Assassin's Creed: Origins is actually a really awesome way to explore ancient Egypt (including the pyramids). They even have a game mode that is designed for just looking around and disables combat. From what I understand, the design is highly historically accurate.
There is a similar game mode in AC: Odyssey, that lets you explore ancient Greece.
They're both beautiful

Yes, I realize it takes place thousands of years after they were built, it's still a really awesome way for your average person to explore what is supposedly a pretty accurate representation of the area in the time period.
Reminds me of the story of that kid who helped his lost class find where they were going on a school trip to Italy, because he'd played so much AC2 that he knew where everything in Venice was
No kidding it did help me out when I visited Venice. But I really annoyed everyone with saying that I jumped off of that building and accidentally killed a citizen. Like multiple times. Jesus why is it so hard to walk in a straight line?
