On the road
Hiring a driver is a practical way to reach Beni Hassan, Tell El Amarna and Tuna El Gebel. Middle Egypt has more checkpoints than most regions, and foreign visitors are sometimes given a police escort, so allow extra time.
The same car does the trip in reverse too, so this page also covers Minya to Cairo.
Drop-off points
Minya city, the Beni Hassan tombs, Tell El Amarna and Tuna El Gebel.
