Creator's Key Takeaways

I have to say seeing this temple at night was just breathtaking with the remarkable beautiful lighting.

I highly recommend that you do pay, I think it's maybe 20 American dollars, uh, to go inside and take the chance.

Put the tomb of Queen Nefaria on your list as a mustsee.

Seeing these temples is well worth the flight down to Aswan.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Expect to pay $20 for entry to King Tut's tomb in the Valley of the Kings.
Bring your own wipes for restrooms, as toilet paper may not be available.
Tip for restroom use, typically around a dollar.
Use the electric train to avoid walking up the hill to the Valley of the Kings.

YouTube Video Description

In this video, I provide some tips when in Egypt and showcase nine different temples and tombs that I visited while in the Luxor Egypt area. We were on Viking Cruise Lines Nile River cruise aboard the M/S Antares and that is the ideal way to see these sights. There is another separate video of the M/S Antares I posted if your interested. We visited Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, Valley of the Kings and Valley of the Queens, Dendera Temple, Esna Temple, Abu Simbel Temple, Philae Temple, and Edfu Temple.
