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.

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.

Everything worked perfectly. At first, I was worried there might be a problem because the listed office address where the ticket was supposed to be redeemed was inaccessible due to construction work. But I just walked through the main gate, scanned the ticket I had saved on my phone at the entrance, and entered the Giza complex without any trouble and without having to wait in line. It was great.

Admission to the Giza complex was completely straightforward. The free shuttle buses arrived quickly. You could also walk there. The site could do with a little more maintenance, but the experience of seeing the pyramids and the Sphinx is unique. The Pyramid of Cheops is amazing, but the way inside, where you have to bend down and the air is poor, is not easy. But it's a must-see. All in all, 4 out of 5 stars.

The complex is very beautiful, but you have to watch out where you go since there are no clear instructions where you can and can't go... for example to go to viewpoint with all 9 pyramids you have to take camel or horse or donkey... hike is not allowed! But you can always give a guard 5$ and he will take you to different places which are not accessible for all others

A wonderful experience at the Giza site. An incredible place steeped in history. There was no line when we arrived. E-tickets allow you to enter directly by scanning them. Don't let yourself be monopolized by fake guides and vendors of all kinds on site. A firm "NO" is enough.

Skip the long ticketing lines and enter the Giza Complex without waiting.

See the exteriors of all three main pyramids, the Great Pyramid (Khufu), Khafre, and Menkaure, along with the Great Sphinx and Valley Temple.

Explore the vast Giza Complex at your own pace with flexible, self-guided access.

Upgrade your ticket to step inside two of Giza’s three main pyramids, the Great Pyramid (Khufu) and the Menkaure Pyramid, for a rare inside-the-pyramids experience.

You can also add round-trip hotel transfers from Cairo or Giza, or upgrade to an English-guided group tour led by an expert local guide.

Efficient pickup and arrival at the site, and a pleasant driver; the return trip was just as smooth... nothing to complain about!!!! The Giza site is breathtaking—you can really understand why Napoleon was so awestruck when he saw the pyramids!!!

We hired a driver to do the inside the Great Pyramid at Giza experience. The driver was prompt, friendly and flexible with our drop off time. We had enough time to see everything we wanted and still able to leave earlier than the pre-designated time to return to our hotel. Highly recommend.
