Discovering Valley of the Kings - Luxor
Journey across Egypt to the Luxor often described as the world's greatest open air museum. The city of Luxor comprises of three areas, on the east side of the Nile, the town of Karnak to the north and Thebes to the west.The number of preserved monuments in the Luxor area is unparalleled anywhere else in the World. Most famed of all, The Valley of the Kings stands on the west bank of the Nile. The river's banks were the principal burial place of Royalty, none more famous than Howard Carter's discovery of the tomb of the boy king Tutankhamen in 1922.
This single event captured the imagination of the entire world, creating a universal fascination which has never been extinguished.
