Pyramids
The Pyramids of Giza are Egypt’s most iconic landmarks and a testament to ancient engineering marvels. Located just outside Cairo, these majestic structures—most notably the Great Pyramid of Khufu—date back over 4,500 years. They are part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site that includes the enigmatic Sphinx and various smaller pyramids and tombs. A visit here offers a glimpse into ancient Egyptian civilization, combining awe-inspiring history with breathtaking desert landscapes.

Things to Know Before You Go
Wear comfortable shoes as the area is vast and involves plenty of walking. Bring water, sunscreen, and a hat to shield against the desert sun. Be prepared for persistent vendors and bring small change for tips or purchases. Hiring a knowledgeable guide is highly recommended to understand the history and significance of the site. Remember, climbing the pyramids is strictly prohibited for safety reasons.
How to Get There
From central Cairo, you can reach the pyramids via taxi, ride-sharing apps, or organized tours. Public buses and minibusses also operate routes to Giza, but they may be less convenient for first-time visitors. For a hassle-free experience, book a private driver or a guided tour, which often includes transport, tickets, and expert commentary.
When to Get There
The best time to visit is early morning or late afternoon, when temperatures are cooler, and the lighting is ideal for photography. Peak tourist hours are mid-morning, so arriving early also helps avoid crowds. Winter months (October to February) are more comfortable for exploration, while summer can be scorching.
Day Trips from Cairo
Many tour operators offer day trips to the Pyramids of Giza, often combined with other attractions like Saqqara and Memphis. These tours typically include hotel pickup, transportation, and guided exploration of the sites. Some even offer unique experiences, such as camel rides or dinner with a view of the pyramids. If time allows, consider an evening visit to enjoy the Sound and Light Show, which illuminates the pyramids and recounts their fascinating history.
