Private Excursion to Cairo

5.00What a great service! Last summer we spent three weeks in Hurghada with our family. Because there were six of us, we booked a private excursion to Cairo via Hurghada Transparent. We were picked up by a neat, comfortable bus and had a quiet, professional driver who spoke good English. The private transfer really made the two days in Cairo a lot more relaxed and fun. Definitely recommended!
Great time

5.00We booked the private trip to Hurghada, we were picked up from the hotel and the whole trip was well planned and delivered more than we expected. In the past we used the normal tour operator tours, and I would definitely say that this private trip delivers a great experience, with private guide and everything one would need to spend a great day and not worry about anything. Highy recommended.
Perfect.

5.00I got in touch with Hurghada Transfer to drive us from the Airport to our hotel in El Gouna. The driver was waiting for us when we arrived, the car was spotless. I then asked them to organize us an excursion to Cairo, again, the organization was perfect, friendly and punctual drivers, comfortable vehicle. We also benefited from a French-speaking guide who takes us on a tour of the museum and the Giza site. In short, I highly recommend this agency.

5.00If you are looking for a convenient, comfortable, excellent and reasonably priced solution, then Hurghada Transfer is THE solution. Based on the very positive feedback on TripAdvisor, we appealed to them. Everything started great and was very proactive from our warm communications with the boss via WhatsApp. Visit the Cairo Museum, meals at the foot of the pyramids, Giza plateau as well as a one-day tailor-made tour including the Valley of the Kings, tombs, the Temple of Hashemput, the Colossuses of Memnon, crossing the Nile felucca, Karnak... All this in an air-conditioned car from our hotel in Hurghada, and with a driver could not be more polite, kind and friendly, our dear Mahmoud. Our guides in French, Marwa in Cairo and Ali in Luxor of the most available, competent and good company! In summary = AWESOME - recommend ....
Excellent services from beginning to end

5.00I contact Mohamed to asked about the cost of two tours one for Cairo and one for luxor, price was good and also the reviews help me to choose his company, also the communication was good so we decide to do both tours with Hurghada transfers, Tours were up to our expectations in relation to cost, transport, guide, lunch and services, the guide tours very friendly and helpful, drivers were very professional and ready to help us in any aspect. From the beginning we dint have to worry about getting ticket entrance to the sites, lunches were in a very nice places and very typical of the city a plus it was an opportunity to feel the true taste of Egyptian food and also to interact with the locals. Mohamed also was always contacting me asking me if everything was going well, so it was showing that he cares about the quality of the services provide to us. Also Hurghada transfers manage our transfer from the airport to the hotel and to the airport, always on time and good value for money. If you are looking for a good company to provide top quality services at good price Hurghada transfer is the people to contact. Our groups was two colombian families with 6 years old kids and a teenager.
