TL;DR
Local travel agencies in town sell the Cairo excursion (including the Grand Egyptian Museum) for $85-100, while hotel guides and online booking sites charge $120+.
Not all online travel agency websites are equally reliable - non-hotel, non-guide booking sites tend to have standard pricing, but it's worth checking the agency's reputation separately.
Booking through hotel guides or some online services, the Cairo excursion costs $120+ - travelers reported not finding it cheaper that way.
It's better to book the Cairo land excursion (including the new Grand Egyptian Museum) through local travel agencies in town - prices there run around $85-100, cheaper than through hotel guides.
Some travelers look for local (non-tourist-oriented) booking sites hoping to find lower prices than standard online tour packages.
