Giza · Inside the Giza plateau

9 Pyramids Lounge

The only restaurant inside the site, with all nine pyramids in a row.

€€€ High end

A low terrace set inside the archaeological enclosure, from where you see the three great pyramids and the six small ones in line. The menu is simple and service slow; what you buy is sitting inside the site.

The extra bit

Save it for the end of the visit: the best way to come down from the walking before you leave.

Know before you go

Access requires the plateau ticket: you cannot walk in from the road.
