There are 63 known tombs in the valley, 26 carved for kings and the others granted to royal family members or the highest of the elite. Of these, fifteen are currently open to the public, and Valley of the Queens; there are between 75 and 80 tombs in the Valley of the Queens, or Biban al Harim. These belong to Queens of the 18th, 19th and 20th Dynasties.
Furthermore, Egypt Nile River Cruise allows you to visit Queen Hatshepsut Temple; his temple located at Deir El Bahari stands out as one of the most impressive and well preserved temples in Egypt, considered one of the most characteristic temples in the whole of Egypt, due to its design and decorations as it was built of limestone, not sandstone like most of the other funerary temples of the New Kingdom period. It dates back to the 18th dynasty, dedicated to Queen Hatshepsut who was a rare female Pharoah as she was the fifth pharaoh of the 18th dynasty of Ancient Egypt. She is generally regarded by modern Egyptologists as one of the most successful pharaohs, ruling longer than any female ruler of an indigenous dynasty. Nile River Cruise gives you the chance to visit Colossi of Memnon; two ruined statues around 20 m high, known as the guardians of Amenhotep III Temple which was completely destroyed during the earthquake that occurred in 27 BC. They were made famous in antiquity by a mysterious sound emitted from one of them each sunrise.

Then scout Kom Ombo Temple; one of the most charming temples in Egypt, consists of two temples Sobek Temple and Haroeris Temple. Kom Ombo Temple was built during the Greco Roman period. It was constructed on the ruins of a much older temple which was called "Ber Sobek" or the house of the god Sobek.

Get amazed with Cruise to Egypt and find your inner peace while exploring the charming atmosphere and visiting the most attractive sites in the city such as Philae Temple; situated in the Island of Philae, this temple contains of many ancient Egyptian sanctuaries and shrines. The temple was built during the Ptolemy’s dynasty and dedicated for the worshiping of the ancient Egyptian god Osiris, it includes two fancy temples. The Temple was relocated by UNESCO after the building of the Aswan Dam threatened the site, the Unfinished Obelisk; it dates back to the 18th century during the reign of Hatshepsut, supposed to be the biggest part of Egyptian masonry. Had this obelisk been completed, it would have been the heaviest obelisk ever cut in Ancient Egypt, weighing nearly 1100 tons; it is 42m in length and was most probably abandoned when some cracks appeared in the rock during its construction. Nile Cruise Egypt allows you to visit the High Dam which is considered one of the most important achievements of the last century in Egypt, built by the president Gamal Abdel Nasser because of the Nile River flooding, which affected badly on many lands in Egypt, therefore this amazing project started in 1960 and perfectly finished in 1971.
