A venue facing the great Giza pyramids and the sphinx, very neat, elegant and well serviced. Catering was great but this may vary based on the event management. Having an event beside the world's most ancient wonder really is breathtaking.
The Giza Necropolis,along with their wonderful history of pyramids, is a must-visit for anyone visiting Egypt. The history is long so will share how we went through the process. The drop off location is The Great Gate where the ticket booths are. For adult foreigners, the entry ticket price is 700 EGP. There are separate ticket options to enter inside the pyramids. Soon after passing the security, there are shuttle buses which operate as hop on- hop off and they are completely free to ride. The shuttle buses will drop at the specific locations so that anyone can enjoy and get on in the next bus again. Besides the pyramids, there is Great sphinx which is another attraction to enjoy. Things to watch out for are the camel riders who try their best to convince the tourists to take the rides or sell some stuff at quite high price. Nevertheless, the entire area is a remarkable display of ancient history that takes us back to the ancient times. 😊
Absolutely fantastic, something everyone should visit at least once in their life. Its very hot so come prepared. There are buses that take you around so you dont have to walk a lot, and they are very organised. Highly recomended dont miss it
An experience of a lifetime. Well organized, with buses to take you between the sites. You can roam freely as much as you want.
the last standing wonder of the ancient world. it was so amazing in person and much cooler than i thought. lots of hagglers but just ignore them. so much to see. i spent 3hrs here which is enough. free roaming and you can get to spots where there are no or very few people. really amazing place. you can ride a camel which they charge 1k but you can negotiate to nearly half that. don’t let them intimate you. HOW TO GET TICKETS-tickets were easily attainable by a self service kiosk for 700 egp or ~15 usd as a foreigner adult. they take visa and mastercard. quick and easy HOW TO GET AROUND- they have free shuttle buses that take you to many stops along the way including the main pyramids and the sphinx.
