    The best way to get around in Cairo is by a bus tour. Don't even think of driving on your own. The traffic is VERY chaotic!!!

    Buses are everywhere in Cairo, from large to small, they are always full.

    You can get anywhere in the city, and the bus station staff (and locals) are very helpful in telling you which bus to get (even if they are not always correct).

    Main buses of note:

    Pyramids (355, 357, 900)

    Airport (346, 400, 27)

    You may need to learn your arabic numerals, as some bus services use them instead of numbers that we know.
    The cost is a few pence 25 -50 pc

    Air conditioned buses run some routes at the whopping cost of 2 EP (About 20p)

    Don't go by tourist bus to the Pyramids. It costs about $2 instead of about a quarter by local bus form the bus station under the bridge near Egyptian Museum

    If you travel outside of Cairo, sometimes the soldiers with nothing to do will "escort" westerners ( especially Americans ) even in the north where violence against foreigners is rare.

    In addition to plentiful taxes, I saw at least three other ways to travel around Cairo. We only used taxis when we weren't walking so I can't give any information on them.

    They ranged in size from this minibus in the picture up to a full-size city bus.

  • Its another location in the central of Giza,near the Pyramids.

    you can also go to everywhere in Cairo if you are there,but almost Giza station is better if you are taking super jet bus and going to Alexandria,its more near to the desert road.!
