[2024 Nazlet El-Semman Attraction] Travel Guide for Giza Necropolis (Updated Nov)

Just returned from Egypt and I want to share some heartfelt words with everyone....

👉【About Visa】👈 Egypt currently offers visa on arrival for $25 per person, cash only. Make sure to prepare in advance as they do not accept credit cards. If you really don't have cash, there are two banks next to the visa counter where you can exchange money. ▪️ 👉【About Travel Methods】👈 If it's a girl's first time visiting, it's best not to choose a self-guided tour. Although Egypt is generally safe, it's still easy to encounter scammers, and the chances of being overcharged for food, clothing, and other necessities are high. Moreover, Cairo and Luxor have many cultural and historical sites, and without a guide, you miss out on a lot of fun. It's recommended to choose a qualified travel agency for a group tour. If you feel that group tours are not free enough and the budget is higher, you can opt for a private tour. ▪️ 👉【About Sun Protection】👈 Make sure to do a good job with sun protection! Physical sun protection is best, but chemical sun protection is also necessary! Once you get there, you'll understand that the temperature is really high and the sun is really strong. If you're not careful, you'll get several shades darker (don't ask me how I know, sob sob...) ▪️ 👉【Recommended Attractions】👈 ★Cairo: Giza Pyramids, Sphinx, Egyptian Museum, Khan El Khalili Market ★Aswan: Abu Simbel Temples, Philae Temple ★Luxor: Luxor Temple & Karnak Temple, Valley of the Kings 👉【Recommended Itinerary】👈 D1 Arrive in Cairo Airport pickup, assisted by an English-speaking assistant to clear customs and get a visa on arrival Hanging Church, Saladin Citadel, Muhammad Ali Mosque, Khan El Khalili Market, Nile River night cruise D2 Cairo-Aswan Camel ride, Giza Pyramids area, Sphinx, Egyptian Museum (flight to Aswan) D3 Aswan Abu Simbel Temples, witness the thousand-year love of Ramses II and his beloved queen D4 Aswan-Luxor Philae Temple, Aswan Dam (drive to Luxor), Luxor Temple, carriage tour D5 Luxor-Hurghada Hot air balloon, Valley of the Kings, Colossi of Memnon, Karnak Temple (drive to the Red Sea) D6 Hurghada (Red Sea) Red Sea snorkeling day tour D7 Hurghada-Cairo ———— @Community Welfare @Ctrip Community Creation Center

Egypt really has a lot of stamina

An 8-day itinerary and still not enough, friends who want to go to Egypt can take this as a reference~ Let me briefly introduce our itinerary, if you are interested I can post more details later~🤓 D1✈️Arrive in Cairo D2 Cairo🚗Siwa D3 Siwa🚗Cairo✈️Hurghada D4 Red Sea outing D5 Hurghada🚗Luxor D6 Hot air balloon➕East and West Bank attractions D7 Luxor🚗Aswan D8 Aswan✈️Cairo✈️Return home On our first day in Cairo, we visited the Giza Pyramid Complex and the Egyptian Museum. Due to Ramadan, the traffic was super congested in the afternoon, so we didn't go to the Khalili market, and directly hired a car to Siwa·Qesm Siwah The second day we went to the Siwa Salt Lake🌊, it was so beautiful, and there were hot springs♨️ and the fortress from Assassin's Creed🏰. If you want to go to the desert, you can reserve an extra day, or you can first go to Alexandria City - Matrouh then to Siwa, playing all the way down, which is also a good choice😌 After the car ride back to Cairo from Siwa, we went straight to the airport to fly to Hurghada·Red Sea Governorate. We joined a day tour to El Gouna and a boat trip to Orange Bay🚢, and you can also enjoy sand surfing🏜️. We were in a hurry to get to Luxor so we didn't play~ Hurghada car ride to Luxor·Luxor Governorate takes 3 hours, we went for Chinese food, the next day we enjoyed the hot air balloon➕attractions on the West Bank of Luxor, Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut, Habu City. Surprisingly, we almost finished in half a day, and in the afternoon we went to Luxor Temple and Karnak Temple by ourselves. Luxor is also a 3-hour car ride to Aswan·Aswan Governorate, immediately went to Aswan Dam and Philae Temple, then checked into the hotel and immediately took a taxi to ride a felucca⛵️ to see the sparkling sunset over the Nile🌄 Finally, we flew directly back to Cairo from Aswan, the biggest regret is that we didn't have time to see the Temple of Ramesses II at Abu Simbel😭 So, till next time!👋

