III.

Plain pricing, plainly explained

No seasonal surcharges

The tier price is the same in January as in April. Egyptian tourism is quoted in US dollars because the gate fees at antiquities sites are themselves held in that currency; we follow the same convention without adding a conversion fee of our own.

Tomb supplements are transparent

Three tombs — Tutankhamun (KV62), Seti I and Ramesses VI — carry a small extra charge at the Valley of the Kings gate, set by the Supreme Council of Antiquities. We do not mark this up. The current amounts are listed on the FAQ.
