What locals warn about here
Someone dressed like staff offers to show you a "secret" spot or take your photo, then asks insistently for money — sometimes holding your phone until you pay.
Do not hand over your phone. Official guides carry a Ministry of Tourism licence and you can ask to see it.
The meter is "broken", or the fare changes when you arrive.
Use Uber or Careem — the app shows the price before you confirm, which ends the argument before it starts.
Someone appears to "help" — opening a door, pointing at something you already found, handing you paper in a bathroom — then asks for money.
Small change for a real service is normal and kind. For an unasked-for one, a friendly "la shokran" and keep moving is completely acceptable.
Local knowledge, not sourced facts — no publisher stands behind these.
Opening hours and ticket prices change; check at the gate or the official site. TUT doesn’t guess them — every price above carries its source and date.
