Known locally as the Gates of the Kings, it lies next to the Valley of the Queens, also known as the Gates of the Harem, where the pharaohs' wives and queens were interred. Religious architecture evolved throughout this time, and ancient Egypt saw an unparalleled urban rebirth... The pharaoh's tomb and his temple were formerly one architectural unit—the pyramids and pyramid tombs are the clearest illustration of this—but during the New Kingdom, there was a major change, and the tomb and temple were split apart. Learn more with our guide, who can provide you with the knowledge you need and speaks English well.

On a day excursion to the Valley of the Queens, you may journey 3,500 years back in time and see some of the queens' underground tombs. Admire the colorful artwork on the walls while learning about the ideas of the ancient Egyptians on the afterlife.

Itinerary

Start your tour with us early in the morning where you will visit: The Valley of the Kings: Despite thousands of years since it was built in the heart of the mountain to protect the tombs of their kings and queens from theft, the Valley of the Kings and Queens cemetery area in western Luxor Governorate still attracts the whole world to enjoy the grandeur of the ancient Egyptian civilization and the great genius in construction and building in the interior of Luxor for their tombs, as it took the ancient Egyptians more than 500 full years to bury their kings and queens in this valley located in the interior of the Qurna Mountain.

You will then be taken to the Valley of the Queens. Princes and princesses from the New Kingdom, a group of ministers from the governing elite of ancient Egypt, and queens from the Eighteenth, Nineteenth, and Twentieth Dynasties (often referred to as the Ramesside era) are all allowed to enter the tombs.

What are the most famous tombs in the Valley of the Queens?
