Temples · Luxor · West Bank
Visit the Valley of the Kings from Luxor’s west bank. If you want to enter a specific tomb, check the list of open tombs and the ticket required before choosing a tour.
Plan the visit
Check which tombs can be visited and whether any you want to see needs a separate ticket.
Put Hatshepsut, the Colossi of Memnon and the Valley of the Kings on the same route. Keep another stretch for Karnak, on the opposite bank.
Open the stopIf you have a particular tomb in mind, check that it is open. Also ask whether the tour leaves time to explore on your own.
Tomb KV62 needs a separate check. In the two cruise itineraries compared here, its ticket is an extra.
