Getting to Giza – Transport and Gates

Options at a Glance

• Metro + bus/taxi (budget; may require short final hop)
• Rideshare (Uber/Careem) direct to gate
• Private transfer/guide (door-to-door, pricier but easy)

Gate Strategy

• Main/Visitor gate: convenient for ticketing and starting clockwise.
• Sphinx gate: better if your first priority is Sphinx photography.

Looping the Plateau

Plan a clockwise loop: Khufu east → Khafre flank → Menkaure → panorama point → Sphinx exit.

Bottom Line

Choose comfort vs budget honestly. If you value time and context, a vetted guide/driver can be worth the premium.
