Is Giza safe for solo female travelers?

Giza is a fascinating destination with its remarkable pyramids and ancient history. However, as a solo female traveler, you should be prepared for frequent attention, mostly in the form of sales tactics or harmless compliments, yet they could be overwhelming at times. It is very important to dress conservatively respecting the local customs. Always choose reliable and safe transportation, preferably arranged by your hotel. Be wary of scams around tourist points. Though petty crimes are not habitual, it may occur. A guided tour might be a safer option if you are visiting for the first time.

I would honestly say that It is safe but not completely because there is still catcalling and harassment that happens during the day! Even if it is not all the time but it happens to many women even to foreigners.

It's safe enough, Giza is part of Egypt's Capital. I feel safe enough to go out on my own, however just like most girls in every country I still don't feel a 100% safe all of the time, but that's not about Egypt specifically it's a worldwide struggle
