The information about what exactly I am buying is a bit underestimated. The information what everything is on the site and what everything I can visit within the ticket is not crystal clear. Regarding Headout, I would just say you are ok, reselling a ticket. But what would make you really special? If you would give me an info about the locals, their tricks and how they are trying to constantly get some money from me. Even the "official" guides they sold me something really cheap like a trip maybe five times more expensive! It is my fault I do not have the information, but Headout would be really special to make a section where they give the person useful advices what to avoid, how much things costs - like for example a horse ride or a camel, etc.

Seeing the pyramids and learning about a history that goes back 4,000 years is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and this is definitely the best way to do it. Everything was perfect, and I highly recommend having a guide to fully live and understand the experience. One important note: the inside of the pyramids is very narrow. You walk in two lines, almost crouching, on a sloped passage, with limited air circulation (and there can also be a strong smell of sweat). So if you suffer from claustrophobia or are afraid of enclosed spaces, I would not recommend going inside.

With the ticket, I was able to enter the site directly - with the help of my hotel. I visited the Cheops Pyramid intensively, the Chefren quickly and the Sphinx could be seen in a short time anyway. The very poor signposting at the entrance to the interior of the Cheops Pyramid was not good. I had booked at very short notice and wifi doesn't work there at all. As I had not downloaded the voucher, I was unfortunately not allowed inside the pyramid.

    We used the main entrance. Free shuttle buses run around the grounds. We spent about 5 hours there. Simply fantastic.

    Everything worked perfectly. Same price as on site. But without having to wait in line for a long time. A bit of a line, but reasonable. Excellent.
