If you’re not staying near Giza like me, here’s a great photo spot recommendation! Even package tours make a stop here, so let me share this spot with you.

When you search for "Giza Pyramid Rooftop," the most famous place is Rooftop 7000. But... I don’t recommend it at all!

First of all, if you’re not a guest at the hotel, you have to pay an entrance fee of 900 EGP (on top of food and drinks). Nope, not worth it. So I just moved to another rooftop nearby.

📍11 Sphinx street, Abou El hole Street, Nazlet El-Semman, Pyramids, Giza Governorate

1️⃣ A 26% Charge is Automatically Added

  • 14% tax + 12% service charge = 26% extra on your bill

  • Annoying, but this applies to most restaurants around the Giza Pyramids.

  • I checked out a few places, and this one had the best view despite the extra charges.

2️⃣ You Can Order Just a Drink & Take Photos

  • No need to order a full meal—just grab the cheapest drink and enjoy the view!

  • Recommended for the view, but not for dining.

  • The drinks were actually decent, and I highly recommend the fresh mango smoothie!

3️⃣ Water is Served but Not Free

  • They automatically serve water, but if you drink it, you have to pay for it.

Best Time to Visit? 4:30 - 5:00 PM. There was an Indian couple at the table next to us with a local guide. The guide told them, "Just wait a bit, and you’ll see an amazing view." So we decided to wait too!

One of the staff members even took a nice photo for us! I was worried they might ask for a tip, but they were really friendly and didn’t expect anything
