote above, is about $ 50 per bus. Search on Naama Bay, on the Internet, bargain. If you are planning to Cairo in advance, buy a visa at the airport.

No no and one more time no. It's so tiring that neither the museum nor the pyramids are cute anymore. I would like to quickly wash up in the hotel and sleep. The trip is a disappointment.