6 things you must know before going to the pyramid, a guide to avoid pitfalls

How not to be cheated when playing at the pyramid? 1. The address to buy tickets is "El Ahram Police Station", you can't go wrong with taxi apps like Uber or didi, you can always pay attention to your geographical location on Google Maps, and get off when you arrive at the ticket sales point. 2. Tickets must be purchased at the ticket office by card. 540 pounds, you can ask locals to help you buy tickets by card for 600 pounds, which is cheaper. 3. From the moment you enter the scenic area, there will be countless people watching you, waving or greeting you, no matter what they say, they basically want to cheat money from your pocket. The simplest way is to ignore them, and you won't be cheated if you don't pay attention to anyone. 4. The shooting point of the six pyramids is navigated to "Panoramic view", during which you will pass the toilet of the scenic area, which charges 10 pounds per person and will give you a small ticket. It takes a long time, a long time, to walk from the gate of the scenic area on the side of the Khufu pyramid to the shooting point of the six towers, especially when you see the pyramid for the first time, you will keep stopping to take pictures, this process probably takes more than 2 hours. 5. After taking a panoramic view, you can follow the order: Menkara-Hafla-Khufu Pyramid-Sphinx-East Gate out, to visit the Giza Pyramid Group, this process is also estimated to be two hours. 6. If you take a horse-drawn carriage from the panoramic view to the Sphinx, it is recommended to bargain for 200 pounds and no higher. After arriving at the destination, give a tip according to the situation. If there are similar staff members asking you for carriage fees on the way, ignore him, and give the money to the coachman after getting off the horse at the destination.

The Great Pyramid of Giza

I had a chance to visit the Great Pyramid of Giza early of the month. It was winter in Egypt and the weather is pleasant with sunshine. Lite jacket will do. We booked a Hotel just across the Pyramid complex with a magnificent roof top view of the Pyramids. The entrance fee as of Jan 2023 is 240EGP. We spent about half days exploring the Pyramid and the complex. It was a once in a lifetime of experience. #awesomepic

Great Pyramid of Giza

This place you should visit. It is so beautiful and fantastic. If you would like to see the big view of Pyramid, I recommend you to ride the camel outside of the pyramid because you can see the whole picture. This place suits with people who like to take picture and don’t fear with the camel😅. It is quite adventure. I recommend you to wear sun glasses because you might face with grain of sand from desert. #mytripvlog #egypt #pyramids

THE GREAT PYRAMID OF GIZA

The Pyramids of Giza in Egypt mark a glorious time in human civilization. Located in the Giza Necropolis, just outside the city of Cairo, they were built by three Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt some 4500 years ago. Regarded as an architectural marvel, the Pyramids of Giza are one of the Seven Wonders of the World. In 1979, they were also made a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The largest and most famous of all the pyramids, the Great Pyramid at Giza, was built by Snefru's son, Khufu, known also as Cheops, the later Greek form of his name. The pyramid's base covered over 13 acres and its sides rose at an angle of 51 degrees 52 minutes and were over 755 feet long. Plan your trip to this magnificent Pyramids. A must place to visit before you die people! God willing. ✨ #2023travelwish #passionpassport #tripblazers #bucketlistreboot

Ancient Wonder of the world

#celebratewithtrip In person, it’s astounding when you look at the size and symmetry of the pyramids. And to think - they made such a wondrous structure so many years ago. The reality is: standing next to the Pyramids makes me feel meek and small. There are three pyramids in the Giza Pyramid complex, built by three pharaohs, each pyramid smaller than the other. The biggest is the Great Pyramid of Giza, aka the Pyramid of Khufu, the slightly smaller Pyramid of Khafre, and the relatively modest-sized Pyramid of Menkaure. Seeing the inside of the pyramid was on the top of my bucket list in Egypt. Going inside the pyramid felt like I was traveling back in time. The excitement and anticipation were really getting to me. I felt like an explorer going into the darkness to uncover the pyramid’s secrets. You have to go through small passages and tunnels to go inside the pyramid. While you’re in these passageways, you can see the sun shining through the cracks on the inside of the pyramid. It honestly feels dreamlike.

