Helpfulness
However, if you will pass in distant tombs where there are few tourists or where tourists do not go at all the rule on an interdiction to photograph begins to be not such rigid.
The profit of my choice KV14 and KV15 was that a guard almost asked me to make a photo. You may see me on the pics inside of the tombs! It’s strictly forbidden you know. But if you want very much it costs a dollar. You are welcome to make photos!

The main trouble during visiting the valley was the interdiction on photoshooting inside of tombs and on videoshooting in all the territory of the valley. Videocameras should be handed over in the left-luggage office.
Vigilant security guards watch tourists do not photograph inside of tombs. Scandal with the purpose of extortion of money rises if they manage to find out an infringer. I witnessed one of such scandals.
One of security guards tried to carp at me, but I showed him the last pic of my camera with the outside view of the tomb and he fortunately calmed down.
