Adventure at the PYRAMIDS of GIZA!

With 1 full day in Cairo, of course the pyramids are my first stop. Oh & picture or it didn’t happen! The pyramids are located 15km from the city center of Cairo. If you think they look impressive in photographs, wait till you’re standing at the foot of one of the pyramids! Business Hours: 7:00 - 18:00 Arrive early to purchase your ticket (starting at $10) Be prepared to spend at least 3 hours inside. Recommended visiting time: October to March (Winter) Once inside you can see the Pyramid of Khufu, Pyramid of Khafre, The Great Sphinx, Pyramid of Menkaure, Cemeteries, Tombs and Temples. There is A LOT to see, learn and photograph. Activities available inside are quad biking, horse riding, Camel rides, guided tours etc.. carry some $1 notes for tipping if that’s your thing. There are many souvenir stores all around the place but you will need to know how to bargain because the prices are hiked up as it is a tourist spot. Recommendation: go inside (walk) see all you need to see then save the activities for the end. Wear sunscreen, a hat and sunglasses for your own health and safety. Once done, we went over to a local family restaurant and tried some local cuisine namely: Koshary. It’s a must try! #egypt #pyramids ##gizapyramid ##egyptshots #localguides #freehotelstay

Egypt was by far one of my best experience. Being that much closer to the pyramids is a breathtaking moment that everybody should experience once in their life time. oh yeah, me and that horse is a love story 😂. At some point I literally didn't want to get off. I spent exactly 2 hours riding it around the pyramids. And at end the i had to pay quit a price for it 😂. it was worthy though, You Only Live Once so enjoy the moment while you can! #egypt #pyramids #gizapyramid #cairo #africa #horseriding #awesomemoment #goodmoment #ctrip #awesomepic
