Valley of the Kings

This was an amazing place - there are some 60 tombs of the ancient queens and kings of Egypt that have been found to date. Nine of them are open to the public, and we were able to go into three of them. Incredible! There are still some 200 work sites of different countries searching for more tombs, like the one below.

  1. And this week they just published a new discovery they made of a sealed sarcophagus never raided in all those centuries! Just in time for your trip!
