Valley of the Kings, Private Tour in English
About This Tour
The Valley of the Kings is one of the most significant archaeological sites in the world. It is the final resting place of more than 60 pharaohs, including Tutankhamun and Ramses II. With our local guide, you will delve deep into history, far away from the noise of large tour groups.
You will visit three carefully selected tombs, whose vivid wall paintings have told the story of the pharaohs' journey to the afterlife for thousands of years. Your guide will explain hieroglyphs, myths and secrets that no travel book contains.
The tour begins with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in Luxor. We then cross the Nile by ferry, an unforgettable start to the day.
