After an early breakfast you will be picked up from your hotel in Soma Bay and driven through the desert to Luxor aiming to arrive into the Valley of the Kings before the hottest part of the day. You will be accompanied by an Egyptologist and guided through the fantastic Valley of the Kings. The valley is to the north of Hatshepsut's Deir El-Bahari temple. It was here that kings from 18th to 20th dynasties cut their tombs in the limestone cliffs. That was a long time after their ancestors abandoned the pyramid-shape tomb. The new shape tombs were more secure and deceived the tomb robbers although sadly, almost all tombs were robbed and stripped from their treasures.
