Giza Plateau

What's the Giza Plateau you ask? Basically, its the huge, flat area in the desert where the ancient Egyptians decided to build giant pyramids to be their really fancy graves. That’s the Giza Plateau. It home for the massive Great Pyramid, the Sphinx (aka the world’s most famous cat statue), and a bunch of smaller pyramids too. If you see giant stones and a lot of tourists, congratulations, you’ve arrived. Actually, being at the pyramids was the best thing about being in Cairo. It felt like I walked into a history channel documentary. 10/10, would get sunburned again.

Amazing view… but need to be careful with local people…. Sometime it’s was really annoying…. I highly recommend go with a guide.. that will make everything easier..

The pyramids are amazing but the management company rents out an area near the sphinx and allows deafening, wall rattling music to play until past 3:00 am. It ruins any stay in the neighborhood. It's sad that the pursuit of money is destroying the experience of the only remaining wonder of the world.

The Giza plateau is like looking at a book out of ancient history. The fact that the pyramids are still standing is a wonder. I would recommend visiting early in the morning or later in the evening to avoid the basking hot sun and also the crowds.

The only remaining wonder of the ancient seven wonders. Tickets can be paid only with credit card. Avoid contact with the souvenirs seller and camel guys. Enjoy

This is one of the most beautiful places on earth. It’s very majestic and fascinating, it really speaks for itself. It’s truly jaw dropping eye popping. I’ve been here several times now and it never gets old. It’s one of the ancient wonders of the world and the last one still standing, it’s a very extraordinary place to visit and I would definitely recommend doing so.

While the pyramids are worth more than five stars, the camel and horse riders make you feel unsafe. Furthermore, they are very insistent and some of them are very intimidating. Shame that the authorities do not step in and make the site more safe for tourists.

It is the best place I have ever visited. The pyramids are gigantic structures. You will see a massive block of stones. It's a fantastic experience.
