About Valley of the Kings

Although referred to as the Valley of the Kings, the Egyptians gave this Valley a more impressive name: Ta-sekhet-ma'at, or "The Great and Majestic Necropolis of the Millions of Years of the Pharaoh, Life, Strength, and Health in The West of Thebes." You can explore ancient Egypt's Valley of the Kings, where breathtaking cliffs and exquisite tombs bring history to life. An Egypt tour promises a fascinating voyage through time for history buffs, travellers, and ancient culture enthusiasts. You can see detailed hieroglyphics, bright murals, and rich burial objects on the luxuriously furnished tombs carved deep into the rocky environment. 


The intriguing stories told in each tomb shed light on the beliefs and practices of the Egyptian pharaohs as they sought eternal life in the afterlife. You can visit the 64 marked burial sites, which feature beautiful wall sculptures featuring religious images, mythological narratives, and ancient Egyptian life. Lastly, you can also witness the tombs of Tutankhamun, Ramses II, and Hatshepsut, whose legends continue to fascinate.

We booked the Egypt Nile cruise package through Thrillophilia and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The Egyptologist guide arranged for the Luxor and Aswan sections was outstanding. He spoke fluent English and had a way of making the history feel urgent and relevant rather than like a textbook. Abu Simbel required an early morning flight which Thrillophilia had sorted as part of the itinerary without us having to figure out the domestic connection. The Pyramids of Giza on the first day and the Valley of the Kings on Day 4 were the biggest highlights. Cairo Khan el-Khalili bazaar on the last evening was a wonderful chaotic end to the trip. The team was reachable throughout and responded quickly whenever we had a query. Romba nalla planning from the Thrillophilia team. Would definitely book again.

Our Nile cruise was the most relaxing part of our journey from Kolkata. Seeing the temples of Luxor and Karnak was a dream come true for my history-loving parents. Thrillophilia's planning was impeccable.
