Before you go
Buy timed tickets online; mornings on weekdays are quietest.
Inside
Start with the Grand Staircase, then the Tutankhamun galleries.
After
The pyramids are a ten-minute taxi away — combine both in one day.
When is the best time to visit Cairo?
Uber works well; tip in small notes; Fridays are quiet in the morning.
