Guests have the opportunity to see the 3 tombs in the Valley of the Queens. Highlight of this Royal resting place however is the tomb of Nefertari, beloved wife of Ramses II. Her tomb was closed for a long time but guests are now able to see the best preserved tomb in Egypt.

After having gazed at the Royal tombs of Pharaohs, their sons and Queens, you will visit the village and resting place of the people who build these Royal tombs. Over a period of 500 years, 70 to 80 families lived here while working on the Royal tombs. Because they were the best builders and artists of their time, their own tombs are small jewels, not decorated with Gods but with sceneries of daily life. Note: The remaining time is transfer to get to the Theban Mountains with the sites to visit and lunch.
