Explore Great Pyramids of Giza as Solo Traveler

📍 Itinerary Overview 🚗 Uber to Giza Pyramid Entrance : 120 EGP ( From Nile Corniche) No cars are allowed past the entrance checkpoint, so be ready to walk once you arrive. 🚶Walk directly to the official ticket counter (next to the entrance gate). If you can’t find it, ask police officers in uniform, to avoid being misguided or asked for a tip 💲 after the assistance. 🏛️ Explore the site on foot – Immerse yourself in a slower paced experience of the Ancient history of Egypt, no need for a tour guide if you're observant and enjoy solo travel 💳 Tickets paid by card only – no cash accepted.