Camel riding in Giza Pyramid complex

Going to see the pyramids might be the most cliche thing you could do while you’re in Egypt but it’s definitely worth it. The Great Pyramid of Giza is the oldest and the only remain standing of the traditional seven wonders of the world and once you set foot in the complex then you would understand why is it such a wonder and hopelessly surrender to the marvel architecture and astounding view. Take the chance to fully immerse into the dune experience by trying out on the many camel rides offered inside the complex, have a chat with the friendly locals, enjoy great food and have loads of fun while you’re at it. #passionpassport #staycation #gooutside #awesomepic #couplestrip

A dream come true - Pyramids and camel ride

This trip has always been on our bucket list. Have you ever seen something in so many text books and movies and then have that awkward feeling of realisation that you’re actually standing right in front of it? We did with the Pyramids. As one of Egypt’s iconic archaeological sites, the Giza Pyramid complex (including the Sphinx) is a must for anyone in this world. What made it even more special for us, is exploring this on a camel (first time camel riding)! Whilst in Cairo, we also visited the Egyptian museum and the Papyrus Institute. The trip also featured a trip on the Nile on a felucca (a traditional Egyptian wooden boat) and a lunch on the Nile on a floating restaurant. We traveled from Sharm El-Sheikh by bus (27 hours in total) and it was 100% worth it! #bucketlist #bucketlistadventures #cairoegypt #egypt #cairomuseum #traveltheworld #travelwithus #pyramidsofgiza #pyramids #sphinx #dreamcometrue

Great pyramid of Giza

The Great Pyramid of Giza is the largest Egyptian pyramid and tomb of Fourth Dynasty pharaoh Khufu. Built in the 26th century BC in Giza. Even though the location is not very convenient as it is a bit far from downtown, it is still totally worthy to visit. You might need a whole morning or a whole afternoon to plan both: the transportation and sightseen time for this place. It’s a place that is worthy to see both: during day and night time as the lights makes the place look stunning. It is more comfortable to visit this place in the morning or late afternoon as the weather is quite hot. This place is open everyday from 8am to 5pm. #createwithtrip #gizapyramid #egypt

Pyramids of Egypt

If you enjoy historical places then Egypt is the place to go. Thousand of years can be still seen in the intact architecture. The great pyramid of Giza is one of the seven wonders and shows the power of humans even back in the time. I recommend to enjoy the sunset there as well. #historicplaces #egypt #giza #gizapyramid

Incredible pyramids

The pyramids of Giza are jaw droppingly insane. To stand in front of these gigantic structures, is an unforgettable feeling. The pyramids and surrounding Sphinx are also monunents that one must see at least once in your life. Although the historic site is mesmerizing, the experience itself is another story. To actually get there, it's perhaps much easier using Careem or Uber; I'm not even sure public transport gets you there. Like other historical sites in Egypt, you might want to hire a guide to take you around beforehand as the sites are quite vast and plentiful. Keep in mind that there's a single ticket and then you can pay for additional access. There are many people at the gates who either pose as security or tourist police who will then try to sell you a tour or additional service. They can get aggressive; simply ignore them. The desert where the pyramids are located are actually littered with garbage and camel secretions so do be mindful of where you step. Similarly, do bring water and a hat as there is no shade or places to buy water after the entrances. All in all, it might sound overwhelming, but take everything with a grain of salt. Don't let people upset you. Simply smile and enjoy the pyramids yourself if you don't need their services. This is a wonderful opportunity and one of the best part is when you find yourself alone next to the pyramids.

Great Pyramid of Giza, Egypt

The last of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World standing, and more than 3,000 years old, the Great Pyramid rises 479 feet from a 754-feet square base. Scientists still don’t understand how the ancient Egyptians were able to move, carve and erect more than 2 million stone blocks, each weighing from 2 to 60 tons. It is one of three pyramids to tour on the Giza Plateau; get there early to purchase entry tickets or work with a local tour operator. #themeparks#nationalpark

Have you been to Egypt yet? 🇪🇬 Ever since I was a kid I dreamt of going to this place and seeing the pyramids with my own eyes. I had always thought the Great Pyramids of Gizeh were located far away in the desert, but it tuna out they are just in the outskirts of the Egyptian capital, Cairo. A very quick 30 minutes drive from the center of town and here we were. i just couldn’t believe the size of these monuments, considering it was built 4,500 years ago, when technology of any sort did not exist. Crazy to think nowadays we can walk around these iconic structures that hold so much history in them 😲🙌🏼 Absolutely worth it, it was a trip of a lifetime 😍

THE GREAT PYRAMIDS OF EGYPT! Massive bucket list crossed today,I wish my dad could’ve been with me today, he has been always so passionate about the pyramids that i was even nervous when we woke up today 😅 Wandered around for hours under the sun and took this picture i loved with @ricgm and the Sphinx 👪

Egypt blew my mind in so many ways. It was crazy to see these legendary pyramids in real life.

