If you should ever take a trip to Egypt, a visit of the Giza Pyramids is an absolute must. Of course, before hand you will need to prepare yourself for a visit onto the edge of the desert, I can only suggest that exorbitant amounts of sun screen will suffice, along with all the usual summer kit (Sun glasses, sun hats, shorts and t-shirt).
As there are limited facilities within a close range of the Pyramids - and by that, I mean non - be sure to buy and carry with you plenty of water, and not to forget to use the toilets you should find on your coach.
The Egyptians also recognise this as a big tourist area, and are seen trying to sell camel rides to tourist, or other pieces of pointless junk that will break within five minutes. Ignore them, even if they pester you - if you give one anything, the rest will hound you, and make your trip no where near as fun.

When at the Pyramids, be sure to take a visit inside one of them, that is, if you like small, dark, enclosed spaces, with too many people (not for claustrophobics!!)
Remember to have a good time, and get a member of your family, or someone from your tour group to take a picture for you, they make the best souvenirs.

Sorry for the low rating, but you have hardly said anything about the pyramids themselves.
