from $85

A traveler asked where to find cheap tours and the average cost of a pyramids trip from Sharm El Sheikh — prices depend on the tour operator and package inclusions.

Currently small-group tours cost around $100. A separate bus tour that includes the new museum runs about $80.

small group ~$100, new museum ~$80

A full package for $85 includes the pyramids plateau, the new museum, lunch, and shopping stops. The same package with the old museum costs $47.

$85 (new museum) / $47 (old museum)

Some tour agencies charge $72 for a Cairo and pyramids tour including the new museum, but require an extra $48 per person for pyramid plateau access. Other agencies charge just $45 with plateau access included, but the museum add-on fee seems suspiciously low — raising questions about which price is actually accurate.
