How to get from Hurghada to Cairo to see the pyramids — by minibus tour or by flight?
Based on 1 discussion with 3 participants · Last activity: today
TL;DR
Shared minibus tours (up to 8 people) run from Hurghada to Cairo covering the Grand Egyptian Museum, pyramids and Sphinx; if you also want Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel, it's cheaper to fly to Cairo independently and take a separate flight back to the coast in Hurghada.
What the community said
If you're planning Cairo plus Luxor and Aswan (the Abu Simbel temple is an incredible must-see), it's more cost-effective to fly to Cairo independently, do the whole Cairo-Luxor-Aswan circuit, and then take a separate flight to the coast in Hurghada afterward.

On group excursion buses heading to the pyramids, be considerate of passengers sitting behind you — for example, recline your seat carefully so you don't inconvenience others during the long ride.
