The Private Guide and Photographer

You’ll be accompanied by a professional tour leader and photographer, who uses a high-quality camera to ensure every shot is sharp and well-composed. One reviewer noted, “Very good photographer and very kind,” highlighting the professionalism and friendliness of the staff. The guide will help you navigate the sites, share interesting facts, and suggest the best moments to snap photos, all while making the experience engaging and relaxed.

Visiting the Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren, and Mykerinus

The tour kicks off with visits to the three main pyramids of Giza, each with its own story. The Great Pyramid of Cheops (also known as Khufu) is the star attraction—massive, awe-inspiring, and full of stories of ancient engineering. Following that, you’ll see the Pyramid of Chephren, which still retains some of its original casing stones and offers impressive photo opportunities with the Sphinx in the background.

The Mykerinus pyramid adds balance to the group, with its smaller, yet still impressive stature. Your guide will help you get close-up shots, showing the intricate details and grandeur of these ancient structures.

The Valley Temple and the Great Sphinx

Next, you’ll visit the Valley Temple of Chephren, a quieter site where you can capture the less-frequented angles that make for stunning photos. The temple’s limestone blocks and the nearby Sphinx are quintessential symbols of Egypt, and your photographer will help you frame these iconic photos perfectly.

The Great Sphinx is the pièce de résistance—an almost surreal encounter to photograph, especially with a skilled photographer who can make sure you get the angles that highlight its mysterious smile and majestic size. One reviewer mentioned, “very good photographer and very kind,” implying you’ll be well looked after.