The Great Pyramid of Giza is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain largely intact.

The Great Pyramid of Giza (also known as the Pyramid of Khufu or the Pyramid of Cheops) is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids in the Giza pyramid complex bordering present-day Giza in Greater Cairo, Egypt. It is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain largely intact. #GiveaThanks

Pure sharing! ! ! How to travel around the world for 2 years to spend 230,000 to earn 210,000 baht From May 2017, my boyfriend and I resigned to travel, and returned in February 2019. The entire trip went to 27 countries, the total cost of adding up to 230,000, and earned 210,000 in travel! ! ! Many people say that it takes 230,000 to travel for two years? ? ? This is to save more! In fact, the two of us are very economical in terms of airfare. Many countries are connected together. It is natural to save the ticket money when sitting on the bus. The hotel has the worst living in a cowshed and has lived in a five-star hotel, but it is usually a safe and secure place to stay. After the final trip, I found that I also earned 210,000! ! ! Make money while traveling. If you want, you have a chance. Do travel from the media We started editing, retouching, shooting, not all, they are learning while playing on the road. We shared the story of the trip to the Internet, wrote a travel photo, cut the video, and made one thing exquisite, and slowly got a little fan. When there are more fans on each platform, there will be corresponding gold master dad to cooperate. Go experience or advertise! This method is hard to say, maybe you will be on fire one day. But it may have been so tepid, and the initial investment has not paid off. But the premise is: you must share, find the right style and positioning, in order to reach the approved flow of others. Submission to the magazine The nature is similar to the first one, and the small and famous magazine will come to the draft. This process is also to share more, but also to test professional skills - writing and retouching. And the rewards are not a lot. The biggest way to make money in purchasing long-distance travel is what many travelers are doing. Everyone knows how to make a purchase. It is to use the circle of friends to bring goods. It is very easy to do when it is just 15 years old. Anyone who sells foreign products is selling well. Now more and more people are purchasing and doing. The bottleneck. However, I also realized that many of them have done a good job. They bought the house on behalf of one or two years. It is very easy to enter 50,000 a month. Customized travel Play a route to the extreme, tap the local cultural resources and then bring your own group to earn commissions. This method is not bad at first, but in the end, if the source does not expand, it will not be able to end up ~ It seems cool to make money while traveling, but this is very unstable! The initial investment is too big, the risk is very high, and it is also written to tell the sweet potato who wants to go this way. I want to know what I want, what I can afford and then decide to do it! Responsible for yourself, responsible for family, responsible for society~

###### Actually about the pyramid, I believe that almost everyone keeps fantasizing about it, and I was no exception. But a group of people live by the pyramids, and their survival is closely related to local tourism. Sometimes we have to learn to cross the reality before us and jump back to that mysterious fantasy. even the lens should be skipped together. The Giza Pyramid is located in the southwestern suburbs of Cairo. It is the most famous pyramid area in Egypt and one of the seven wonders of the world. Tips: * The opening hours of the scenic spot are until 16:00, so don't go too late. * When you enter the gate, you will encounter various scams. If you pretend that the staff will look at your ticket, then you will be asked for additional fees. If you pretend to be a police officer, you must be careful. * Don't let the locals take pictures for you, otherwise the phone will be redeemed with money. * It is best not to open the wallet in front of the locals to avoid unnecessary trouble. * Take special care when riding a camel. Don't ride if you don't ride. Be careful to identify people who trust. In fact, I can especially understand that people who want to survive here are not problematic if they are trading in normal business.

