- Valley of the Kings - Next, drive to the west bank to visit the Valley of the Kings, where pharaohs of the New Kingdom carved their tombs into the mountains to hide their treasures and protect their mummies.
- Howard Carter House - Then, visit the domed mud-brick house where Howard Carter lived during his search for Tutankhamun’s tomb. The house, surrounded by a garden on a barren slope above the road from Deir Al Bahari to the Valley of the Kings, has been restored and decorated with pictures and tools from the excavations. An exact replica of Tutankhamun’s burial chamber has been constructed on the edge of the garden, along with an exhibition related to the discovery of the tomb.

- Art Valley Alabaster Factory - After that, visit the alabaster factory where people still bring stones from the quarry and craft them into various handmade items, just like the ancient Egyptians did.
- Tombs of the Nobles - Luxor - Then, head to the Valley of the Nobles, which contains the tombs of nobles in Luxor, such as Ramose, Senniffer, Menna, and over 400 other Theban nobles. These tombs, nestled in the foothills opposite the Ramesseum, feature beautifully carved scenes.
- Ramesseum (Mortuary Temple of Ramses II) - Next, visit the Ramesseum Temple, the memorial temple of Pharaoh Ramses II, located in the Theban Necropolis in Upper Egypt on the west bank of the Nile, across from modern Luxor. The design of Ramesses’s mortuary temple follows the standard canons of New Kingdom temple architecture.

Known in ancient times as Ta-Set-Neferu, meaning ‘the place of beauty,’ it contains more than 90 known tombs, usually consisting of an entrance passage, a few short halls, and a sarcophagus chamber. You will visit three tombs of queens and their sons, such as the tombs of Amun-Khepshef, Khaem-Waset, and Queen Tyti, the wife of King Ramses III. The most notable tomb is that of Nefertari, the favorite queen of Ramses II.
