History
The Great Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops) is the largest of the three, built around 2560 BCE as a royal tomb and aligned precisely to cardinal points.
Conservation
Heavy visitation stresses the plateau’s fragile stones; visitors should follow paths, avoid touching masonry, and support licensed guides to minimize impact.
Reserve your spot on the Giza pyramids with professional photography today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Shoot at golden hour
Schedule sunrise or late afternoon to avoid harsh midday light and capture long shadows that define the pyramids’ faces.
Hydrate and protect from the sun
Bring at least 1–2 liters of water, sunscreen and a wide-brim hat—the plateau gives no shade.
Respect restricted areas
Do not climb on stones or cross ropes; many surfaces are fragile and protected by site regulations.
Bring spare batteries/storage
High-resolution photos and video drain batteries and cards quickly—carry backups to avoid missed shots.
DSLR or mirrorless camera (or smartphone with wide lens)
A capable camera and a wide-angle lens will capture both detail and the sweeping plateau views.
Spare batteries and memory cards
Power and storage backups prevent lost shots during peak lighting windows.
Sun protection (hat, sunscreen, sunglasses)
The exposed plateau intensifies UV—protect skin and eyes for comfort and better shooting.

Comfortable closed-toe walking shoes
