from the mountain wall up to the tomb of thothmoses III in the valley of the kings

Photo showing the road up to a tomb in the Valley of the Kings.

Since the time when TutAnchAmons tomb was discovered in Luxor, and Howard Carter first announced this at the Old Winter Palace in 1922 - the Valley of the Kings has had an fairytale like aura for visitors to Egypt. Just recently the largest tomb in the valley was found by Kent Weeks, the "KV5" tomb, more known as the tomb of the sons of Ramses II. KV5 tomb covers an area of more than 1260 square meters and is the largest tomb found in the valley. One of Ramses II son became Pharaoh (MernetPtah), and he has his own tomb just above the mentioned tomb of TutAnchAmons tomb. In fact, the debris from the digging of the tomb of MernetPtah covered the entrance to the small tomb of TutAnchAmon - most likely being the reason why this tomb never was discovered by grave robbers. The first tomb in the Valley of the Kings was built for ThothMoses I., the father of Hatshepsut.

EGYPT EXPEDITIONS & TOURS

An elderly American professor in Egyptology (ancient Egyptian history and culture) was asked during his last season in Egypt before retirement, if he felt he had seen all of Egypt now? He answered - "are you crazy, I have only been here for twenty years"! With that statement in mind, you would do best if you look at some tour options before you finalize your Egypt tour plans.
