Highlights tours:
1-Temple of the queen Hatshepsut
The temple of Hatshepsut is one of the most beautiful of all temples in ancient Egypt. It is located in Deir el-Bahri (“the monastery of the north”), at the upper end of the valley under the mountain top (and the nature pyramid) “Decent” (today is known under the Arabic name el-Quran – “The Horn”).
It lies directly on the rock, which forms a natural amphitheater around it so that the temple itself seems to develop from the living rock. The design of the temple is reminiscent of that of the death temple of Montuhotep, it’s neighbor.
The remote, barren Valley of the Kings was the necropolis of the New Kingdom pharaohs. By digging their tombs deep into the Theban Hills, pharaohs from Tuthmosis I (c.1500 BC) on hoped to stop robbers stealing the priceless possessions buried with them.
It was an unsuccessful strategy. Despite their hidden locations, every burial chamber was raided except for those of Yuya and Tuya (seep 779, and Tutankhamun, discovered by Howard Carter in 1922, its glorious treasures still intact.
But for all that, the structures themselves remain, their dramatic corridors and burial chambers stunningly adorned with symbolic accounts of the journey through the underworld and ritual paintings to assist the pharaohs in the afterlife
Soaring 18 m (60 ft) into the sky, the two enthroned statues of Amenhotep III are the first monuments most visitors see on arriving in the West Bank.
They originally guarded Amenhotep’s mortuary temple – thought to have been the largest ever built in Egypt -which was plundered for building material by later pharaohs and gradually destroyed by the annual floods.
Once the tour is complete you will be transferred in comfort back to your hotel.
