Valley of the Kings

Start your tour with the legendary Valley of the Kings, where pharaohs of the New Kingdom (1550–1070 BC) were buried in richly decorated tombs.
This sacred site, nestled in the Theban mountains, holds 63 tombs and was chosen for its spiritual connection to the sun’s journey through the underworld and rebirth.

Temple of Hatshepsut

Next, visit the unique mortuary temple of Queen Hatshepsut, one of Egypt’s most powerful female rulers.
Built into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, this temple features three terraced levels adorned with scenes of her divine birth, trade expeditions, and reign.

Colossi of Memnon

Marvel at the two massive stone statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, standing as silent guardians of his once-grand temple.
These statues are famous for their scale, ancient inscriptions, and links to both Egyptian and Greco-Roman mythology.
