Overview

The tombs in the Valley of the Kings may be famous. But the Valley of the Nobles and the Valley of the Artisans hold by far Luxor’s most beautiful grave paintings—most of them well preserved. See the tombs of Nakht, an ancient priest, and Menna, a government official, then marvel at the craft the painters brought to their own tombs, with your own private Egyptologist and transfers direct from your door.

Our guide was Sayed and we couldn't have wished for better company to lead us through millenia of Egyptian history and legend as we toured the temples of Karnak and Luxor. Sayed made us feel as we were in the company of an old friend but one who was an expert on Egyptology. Highly recommended.

What you see on this excursion is breathtaking and good value for money. The guide Ahmed Abdallah was first class. His passion and delivery of what we were looking at was excellent. Off the back of this first rate tour we decided he was worth spending a further two days exploring Valley of the Kings one day and Dendera the next. Charge for KV for 2 people was $80 starting at 7am and back by 1pm. This seemed fair and his delivery and beating the crowds was good. Dendera the charge was $160 for 2 people starting at 6am, back by 11am. The temple was definitely worth seeing. Whilst it’s an hour’s

Excellent tour, very knowledgeable guide. Went to many more tombs that were not expected. However, be wary of the alabaster shop. Like many other tours, they will push you to buy items at inflated prices and force tips. Definitely do the tour - avoid the alabaster shop.

It's an alternative part of visiting Luxor because most of the other excursions don't go to these valleys. Our guide was sympathic, competent and a perfect english.
