🏛️ Visit Medinet Habu Temple .

Start your day with the magnificent Temple of Medinet Habu, built by King Ramses III.

Admire its towering pylons, colorful wall carvings, and hieroglyphs depicting legendary battles and festivals. Your Egyptologist guide will bring the stories to life, explaining how this temple was both a place of worship and a royal memorial.

🏠 Visit the Valley of the Workers – Deir el-Medina 

Next, explore Deir el-Medina, the ancient village where Egypt’s craftsmen and artists lived while constructing the royal tombs.

Walk through the beautifully preserved houses and see the vivid tombs of the workers, which still retain their bright colors and detailed depictions of daily life.

Continue to the Valley of the Queens, the burial site of royal wives and children from the 18th to 20th dynasties.
