The travel guides advise you not to interact with the locals at the attractions. If you do not, you will miss out on so much. We let one “site watchman” reel us in at the Great Pyramid. We had a great time.
I got to climb down into one of the Queen’s Pyramids and see the burial chamber. I was the only one there. It was very cool. We were shown the excavation area where the housing for the Pyramid workers was. The guide then proceeded to take about 60 pictures of us in a variety of funny poses. We spent about 45 minutes with this person. When we were done, out came the hand. Prices for access are higher at the Great Pyramid than in Luxor or Aswan but it was still very much worth it. We all walked away laughing and smiling.
