Itinerary

• 1
  Valley of the Kings

  Considered among the most significant archaeological destinations on earth, the Valley of the Kings was the burial place for many of Egypt’s New Kingdom pharaohs—the most famous of which is the tomb of Tutankhamun, aka King Tut. The remaining tombs are divided into three sections; those of Ramses VI and Ay rank among the most beautiful, thanks to their intricate detail.

  Tomb of King Tutankhamun (Tut)

  If you mention to someone that you will be visiting KV62 while you’re in Egypt, the chances are they won’t have any idea what you are talking about. On the other hand, if you tell them you’ll be visiting the Tomb of King Tut in the Valley of the Kings you’ll immediately see the envy in their eyes. Yes, I’m sure most will agree that KV62 is an incredibly unromantic name for what is perhaps the most famous of all the ancient Egyptian tombs – that of King Tutankhamen.

  1 hour • Admission ticket not included

  Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari

  This impressive mortuary temple, built by Queen Hatshepsut, seems to blend in with the limestone cliffs from which it was cut. The meticulously restored complex happens to sit on one of the hottest places on the planet, so most visitors come in the cooler morning hours.

• 4
  Colossi of Memnon

  Standing nearly 60 feet (18 meters) above the desert plain, the two faceless statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III are often the first monuments you’ll see when visiting Luxor’s West Bank. Each of the two Colossi was cut from a single block of stone.

  2 hours • Admission ticket included
• 5
  Temple of Karnak

  The largest of Luxor’s temples, Karnak Temple was one of the most sacred sites in ancient Egypt. It marked the ascendancy of Thebes (present day Luxor) as the capital of the New Kingdom, with construction beginning in the 16th century BC. Most subsequent rulers tinkered with the complex so it represents a great crash course in different pharaonic styles.
