Pictures look different... They are ok but in the middle of a city and there are soooo many egyptians trying to sell you useless things. I was looking forward for the Sphynx. I was disappointed. Nice but ou can see it only from 'bout 100 meters. And about going inside... $18 for climbing awful stairs bent over into a tiny... More

I was in awe of what was built...just the sheer size. But it would have been a truly wonderful experience if you are not being harriaed by the street sellers all the time while you are their. I did not buy anything from them...and you don't either...it only encourages to be agressive in getting your money.

I took a taxi to the pyramids. On the final approach road there... More

Must see, one of the wonders of the world, for sure on everybody’s “bucket list”. Impressive huge limestone blocks construction of 144 m high, standing there for thousands of years. Eight other pyramids are in the complex, together with the Sphinx. Don’t miss mortuary ship fully restored, separately exposed in the complex. You may want to hire a camel or... More

Finally, the Great Pyramids! It's truly amazing that these majestic structures have survived for so long. With tourism down 85%, the souvenir hawkers have become very aggressive and their persistence somewhat diminished the excitement. We entered the Pyramid of Menkaure, the smallest of the three pyramids of Giza; the long passage was stiflingly hot and not for those who may... More
