Cairo Attractions

This place is just WOW! The Pyramids of Giza are a must-see. I was there with my brother and we had a great time. The views were breathtaking. We took loads of photos, and the Sphinx is just as amazing as you’d think. I would go back for sure!

Visiting the Giza Complex was on my bucket list, and I finally made it happen last week. I went solo and decided to grab the skip-the-line tickets, which was a smart move because the entrance was packed when I got there. I got in pretty quick and started exploring. The Pyramids are just breathtaking... I mean, you see them in pictures, but standing there in person? It felt surreal! I spent a lot of time just walking around the bases of the Pyramids, taking in every angle. The Sphinx was right there, too, and I was like, 'Wow, this is history!' I opted out of the guided tour because I wanted my own pace, and I’m glad I did. Just a heads-up, if you want to go into the Great Pyramid, be ready for a tight squeeze and some stairs! It was a bit of a workout, haha. But I loved every minute of it. If you’re thinking about going, definitely wear comfy shoes and bring water. Walking around can get tiring, but it’s soooo worth it. Overall, a fantastic experience!

I had an incredible experience on my guided tour of the Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Saqqara, Memphis Tour from Cairo. Our group was small which made it a wonderful experience and we were able to all hear the tour guide. Our guide was Mahmood who was the BEST tour guide I have ever had in my travels!! He knew the answers to all our questions, took us to the best spots and took INCREDIBLE photos of us at the pyramids, and made sure we each had a wonderful experience. I can't recommend him enough!

It was very, very impressive to be inside a pyramid for once. However, you need to be in good physical condition to get to the burial chamber through the sometimes very narrow corridors, where you can only walk up and down for long stretches bent over. Not for claustrophobics.

Took a while to get the tickets. Order 2 hours ahead. But got amazing service via AI and personal assistant in a chat. Tickets came through. Very good.

Arranged tickets and transfers (hotel to GEM and return) via Headout. The process was seemless and simple. Spent a few hours wandering the GEM at our own pace. Messaged the driver 30 minutes before return pick up. Enjoyed a coffee whilst we waited.
