It was not worth the climb or cost to enter the Large Pyramid tomb. It's nothing but an empty small stone room with no artistic value of any sort. The climb up in a 3' high tunnel, straight up in a hot smoldering tunnel on rungs. Must have bumped my head a dozen times on the rock ceiling since you're crouched so low in most areas climbing up. Nothing pleasant about it. Just visit the outside pyramids. All the small groups of pyramids are included with the basic entry ticket, which they won't tell you. Don't let these guys hanging out outside escort you in since they are just asking for money. They really won't tell you anything of importance, just waste your time, believe me. Been there, done it. My sufferage is your gain. Wish someone had told me the truth. The camel ride was the best part overall. Seeing the pyramids was great too, from the outside.
Take a professional tour guide with lisence better than hourse carriage and cheaper. Because offer the same price like the tour guide at the beginning and then they start to ask for extra expenses and tips which will turn into a double and triple price. Try to pay at the end of your tour not in the beginning to avoid the unexpected expenses.
This was a spectacular experience! Its such a spiritual ordeal to walk in a place built 3100 years ago, and it sill stands. Its like going back in time. The wall art & scribes & hieroglyphics was amazing. Egypt was the first civilization of many things and the first to invent color as you see in the wall art is so beautiful & amazing. I'm so happy I got to view scribes, and archeology of the Pyramids & ruins. Amazing!
There will be a lot of hagglers, but remember they are just trying to make a living. Just say no and walk away. They will never hurt or harm you in any way. Just keep saying no, and never let them take your picture. They will ask for a tip. Don’t let this ruin your vacation, just always keep in mind that this is a third world country, and unfortunately, this is how they make a living. Also, be sure to negotiate every sale. They will always start at a price 75% more than what the product or service is worth.
Just ignore any Egyptions when they ask you for camel, horse or whatever riding. They will rip you off badly. If they try to take you great point for a photo, dont listen to them. They will ask you money. Just don’t listen to them. They are after your money. Just search on the internet for great photo point and you walk there on your own. If you do your homework you will have great time and photos there. Trust me, DON’T listen to them.
Local people are going to try to hassle you. Just be very clear with a "no" if you don't want something and don't accept any "free" staff or favors. They don't exist ☺ You can smuggle camera in Cofu pyramid in form of mobile phone just not professional camera.
“near by place to eat and shops were there and its closer to the Giza pyramids. if you want to stay closer to the airport this is not the place”
“The staff was very friendly and the location was perfect for seeing historical sites downtown. Easy to catch a cab for other sites as well. Staff organized a tour of Saqqara and Giza pyramids.”
“sightseeing is pretty good! Very close to the Giza Pyramids. The surrounding is very peaceful and beautiful House keeping and hotel staff are very friendly”
“Recently renovated cosy guesthouse that is perfectly located right in front of the Giza Pyramids and in easy walking distance to the more quiet and much better Sphinx entrance gate. The rooftop-terrace offers probably the best views of the pyramids that you can find to enjoy the sunset and even the Sound & Light show (for free). The friendly stuff treated us like pharaos and made everything to make us feel at home. Highly recommended for independent (budget) travellers!”
“-Very tasty welcome drink (several times !!) -Walking distance to Giza pyramids -Great pyramids view from roof-top bar/restaurant -Small shop close to the hotel -Owner and male receptionist were very kind and helpful”
