The Egyptian pyramids are the only surviving wonder of the ancient world's Seven Wonders. The three main pyramids were built by Pharaohs Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, with the Great Pyramid of Khufu being the largest existing pyramid in the world, constructed over 4,600 years ago. Originally serving as tombs for the pharaohs, the pyramids symbolize a staircase to eternal life. Their intricate structures and advanced stone assembly techniques continue to astonish modern-day observers. Standing before the pyramid complex, one feels a profound sense of humility and awe at the wisdom of ancient civilizations. It's almost as if you can hear the whispers of the Egyptian pharaohs. This ancient sandy landscape offers views of towering pyramids, the enigmatic Sphinx, the bustling cityscape of Cairo, and caravans of horses and camels weaving through—a truly unforgettable legendary scene. ‼️ Significant improvements have been made to the Giza Pyramid area since April 2025: 1. The entrance has been relocated to the Pyramids Visitor Center, featuring a modern building with ample space and an exhibition hall introducing the Giza Pyramids. 2. The park's shuttle bus system has been enhanced, with designated stops at each attraction. This resolves previous issues with private tour guides, taxis, camels, and horses, making it easier for independent travelers to explore the entire area. 3. A fixed price of 500 Egyptian pounds for camel rides has been established, along with tourist police signage. While this provides a basis for negotiating with camel vendors, new tactics and scams have emerged. We'll share our experiences with camel scams in the Giza Pyramid area in the next post—it’s truly exhausting! 😮💨

#springwander Visiting Cairo in spring was an unforgettable experience! The weather was just perfect—not too hot, not too cold—making it the best season to explore the ancient wonders of Egypt. One of the highlights? Riding a camel around the Pyramids of Giza! There’s something magical about seeing the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx while slowly moving through the desert on a camel. It truly feels like stepping back in time! And let’s be honest, taking a camel ride photo with the pyramids in the background is a must for any Egypt trip. Why You Should Visit: ✔ Perfect weather in spring—comfortable for sightseeing and desert activities ✔ A once-in-a-lifetime chance to explore the Pyramids of Giza on a camel 📍 Address: Pyramids of Giza, Cairo, Egypt #EgyptTravel #Cairo #PyramidsOfGiza #CamelRide #SpringInEgypt

#goingplaces Visiting the Pyramids of Giza is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. These iconic structures, built over 4,500 years ago, are the last remaining wonders of the ancient world. The site includes three main pyramids, the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre and the smaller Pyramid of Menkaure. The largest, the Great Pyramid, originally stood at 146 meters tall and is made up of over 2 million limestone blocks. Walking around, you can't help but marvel at how the ancient Egyptians built these colossal structures with only simple tools. Despite centuries of research, the techniques they used to move and position the massive stones with such precision remain a mystery. Note : Pyramid tours are generally expensive and priced in USD. #100waysoftravel #pyramidsofgiza #egypt

#closetonature Visiting the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt was an absolute bucket-list experience! Standing in front of these ancient wonders, especially the Great Pyramid, left me in awe. The entrance fee to the Giza Plateau is about 240 EGP (around $8), and if you want to enter the Great Pyramid itself, it’s an additional 400 EGP. The sheer scale of these monuments is mind-blowing, and seeing the Sphinx up close added even more magic to the day. The best part was exploring the desert surroundings on a camel ride, with the pyramids towering in the background—it felt like stepping back in time. Afterward, I visited the nearby Solar Boat Museum, which gave me an even deeper understanding of Egypt’s incredible history. This is one of those places you have to see to believe! 🏜️🐪🏛️ #PyramidsOfGiza #AncientEgypt #BucketListTravel #WondersOfTheWorld #TravelEgypt #HistoryComesAlive

Cairo is filled with so much in one city ! Of course you need to see the great #Pyramids of Giza ! Book a small hotel across from them for the best view. I stayed at the Egypt pyramids Inn and enjoyed my stay. Make sure you have a local guide. They can customize much more for you and give you a more authentic experience. The new museum was really cool ! Be aware that as a tourist many of locals will invite you to shop, be clear about what you interested in buying so you don’t waste time being haggled into shopping. I went to the local perfume and oil shop and it was very nice but very expensive FYI. Overall there no place like Cairo ! #pyramidsofgiza #Cairo #egypt #Kingtut #historicallandmarks #solotravel

