Giza Pyramids during golden sunset light

Opening & Daily Rhythm

  • Mornings are cooler and clearer; start with interiors.
  • Late afternoons bring warm side light—great for pyramid contours and Sphinx portraits.

Seasonal Snapshot

Season Temperatures Crowds Notes
Winter (Dec–Feb) Mild–cool Moderate (holidays peak) Crisp air for long views
Spring (Mar–May) Warming Rising Watch for occasional dusty winds
Summer (Jun–Aug) Hot High Prioritize early/late slots, hydrate
Autumn (Sep–Nov) Cooling Moderate Warm sunset hues, pleasant temps

Light for Photography

  • Morning: clean light, fewer silhouettes; long shadows from east.
  • Afternoon: warmer tones, strong shape modeling; west light across faces.
  • Blue hour: skyline silhouettes from plateau edges.

Clothing & Comfort

  • Breathable long sleeves, hat, sunglasses, SPF 50, sturdy shoes.
  • Bring cash for water; card acceptance varies around the plateau.

Bottom Line

If you can choose, aim for a cool-season weekday morning or a shoulder-season late afternoon. Split heavy walking between these two windows when possible.
