On this tour, we will be focusing on the lesser known sites in western Luxor, which are known by locals but less visited by tourists. This makes them less crowded usually, so you'll be able to enjoy touring them without big crowds of people around. Instead of the very famous Valley of the Kings, we'll be covering the Valley of the Queens, which was the burial place for the kings' wives in 1500 B. C. We will be able to visit 3 tombs: Amonhrkhopshef, Queen Titi and Khaemwaset. We will also be visiting the Valley of the Workers (Deir el-Madina), where the workers and artisans who dug the royal tombs lived. It is considered to be one of the best archaeological sites in Egypt, where we'll be able to visit tombs, the ruins of their houses and a small temple as well. Madient Habu Temple; the mortuary temple of King Rameses III is only a short drive away, and it's one of the best preserved temples of Ancient Egypt, especially regarding its vivid colors and sheer size.
- Starting with a pick-up from your lodging within Luxor, we'll proceed to drive to the West Bank for a visit to the Valley of the Queens. - Once we got there, we'd begin by visiting the tombs of Amonhrkhopshef, son of King Ramesses III. - Next, we'd visit Queen Titi tomb. - Afterwards, we'll reach Prince Khaemwaset tomb. If you wished, we could also add Nefertari's tomb upon request, in a separate ticket. - We'd continue towards Madinet Habu Temple which is the hidden gem that Rameses III built and called 'The House of Millions of Years'. Its colours and art are extraordinary. - Besides the temple visit, we'll also get to see the remains of his royal palace, located next to the temple. - Our tour will end with me dropping you off at your chosen location. This itinerary could be customized upon request.
