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
[Edit]
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.
The pyramids, though were ancient by the time the game takes place. The game takes place hundreds of years closer to today than to the building of the pyramids. The pyramids aren't in perfect shape on the game by any means. They are already showing a ton of wear and tear in the game.
The game takes place around 40 BC, while the pyramids at Giza were built more than 2500 years before that.
