What a guide should dare to say
Giza Plateau
The only one of the seven ancient wonders still standing. Arrive at opening.
The extra bit
The postcard panorama is from the south-west mound, where the three pyramids line up. It's included in the ticket and almost nobody walks up early.
Know before you go
A separate, limited ticket is required for the inside of the Great Pyramid: buy it online the day before. Hat, two litres of water and closed shoes are essential. For a camel or horse: total price, duration and drop-off point agreed out loud BEFORE mounting, payment on return.
The addresses on the map
From Cairo to Aswan. Tap a city to see its addresses.
