Arriving in Giza
Giza is where most first-time visitors sleep, because waking up to the plateau from a rooftop is the reason they came. The drive from Cairo Airport crosses the whole city, which is why it is far more sensitive to departure time than distance.
Our drivers take the ring road when the centre is blocked and know the narrow streets of Nazlet El-Semman that taxis often refuse at night. The price is fixed regardless of how long the traffic takes.