Visiting the Giza Pyramids in Egypt was an absolute dream come true. As I stood in awe before these ancient marvels, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of wonder for the incredible craftsmanship and rich history they embody. This is the last of the seven wonders of the Old world still standing today. ✨Top 5 Tips: 1️⃣ Consider visiting early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid crowds and enjoy the pyramids in a more serene atmosphere. 2️⃣ Hire a knowledgeable local guide who can provide historical and cultural insights about the pyramids and help navigate the site. 3️⃣ Be prepared for vendors and touts who may approach you offering souvenirs or camel rides. Negotiate prices firmly and be cautious of scams. 4️⃣ Respect the rules and regulations of the site, which may include restrictions on climbing certain pyramids or entering specific areas. 5️⃣ Take your time to explore the complex and appreciate the pyramids from different angles. There are photo opportunities at various viewpoints. . . . #egypt #pyramids #pyramidsofgiza #travel #travelegypt #beautifuldestinations #sevenwondersoftheworld #travelguide #traveltips #travelvlogger #trending

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

Pyramids? Giant. Desert? Hot. Vibes? Immaculate. Still can’t believe I saw these in real life! What’s next? #PyramidsOfGiza #DesertDiaries #Wanderlust #NoFilterNeeded #BucketListTicked ✔️

Excited to see one of the 7 wonders of the world🥳 It was an amazing trip however we went in January so it was a bit cold. Many tour guides willing to show you around so be ready with a tip😅 All in all would def visit Egypt again😌 #pyramidsofgiza #wondersoftheworld #travel #trip

#celebrateit #pyramidsofgiza #egypt Visiting the Pyramids of Giza was truly a dream come true for me. It definitely lives up to the hype. They are truly grand and offer so much history. I loved walking around the pyramids. You can also go inside if you like. The magnitude , scale and opulence really left us in awe of the place. It can get busy as lots of tourists visit here so I advise you to time your visit accordingly. You can also go to a lot of restaurants and dine there with pyramid views. All in all, it was an amazing experience to be here. I definitely recommend visiting this top most attraction in Egypt.

I chose this hotel specifically for the view but got so much more value upon my stay. The staff are so helpful and friendly. They spoiled me with so many complimentary services like breakfast on arrival, early check in as my room was available, one free airport transfer, free flow on the beverages keeping me hydrated throughout my stay, a complimentary shopping tour and the view… the view from my bedroom !!! Magical. The reception staff are all so pleasant. The waiters and room service staff are all pleasant and kind. The receptionist even helped me catch a taxi off her local app because I was running into issues with mine. Acts of kindness which touched my heart and they gave us a little souvenir ♥️One of the best hotels I’ve ever been to in terms of experience and comfort. The hotel was full of South Africans so I felt at home. #Gaiapyramidhotel #historicallandmarks #pyramidsofgiza #egypt

This is stop is a must in Egypt. If you don’t do anything else, do this. The pyramids are close enough together that you can walk to take a photo of all of them. There are options like horse, camel, or carriage rides. I personally did the carriage. It should only cost about $70USD. Anything more and they are scamming. Also, it’s just best in general to go with a guide because there are scammers trying to ask for a tip if you take photos of their animals and when you go to the tombs, they will try to ask you for money for tips. #egypt #worldwonder #pyramidsofgiza

It was a very good nice trip but if you want to go to Egypt you should have a guide to avoid the sharpers #travelphotography #exploresgtogether #familytrip #historicallandmarks #pyramidsofgiza #egypt #egypt #cairoegypt

We had 16 hours of layover in Egypt. ❤️We asked at the information desk about hotels around . They said we qualify to get a free hotel and free food , So we had to wait for them to process our documents and to confirm the accommodation we were going to . They gave us a paper that has all the information about hotel and our details . We got a stamp Visa that allows us to go outside the airport. We also asked about going to the pyramids , they explain you everything at a front fest . There are so many people who are looking for people who are going there , you will pay for transport that will take you there at the hotel and take you back once you are done . ❤️that how we got to the pyramids. We took this chance to travel around Egypt . People are friendly . We paid ¥1500 to get inside and see pyramids. With ¥1500 you get everything including photographer (they use your phone )🇪🇬🇪🇬🌍🇪🇬🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾#Egypt #pyramidsofgiza #nileriver
