Itinerary 

A day trip to Cairo from Hurghada by private car is a longer journey but offers flexibility to explore Cairo’s attractions at your own pace. Here’s a guide to planning your trip:

1. Early Start

Departure Time: Leave Hurghada around 2:00-3:00 AM to make the most of your day in Cairo. The drive is approximately 5-6 hours (450 km).

Vehicle: Use a comfortable, air-conditioned car or SUV with a professional driver.

Giza Plateau

Great Pyramids & Sphinx: Start your Cairo exploration with the most famous landmarks.

Panoramic Spot: Stop for photos with all three pyramids in the background.

Optional Camel Ride: Experience a short ride near the pyramids.

        2. Egyptian Museum

Marvel at ancient artifacts, including Tutankhamun’s treasures and mummies.

Guided tours are recommended to get the most out of the exhibits.

        3. Lunch Break

Enjoy a meal at a local restaurant. Many tours include lunch with Nile River views.

        4. Old Cairo (Optional)

Khan El Khalili Bazaar: Wander through the vibrant market for unique souvenirs.

Citadel of Salah El-Din: Visit this historic Islamic landmark with panoramic views of Cairo.

        5. Return to Hurghada

Departure Time: Leave Cairo around 5:00-6:00 PM to return by late evening.

Expect a 5-6 hour drive back to Hurghada.

Key Considerations

1. Cost: A private car trip can be more expensive than other options but allows flexibility and comfort.
2. Driver/Guide: Hire a professional driver familiar with the route and an experienced guide in Cairo.
3. Travel Safety: The route is well-traveled, but stick to main highways and drive during daylight hours if possible.
4. Essentials: Bring snacks, water, and entertainment for the long drive. Comfortable clothes and shoes are a must.
