Visitor Center: Tickets and Shuttle Ride to the Tomb AreaBegin at the visitor center. Review the shuttle route and check which tombs are open that day.
-
First Three Included Tombs (Varies by Day)Visit the three tombs available under the general entry ticket. These usually include different combinations of Ramses and Merenptah-era tombs. They provide a solid introduction to the artwork and layout styles of the New Kingdom.
-
KV9 – Ramses VI TombThe tomb consists of a series of descending corridors that lead deep underground, in a straight line to the burial chamber. The exquisitely painted sunk relief walls are very well preserved.
-
Seti the FirstOne of the most elaborate and fully decorated tombs in the Valley of the Kings. It requires a separate premium ticket, priced higher than all other tombs due to its exceptional preservation and controlled visitor capacity. Inside, the tomb features long corridors, detailed reliefs, and multiple chambers extending deep into the hillside. Visitors follow a designated path to protect the artwork, and photography rules may vary. This stop is ideal for travelers seeking the most complete example of royal New Kingdom tomb design.
-
Tomb of Tutankhamun (KV62)Tutankhamun’s tomb requires a separate ticket and is not included in the standard Valley of the Kings entry. KV62 is one of the smallest tombs in the valley, but historically significant. Inside, visitors can enter the descending passage and see the decorated burial chamber, which contains the king’s nested sarcophagus. Some original wall paintings remain visible, and Tutankhamun’s mummy is displayed in a climate-controlled case within the chamber. Due to its size, visits are brief and capacity is limited, making early arrival helpful.
-
Tomb of Ay (WV23)The Tomb of Ay requires a separate ticket and is located in the West Valley, an area distinct from the main Valley of the Kings. Access generally requires private transportation, as this tomb is isolated and not served by the standard shuttle. WV23 is modest in size but notable for its decorative program, which closely resembles the Amarna art style connected to Tutankhamun’s period. The tomb features a sloping corridor leading to a single burial chamber with painted scenes. Due to its remote location, visits are quiet and brief, making it suitable for travelers interested in lesser-visited royal tombs.
