Valley of The Kings Ticket with Skip the line Entry Audio Guide

Overview

This ticket includes entry to 3 standard tombs, with upgrade options for selected or all special tombs. The Valley of the Kings is one of the most iconic archaeological sites in the world, serving as the royal burial ground for pharaohs of Egypt’s New Kingdom. Among those laid to rest here are legendary rulers such as Tutankhamun, Ramses II, Tuthmosis III, & Seti I, along with nobles, queens, & royal children. The site is divided into two sections: the East Valley, which contains the majority of tombs, & the West Valley, where only one tomb—the tomb of Ay—is open to visitors. Between 1539 and 1075 BC, more than 60 tombs were carved into the limestone hills on the west bank of the Nile. The site is dominated by the striking peak of al-Qurn, whose pyramidal shape recalls the grandeur of the pyramids at Giza. This was chosen as a royal burial ground to protect pharaohs’ tombs & treasures from the rampant looting that plagued the pyramids of Giza and the Nile Delta.
