Go inside in you’re not claustrophobic - The pyramids were amazing and so was our guide. We rode a camel in the BACK OF THE PYRAMIDS to get a better view. Strongly recommend. The boy with the camels was kind of rude and tried to haggle his tip to an ridiculous amount. Watch out for that. They think if they take your photo they deserve $20. It’s be funny if it wasn’t so absurd.

Walk down of history is the most authentic way - Best way to experience the Giza pyramids: 1) Reach the entrance of the Giza Pyramids ticket counter and buy the relevant tickets. Do not negotiate with any guide / tour operator before buying the tickets. 2) Enter the premises and there are dime a dozen guides. Negotiate well for an all inclusive package i.e. camel ride, entrance to all pyramids and his gratifications / tip. Else at every step there are venue caretakers who come and ask for gratitude . 3) Usually it's 3-4 hour tour but make the most of it by taking your time as the venue is open only til 4pm. Request the guide to take you to Khofu, Sphinx and even other historic places within the premises 4) at the end, all guides take the tourist to pre-selected shops for perfume and papyrus painting. Bargain straight 70-80% as the prices are high and include the guides commission. Make sure to start the tour by 9:30-10 am to get maximum time with the Pyramids.

Ride with camels - We went in Giza and took a camel for a ride! It very beautiful BUT they are thiefs. They have a label that says 100 egypt pounds per person and they didnt leave ut to go down from the camel until we pay them. And finally they took us 900 egypt pounds. Do not say them that you have dollars or euros. They will not leave you until you give them all the money you have. I am pregnant and they just ignored me and they askes for even more money. It is better to go walking instead to trust those thiefs.
