Here, you’ll step inside three of the most famous tombs, including those of Thutmosis I, Thutmosis III, and the boy king Tutankhamun. These tombs, carved deep into the rock, are adorned with stunning artwork that has survived for thousands of years.
Next, it’s time to visit the breathtaking Temple of Hatshepsut, a monument to Egypt’s most famous female pharaoh. With its unique design and stunning mountain backdrop, this temple is unlike any other.
Before heading south to Aswan, we’ll make a quick stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two massive statues that once guarded a grand mortuary temple.
