What to expect

  1. Temple of Medinat Habu
    2h · Admission ticket included
    Begin your journey at Medinet Habu, one of the West Bank's most underrated gems. Towering pylons, vivid battle reliefs, and an aura of ancient grandeur await in this mortuary temple of Ramses III. Your guide will bring to life the stories of victory and vengeance carved into the massive sandstone walls—often missed by most tourists.
  2. Valley of the Kings
    2h · Admission ticket included
    Step into the realm of Egypt’s most powerful pharaohs. With your guide’s expert narration, explore intricately decorated tombs dug deep into the Theban cliffs. Each chamber reveals the artistry and belief systems of ancient Egyptians—highlighting pharaohs like Ramses VI and Merenptah. An optional ticket to King Tutankhamun’s tomb is available for those eager to see the boy king’s resting place.
  3. 1h · Admission ticket included
    Less visited, but just as captivating, this tranquil necropolis reveals a softer side of Egypt’s royal lineage. Discover the colorful tombs of royal wives and children—especially the famed tomb of Queen Nefertari (entry extra), which stuns with its unmatched beauty and preservation.
  4. Temple of Hatshepsut
    2h · Admission ticket included
    Carved dramatically into the cliffs, this striking terraced temple honors Egypt’s most successful female pharaoh. Walk the colonnaded halls as your guide recounts tales of power, ambition, and divine birth that Hatshepsut used to secure her rule.
  5. Valley of the Artisans (Deir el-Medina)
    1h · Admission ticket included
    End your day at the village of the tomb builders themselves. At Deir el-Medina, you’ll explore modest but beautifully decorated tombs of workers who constructed the grand monuments nearby. Their stories—etched into humble walls—offer an intimate view of everyday life in ancient Egypt.
