Unfortunately, ticket scams and unofficial guides are common around Giza. Booking online ensures you're dealing with verified providers and official ticketing.
Why book tickets online?

Guided by verified Egyptologists: Choose expert-led tours with licensed Egyptologists who bring real depth and insight to your visit, much more than a casual walk-through.
Secure payment, no surprises: Pay in your local currency, receive instant confirmation, and avoid unexpected charges or last-minute price hikes at the gate.
Guaranteed entry on your preferred date: Giza gets crowded, especially during holiday seasons. Booking ahead locks in your preferred date and time without the stress of sold-out slots.
