As you arrive at Luxor's west bank, immerse yourself in the extraordinary realm of three majestic royal tombs in the Valley of the Kings, also known as the Valley of the Gates of the Kings. This renowned site served as a royal burial ground for nearly 500 years during the New Kingdom, covering the Eighteenth to Twentieth Dynasties.
