‼️Read this and make your trip to the Giza Pyramids more comfortable Of course, this is Egypt's main attraction, and it will always be crowded.

Thin are toentrat one is eithe the site, tae, facing the Pyramid of Khufu. Choose which one you're most interested in and head to that entrance. Crowds gather quickly, especially after tour buses arrive around 9:00. ❌Also, it's better not to plan your visit on Friday or Saturday, as these days often see Egyptian school trips. 🎫 Entrance ticket: 300 EGP (~$10) 🎫 Inside the Pyramid of Khufu: 600 EGP (~$20) All tickets can be bought only at the entrance counters and only with a card, cash is not accepted. If you buy only entrance tickets and later decide to go inside the pyramid, it won't work. Buy the necessary tickets at the entrance!

#bucketlistreboot The Papyrus Institute was our final stop on the itinerary in Cairo before heading to Giza. In all fairness it’s more of a souvenir shop however, we felt there were some notable elements to it as well. Upon entering you will be provided with guide to show you around the shop but also give you an idea of how papyrus paper is made. The paper itself it created using a lattice pattern and then pressed for 6 days to preserve its shape. Once done, the paper is very versatile and robust. One could drop it in water and the paper simply recovers when dry. It also “heals” easily from tearing it. All you have to do it is water the affected area and then attach the torn part. All very interesting. Although the shop boasts many works of art of papyrus and many specific souvenirs we though prices were far too peppered for what essentially is a piece of paper with some design on it. Prices start at 300 EGP but are negotiable based on quantity and should we say seller appetite to close the sale. Additionally, if you really want to buy a papyrus paper with your favourite graphic on them, there are plenty of merchants around the Giza Pyramids selling them for 10 EGP per sheet. #cairoegypt #urbanexplorer

#bucketlistreboot Our trip to Cairo also featured a trip on the Nile on a felucca (a traditional Egyptian wooden boat) on the way to our lunch venue. The boat trip wasn’t included so we had to pay an additional £7.50pp which we haggled for from £10pp. Overall the trip was ok, nothing spectacular but offering nice views of Cairo and Giza. There are a few islands we passed by that were interesting – one of the palaces for the Pharaohs and another which was a gold mine. We think it’s a great opportunity to take a few photos and see Cairo and Giza from a different perspective. The boat trip brought us to a floating restaurant Fish Boat Abouzeid, our lunch venue. The restaurant was ok and was overlooking the Nile. Some of the food served were a chicken stew, potatoes, rice and salads but you could older other things like seafood from from the menu. #cairoegypt

#bucketlistreboot Nested near the Tahrir Square where the 2011 revolution happened, the Egyptian Museum can be accessed through one of the side streets in between the hotels. The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities, known commonly as the Egyptian Museum or the Cairo Museum, is home to an extensive collection of ancient Egyptian antiquities. It has 120,000 items, with a representative amount on display and the remainder in storerooms. The museum showcases many mummies and burial artefacts. It also hosts a detailed exposition with the actual King Tutankhamun’s sarcophagus and belongings including the famous burial golden mask. #urbanexplorer #cairoegypt

I am passionate of Egyptian culture and I read many stories about Egypt. I have been fortunate to visit Cairo for myself and it has been a life experience. After visiting the pyramids and other places around, I wasn’t sure if Cairo Museum was going to be that fascinating. IT IS!! I totally recommend you to invest your money and time in this place because it is worth it. It is amazing how things got preserve. You can see the mummies, pendants, tombs, sculptures. The museum is very well prepare with little cards to help you discover more about it and if you want to get deeper you can always get and audio guide or a local guide at the entrance. Personally, I am looking forward to go back there. #cairoegypt #museumcairo #egypt

This trip has always been on our bucket list. Have you ever seen something in so many text books and movies and then have that awkward feeling of realisation that you’re actually standing right in front of it? We did with the Pyramids. As one of Egypt’s iconic archaeological sites, the Giza Pyramid complex (including the Sphinx) is a must for anyone in this world. What made it even more special for us, is exploring this on a camel (first time camel riding)! Whilst in Cairo, we also visited the Egyptian museum and the Papyrus Institute. The trip also featured a trip on the Nile on a felucca (a traditional Egyptian wooden boat) and a lunch on the Nile on a floating restaurant. We traveled from Sharm El-Sheikh by bus (27 hours in total) and it was 100% worth it! #bucketlist #bucketlistadventures #cairoegypt #egypt #cairomuseum #traveltheworld #travelwithus #pyramidsofgiza #pyramids #sphinx #dreamcometrue

The Grand Egyptian Museum recently launched for the public in Cairo. A great experience exhibiting tons of monuments, and once you get to the top floor…you get flabbergasted with an absolutely amazing view of the Great Pyramids.#historicallandmarks #cairoegypt #gizapyramid #historytour #egyptianhistory #egyptianmuseum #egyptiangrandmuseum #egypt

Cairo was absolutely magical! I had the chance to visit the oldest and largest church in the world, and as a Christian, it was so special to hear stories that reminded me of home. It's funny how those little moments can transport us back, right? There's so much more I wanted to do but time flew by. Fingers crossed for a return trip soon!#egypt_where_history_started #cairoegypt #christianity #desertlife

An amazing fruit in amazing country. Egypt is great country with great people.you can visit especially in spring, but winter is also fine. i recommend to visit Alexandria, Hurgada and Sharm el Sheik. If you love piramids, stay in Cairo. if you wanna travel accros city, I recommend taxi and not rent a car as traffic is caotic. Whatever..Egypt is nice story to read and remember!#cairoegypt

Visited one of the best international school in Egypt. Met students from every part of the world living in Cairo. Glad to be back after almost 2 years gone #awesomepic #cairoegypt
