Why we pay the tips at the pyramids

The hassle at Giza is real. Our fix is simple: we pay everyone before you arrive.

Every visitor to Giza has the same story: the man who opens a tomb door and wants money, the one who takes your photo and wants money, the camel that costs one price to get on and another to get off.

We grew up here. We know every guard and every camel owner by name, and on our tours they are paid by us, in advance, at a fair rate. The price you see on this site includes all of it. So when someone approaches you, you can smile, say "with Rami", and keep walking.

It costs us a little more. It is also the reason our guests remember the pyramids and not the arguing.
