The entrance fee for foreigners to the Giza Plateau, which provides access to the site of the pyramids and the Sphinx, is 700 EGP per adult and 350 EGP per student with valid identification[5][6]. Children under 6 enter free[7].
Entry into the interiors of the pyramids requires separate tickets, and prices vary depending on the pyramid:
- Great Pyramid (Khufu): 1500 EGP per adult, 750 EGP per student (from January 1, 2025) [1][6]
- Pyramid of Menkaure: 280 EGP per adult, 140 EGP per student[5][6]
Students receive a 50% discount with valid student ID[7]. Tickets can be purchased at the site or online; early booking is recommended during high season as interior pyramid tickets are limited daily[6].
Additional charges apply for special experiences such as the Solar Boat Museum or the Sound and Light Show. Mobile phone photography is generally allowed for free, but photography inside the pyramids may incur an extra fee[2][7].
