For an unforgettable photo session at the Pyramids of Giza, here are some top spots and tips for capturing the best angles and atmosphere:
1. Panoramic Viewpoint•Located on a small hill on the Giza Plateau, this spot offers a wide-angle view of the three main pyramids together.
•Great for sunrise or sunset photos, which give a warm glow to the pyramids and add depth to your images.
2. Near the Great Sphinx
•The Sphinx, with the pyramids in the background, creates a powerful and iconic composition.
•Capture a side profile or a head-on shot to include both the Sphinx and the Great Pyramid behind it. 3. Close-Up of the Great Pyramid
•Standing at the base of the Great Pyramid gives a sense of scale and lets you show the massive limestone blocks up close.
•Use a low angle to make the pyramid look even more impressive, or take photos as you climb (where allowed) for a unique perspective.

4. Between the Pyramid of Khufu and Pyramid of Khafre
•This spot lets you photograph the two largest pyramids side by side, often with fewer crowds.
•It’s great for playing with perspective: stand farther back to capture their scale or move closer for more intimate shots.
5. Camel Ride Photos
•Take photos while riding a camel, with the pyramids in the background. This adds an authentic Egyptian touch to your pictures.
•Arrange a shot where you’re facing away from the camera, gazing at the pyramids for a timeless, contemplative look.
6. Golden Hour (Sunrise or Sunset)
•The early morning or late afternoon provides the best lighting, casting a warm, golden glow on the pyramids and Sphinx.
•The sunset behind the pyramids also creates a magical silhouette effect… Plan for a few different spots, as each pyramid and viewpoint provides unique photo opportunities that will make your session memorable.
