Sue and I were invited to go and see the artists tomb of those who did the painting in the valley of Kings tombs.Re: River God
Wow ! You must have boarded one of the hotel/barges ABOVE the Aswan High Dam and headed SOUTH. To get into Nubian territory must have been a very long trip. I hoped they stopped at Abu Simbel.Re: River God

For those of you interested in Egypt, I can thoroughly recommend the books written by Christian Jacq. I have virtually collected a full set over the years, all of them difficult to put down once you start reading.Re: River God
Re: River God
We were fortunate enough to enter King Tutankhamun's tomb when we went to Egypt about 15 years ago. You had to pay an extra fee on top of the entrance fee to the Valley of the Kings but it was well worth it though to see the young King's tomb. The tomb was a lot smaller than the other tombs and not as highly decorated, there were narrow steps going down into it, we weren't allowed to take photos and it was very claustrophobic.
