Negotiate the horse carriage prices to lesser than half before getting on the horse. And all the pyramids in the area are walkable. As the 'guides'to cut the bullshit when they say u can't walk.

Just say "no thank you no". To all the camel and horse scammers. They may take pictures and say is free or also free ride saying "pay what makes you happy" be careful. But nothing to worry about.

No, Napoleon Bonaparte didn't shoot off his nose, but yes the head looks smaller than the body so maybe there was originally a larger head that was re-carved into what we see today?

It is really amazing to see. My advice to you is to go there at winter not summer due to the scorching sun and sunburns many will try to sell you stuff and make you ride for money.Enjoy.

The side and front angle looks amazing. Great place for photography but be aware of pick pockets and gift sellers who continues to pester you non stop

Go on the 30 minute camel ride for the best view of all of the pyramids. The panorama views are breathtaking and even better on a camel.
