I
don't doubt that some of these guys aren't legitimate, but
there's also some crooks up there on the Giza plateau taking
advantage when the tourist police aren't looking. My advice, ask
your guide to arrange a camel jaunt should you feel the need, or
at least wait and see some other tourists coming back from their
own happy trip.
Someone I met was asked for extra
charges not previously mentioned at the farthest extremity of
the camel ride when a long walk back in the full sun was
sufficiently unpleasant to make them pay up the additional
crooked charge.
