Cairo: Gezira Travel Tips
Cairo: Gezira travel tips courtesy of GeckoGo
  • Gizah, or Giza or however you want to spell it is one of the oldest tourist destinations in the world. Home of the Great Pyramids of Giza. When I visited, I went in the late afternoon (mostly because we couldn't get directions...no one seemed to know where the pyramids were and how to get to them) …  Iain T.
  • Things to see in Giza - The Great Pyramids Sphinx Best time to visit - sunrise, sunset or evening when it's not so hot  Russell J.
  • Zeker in de pyramide van Chepos gaan! Overweldigend!!!! zo kolossaal!!! Ik krijg er nog 'kiekenvlees' van als ik eraan denk!  Sandra D.
