Entry Fees

Entry Fees for Monuments, Temples, Tombs and Museums

All prices are quoted in Egyptian pounds. Where one single entry fee applies to several different tombs, the cost for camera or video camera is for each tomb. Taking pictures everywhere can definitely add up if you carry a video camera.

And yes, that is one hundred pounds for a video camera in some of the tombs. Usually, still cameras are free, although there are a few places where they will charge you extra if you use a tripod.

Please remember that FLASH is not allowed in tombs — it damages the colors and plaster work. While many caretakers will “let” you use a flash if you pass them a little baksheesh, it still damages the the walls. Try not to do it. I’ve got some more info on film and such in the Photos section if you want to take pictures inside.

Definitely check a recent guidebook for any changes to these fees.
