Rent your camel just outside the entrance to the Giza Plateau. Alternatively, you can pick up a camel behind the Sphinx once you're inside the Plateau.
Expect to pay about 25 Egyptian pounds (US$4.40) per person plus tip for a camel. It's customary to pay after you return with the camel.
Check out the condition of the camels before you rent one. Sadly, it's normal for the camels to appear undernourished, but they should not have sores or look beaten. Also, the stables in which they are kept should appear clean. If you're not satisfied, move on to the next spot.
Tip your guide between 5 and 10 pounds (US90 cents to US$1.75). The only people who get out of tipping are those who ride on their own camels.
