N.B :
N.B:
Some places are not included in the tour price ( the optional tours ), because the Egyptian government want to limit the tourists number going in,as one of the ways to save the monuments longer, but in case you want it to be included, we add only its ticket price
But for Cheops pyramid we can not guarantee that tourists can go inside, except during the tour because the Egyptian government give permission for very limited number of tourists to go inside Cheops pyramid, only 300 tourists per day.
Other reason , is that not all the tourists has the same time to spend in Cairo tour, some tourist they have enough time to go everywhere in the same area & others has limited time, so it is better for the tourist himself not to add all the extra tickets to the tour price, then may be he decide not to go or for time or for personal things such as suffering Claustrophobia from the closed places, or heart diseases that prevent from going inside the pyramids.
The not included places in our Cairo & Giza day tours are :
- Going inside Cheops pyramid ( 100 Egyptian pound )
- Going inside Chefren pyramid ( 30 Egyptian pounds )
- The solar boat museum ( 50 Egyptian pounds )
- The mummies room in the Egyptian museum ( 100 Egyptian pounds )
