- Unveil the secrets of the Valley of the Kings in Luxor, Egypt! 🇪🇬 This vlog takes you on an exciting adventure exploring ancient tombs, uncovering fascinating pharaoh facts, and sharing tips to avoid scams! Join me as I navigate this historical wonder and discover the beauty (and danger) that awaits! We start at the Colossi of Memnon, then enter into the Valley of the King! We venture into the tombs of: Rameses VII, Rameses IV, Tausert/Setnakht, and also decided to pay extra for the Rameses V and VI Tomb; you'll see why we did very soon! Enjoy the video! :)
You may be asking: Why didn't we visit the tomb of Tutankhamun? Well, Tutankhamun's mummy is in cairo. Also, because he died at a young age, the tomb is one of the least impressive and least decorated. It's also quite expensive for the extra ticket for that tomb, and, it's also very crowded. So a lot of good reasons there! :)

Which tomb was your favourite!? 🐫
Egypt has some fascinating history, but I could never go anywhere where I’m harassed.
Thanks for sharing your experience
Glad you enjoyed!
I really hope there will be some sort of standard for tourism in Egypt one day. It's no wonder they rarely receive returning tourists. It's worth the trip, but it's super stressful! 😅😅
Fab video keep up with the good work 😎 from the uk
Thank you so much! 😊
Ive always wanted to visit egypt thank you for sharing this video ❤
Any time!! :)
Thank you for the travel advisory.
You're welcome! I hope you enjoyed the video! I have a few videos on Luxor coming soon! I just uploaded a new one today
@@s34nTravels Alright !
Nice walk though . 👍
Thanks for the visit! :)
Well that was interesting.
I didn't know you could do a tour of the burial chambers like that. Everything is usually focussed on the Giza plateau pyramids.
Glad you enjoyed it!
It was really cool! I enjoyed Luxor a lot more than Cairo. I was thinking of skipping it completely after visiting the pyramids, but I'm glad I braved out Egypt even longer!
At first I was astonished by the Hieroglyphs of Rameses VII although the money exchange guy spoiled it but Ramseses IV was just incredible! Both the Hieroglyphs and the tomb! My favourite for sure!
What an amazing experience. I cannot believe you are both in Egypt. It started in Peru and now look where you are. What’s also astonishing for me is how you don’t have 1 million followers! I think if you throw in a lot of food in your videos in addition to the travel, that can change😅 Keep plugging away… you will slowly and surely gather a solid number of followers and thanks again for this great videos and your hard work😊
It was amazing wasn't it!? I'm glad we paid the extra $3 to see that one! (I did a little sneaky research beforehand to try and find the best combination!)
Thank you for the feedback about the food! The cafe here was relentless! You needed to take out a small bank loan to pay for a small sandwich 😅 I'll try and remember to add something in the next few videos! Thank you!
We'll be in Peru and Chile again towards the end of the year, so back where it all started! 😊💯
Maybe you could wear large headsets to seem less approachable in scammy or noisy areas. And if it has 2 way radio, you can communicate with each other. Just be careful in areas with cars in case they are too noise cancelling
It sounds like a great idea in touristy areas, but the large headsets might be a little bait in impoverished or sketchy areas. It would probably work in the valley of kings though without any problem!
actually the grafitti can be interesting. I read a book about the decipherment of hieroglyphics before i visited and as in the book, in the first tomb i noticed the grafitti of Napoleons army who where there in 1798. it just added depth to my experience.. nice video!
wow, that's amazing!
We have sone WWI graffiti in the UK (and some other places in Europe), but it's the first time I saw something this old!
Tourism is an important source of income for Egypt, yet vlogger after vlogger complains about the same b.s from aggressive Egyptian merchants and scammers, or scamming-merchants, and nothing is done. If they want to bring the tourists back and fix Egypt's reputation, they need to work on controlling this type of behavior. Poverty is making people desperate but tourists are not there to fix poverty, it's not their responsibility.
Couldn't have said it better myself! 💯
It seems like the solution was to build a New Cairo, rather than fixing the old one
Egypt is the most annoying country I have visited (I have been to 62 countries) in fact I left a few days early taking a total lost on my original flight out to leave days sooner.
Why is it so quiet?
I'm not sure. I think it's human instinct to keep quiet when the dead is mentioned. Maybe out of respect. But it's not like there were mummies here or anything
Not what I meant lol. I'm surprised by the lack of crowds. When I went it was packed everywhere.