The 10 pyramids of Giza, Egypt, are one of the seven great wonders of ancient times. They stood on the desert on both sides of the Nile River and were built in Giza, not far from the capital, Menphis (80km southwest of Cairo). The highest architectural achievement in ancient Egypt. The pyramid is so tall that it is easy to believe that they are ancient legends built by gods or giants. The most preserved lion face figure today, as LP said, there are many legends and superstitions, and the mystery of riding a forgotten architectural purpose is almost as fascinating as its shape. The cat, known as the "father of terror" in Arabic, is called the lion face in ancient Greek because it resembles a mysterious monster with wings. The monster has a woman's head, the body of the lion, and often likes riddles. Give people a guess, kill it if you can't guess it. The Pharaoh's Sun Boats at the 5 pits near the Pyramid of Khufu were used to transport the pharaoh's mummies through the Nile to the Valley of the Valley, where they were dumped to the dam and placed in the tomb. 3 The largest and best preserved pyramids were made by the three emperors of the fourth dynasty, Khufu, Khafra and Menkaura, in 2600 BC - 2500 BC Built. The pyramid of Khufu is 146.6m high and the base is 230.35m long. The pyramid of Haifula is 143.5m high and the base is 215.25m long. The pyramid of Menkaura is 66.4m high and the base is 108.04m long.

In the middle of the third millennium BC, about 2631 BC to 2498 BC. In Giza, in the Nile Delta, three great pyramids were created, consisting of the three emperors of the fourth dynasty, Khufu, Khafra, and Menkaura, in 2600 BC. Built in 2500 BC. It is the most mature representative of the ancient Egyptian pyramids, which is the big pyramid we now often say. In the suburbs of today's Cairo, it is mainly composed of the Great Pyramid (also known as Khufu), Khafra, and the Menkaura Pyramid ( Menkaura) and the Great Sphinx. There are also many Mastaba and small pyramids around.

The wisdom and creativity of the ancient people are awesome, Petra is like this, and so is the pyramid. The Egyptian Pyramid is one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. It is said to be the tomb of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs, but archaeologists have never found the pummy of the Pharaoh in the pyramid. The base of the mausoleum is square, and the four sides are four. The same triangle, the silhouette is similar to the "golden" character of Chinese characters, so the Chinese is called the pyramid. The Egyptian pyramid is one of the largest buildings to date, but its construction is not documented. There are several assumptions in later generations. One is to use a huge lever, one end is tied with a rope with a rope, the other end is manually hoisted by the stone, and then the stone is gradually piled up; another guess is that the soil is used to form a slope and use wood. The roller pulls the stone up and the mound is spiraled around the pyramid. No matter what the way, with the technology at the time, manpower and wisdom are the biggest shock. Each of them is a small body with shoulders carrying the almost unbearable weight of human beings. How do they move the giant mountains bit by bit, how to unite and cooperate to turn the blueprint into reality. Standing at the foot of the pyramid, stroking the weather-covered cultural relics, the huge pyramids buried human beings. This kind of power that shocks the soul is only a worship of Egyptian civilization.

Regarding the pyramid, it seems that there is no need to repeat it. After all, everyone has heard too much about this group of great historical sites. When the vehicle has not yet entered the scenic area, the pyramid seen from the window is enough to shock people. When I went to the landmark buildings of the Eiffel Tower and the Taj Mahal, I felt that I had a lot more than the expected "pocket", and the pyramid was the first landmark that was shocked by its scale after seeing it. Regarding the pyramid, everyone's expectations are different, some people are willing to line up into the tower, and we just want to quietly enjoy its beauty on the side, so we only choose 120EGP scenic tickets. Before going to the various "cheats" around the pyramid, I was prepared, but I didn't expect it to be almost in the middle. After the security check, someone asked you "ticket?", ignoring the departure, even if the tickets were not given to him, the companion was taken away, but it was better to reflect it in time to return the ticket with roar. As for other camel rides or whatever, we are also far away. But I have to say that the pyramid scenic area is still very large, especially if you want to take pictures of the three pyramids in the same frame, it is not easy. The big selling point of riding a camel can also bring you to the best viewing point. But in order to be afraid of being deceived (mainly poor), we chose to walk to the so-called "best angle of view", but looked at it very far away, and increased the discomfort of this walk in the sand without any shelter. Feeling, but fortunately, I finally saw the same frame and saved a ride.

Egypt is great, but I won't go again. Some suggestions:

Egypt is one of the four ancient civilizations in the world, with a history of thousands of years. Its unique and colorful religious culture has had a profound impact on global culture.
