A bus can be useful for a local journey that the Metro does not cover directly. Large public buses and smaller minibuses work differently, so identify the vehicle's destination before boarding. For a trip toward the Giza pyramids, confirm that it reaches the plateau entrance rather than ending elsewhere in the broad Haram district.
Useful to know
Ask the driver or another passenger to confirm your destination and where to get off.
For the pyramids, clarify the exact drop-off point; Haram names a wider district.
Check the current route and last service before relying on a bus late in the day.
