    Itinerary
    This is a typical itinerary for this product

    Stop At: Valley of the Nobles, West Bank near Ramesseum Gurna, Luxor Egypt

    Your local Egyptologist tour guide will pick you up from your Luxor Hotel / Nile Cruise and then start to explore Theban necropolis in Luxor west bank of the River Nile. Begin at the Valley of the Nobles, where ancient Egypt’s nobles tombs and high officials are scattered throughout the rocky hills on the West Bank of Luxor at el Qurna hills, mostly dating back to Thebes' Golden Age during the New Kingdom (1550 – 1080BC). The Nobles tombs are embellished with scenes from everyday life, funerals, and depictions of their owners' ideal afterlife. These tombs offer us much knowledge about life and spiritual beliefs in olden Egypt. Their magnificence also shows off the expertise and creativity of ancient Egyptian artisans.
