Can you go inside the Pyramid of Cheops and how much does it cost?

Yes, you can go inside the Pyramid of Cheops, but it is a paid option that is not included in the standard tour price. The entrance ticket costs 20 US dollars (about 1000 Egyptian pounds). The Pyramid of Mycerinus is also open for visits, with an entrance fee of 10 dollars.

But is it worth it? Tourists' opinions vary. Here's what you need to know:

• Empty inside: There are no treasures, sarcophagi, or paintings inside the Pyramid of Cheops. You will only see long narrow corridors and an empty chamber.
• Very cramped and stuffy: It is hot, humid, and has little air inside. People with claustrophobia or breathing problems will find it very difficult.
• Queues: You often have to stand in line to get inside, which eats up precious time that is already scarce.
• Quick visit: You will have literally 5-10 minutes for the entire inspection. The guide will hurry you because you need to stick to the schedule.

Our advice: if you have dreamed of being inside an ancient wonder of the world since childhood, go for it. If you are going for impressions and beautiful photos, it is better to spend 20 dollars on something else.
