💡 Practical tips
🏨 Where to stay
Zamalek (calm, leafy island) or Downtown to be central; Giza only for dawn pyramids.
💶 Budget
Very affordable: local meals 1–4 €, taxi/ride-hailing rides a few euros.
🚕 Getting around
Ride-hailing (Uber/Careem) to skip all haggling; the metro works well and has women-only cars.
🤝 Tipping
Baksheesh is cultural: keep small change for keepers, guides and small services.
👩 Solo women
Prefer ride-hailing at night and covering clothing; verbal harassment exists, stay in busy areas.
🌡 When to come
October to April. Summer is crushing on open-air sites.
