EGYPT: Nile Cruise & Ancient Monuments (Luxor, Aswan, Giza)
Impression of Egypt along the Nile. More videos of the 7-day Nile Cruise:
Egyptian civilization have depended on the river Nile since ancient times. Most of the population and cities of Egypt lie along the Nile valley north of Aswan. Silt deposits from the Nile made the surrounding land fertile because the river overflowed its banks annually. The Ancient Egyptians cultivated and traded wheat, flax, papyrus and other crops around the Nile. The Nile was also a convenient and efficient means of transportation for people and goods. Nearly all the cultural and historical sites of Ancient Egypt are found along river banks.
The Nile was an important part of ancient Egyptian spiritual life and considered to be a causeway from life to death and the afterlife. The east was thought of as a place of birth and growth, and the west was considered the place of death. Thus, all tombs were west of the Nile, because the Egyptians believed that in order to enter the afterlife, they had to be buried on the side that symbolized death.

_______________________________
For more detailed information about each monument see the description of each individual video. Except for:
The Colossi of Memnon (51:16) are two massive stone statues of the Pharaoh Amenhotep III, who reigned in Egypt during the Dynasty XVIII. For the past 3,400 years (since 1350 BC), they have stood in the Theban Necropolis, located west of the River Nile from the modern city of Luxor. Two shorter figures are carved into the front throne alongside his legs: these are his wife Tiye and mother Mutemwiya. The side panels depict the Nile god Hapy.
The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities (55:30), known commonly as the Egyptian Museum, in Cairo-Egypt, is home to an extensive collection of ancient Egyptian antiquities. It has 120,000 items, with a representative amount on display, the remainder in storerooms. It houses the world's largest collection of Pharaonic antiquities.
Part of the collection will be moved to the new Grand Egyptian Museum set to open in 2020. It will house Tutankhamun's complete collection of between 4000 and 5000 artefacts, many of which are undergoing restoration and have never been displayed; the vast collection we have viewed at the old museum represents only about a third of the whole. The Grand Egyptian Museum is located on 50 hectares at Giza, two kilometres from the Grand Pyramids. The Egyptian Museum in Cairo will remain open.

Egypt Part III: Nile River Dinner Cruise and a Tour of The Valley of the Kings
Join us for the final part of our Egyptian adventure. We start by going on a dinner cruise down the Nile RIver in Cairo. The entertainment was amazing and the was as well. The cruise was handled by Emo Tours Egypt, as are the rest of the tours you see in this video.
After the cruise, we took the locals train down to Luxor. We saved $70/person by taking the locals train down to Luxor. We check into our beautiful place at the Luxor Palace Hotel on the West Bank of the Nile River in Luxor. The next day, we commence the tour of historic Luxor with Hatshepsut's Temple. She was the only woman to become Pharaoh in the Egyptian Dynastic Era. Next we headed to the Valley of the Kings and saw the tombs of King Tutmosis I, Tutmosis III, Tut-Ankh-Amon (King Tut), King Ramses VI, King Mrenptah, and Amonhotep II. The hieroglyphs were bright and vibrant, some of them looking like they had just been painted yesterday.
One thing we did notice though while being in the tombs- which we also noticed in the great pyramid on Part II of the adventure- is that our video tended to warble. We thought that a little strange and we tried everything we could to remedy the poor video quality in some areas.
Then we head to the Luxor temple in the middle of town and finished with the temple in Karnak.

Karnak Temple, Luxor, Egypt
EGYPT: Valley of the Kings - Luxor
The Valley of the Kings is a valley in Egypt where rock cut tombs were excavated for the pharaohs and powerful nobles of the New Kingdom (the Eighteenth to the Twentieth Dynasties of Ancient Egypt).
The valley stands on the west bank of the Nile, opposite Thebes (modern Luxor), within the heart of the Theban Necropolis. It consists of two valleys, East Valley (where the majority of the royal tombs are situated) and West Valley (only one tomb is open to the public).
The Valley was used for primary burials for a period of nearly 500 years from the 16th to 11th century BC. It contains at least 63 tombs, beginning with Thutmose I (or possibly earlier, during the reign of Amenhotep I) and ending with Ramesses X or XI, although non-Royal burials continued in usurped tombs.
Only about 20 of the tombs actually contain the remains of kings. The remains of nobles and of the royal family, together with unmarked pits and embalming caches, make up the rest. Around the time of Ramesses I (ca. 1301 BC) construction commenced in the separate Valley of the Queens.
The royal tombs are decorated with scenes from Egyptian mythology and give clues as to the beliefs and funerary rituals of the period. Almost all of the tombs seem to have been opened and robbed in antiquity, but they still give an idea of the opulence and power of the pharaohs.
The tombs were constructed and decorated by the workers of the village of Deir el-Medina. The daily lives of these workers are quite well known and are recorded in tombs and official documents.
In modern times the valley has become famous for the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun (with its rumours of the curse of the pharaohs), and is one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world. In 1979, it became a World Heritage Site, along with the rest of the Theban Necropolis. Exploration, excavation and conservation continues in the valley.
Most of the tombs are not open to the public (18 of the tombs can be opened, but they are rarely open at the same time), and officials occasionally close those that are open for restoration work. Tour guides are no longer allowed to lecture inside the tombs, and visitors are expected to proceed quietly and in single file through the tombs. This is to minimize time in the tombs and prevent the crowds from damaging the surfaces of the decoration.
El Qurn is the highest point (420 m) in the Theban Hills. It has an almost pyramidal shape when viewed from the entrance to the Valley of the Kings, and therefore some Egyptologists believe it may have been the reason for choosing the location as a royal necropolis.
March 18, 2019
A videography ticket (EP 300) is needed to film inside the tombs.

An Indian in Egypt | Nile River | Luxor temples | Egypt Trains | Bollywood fans
In this video, you will watch me crossing the Nile river in the cheapest possible way. I just paid 1 L.E (3.5 Indian Rupees) to cross the Nile river in a public boat. Again I was hassled by the touts, taxi drivers, travel agents, etc. at the West Bank. I have also shared my experience of tourist scam in Cambodia - Thailand trip. I visited the Hatshepsut temple. I have shared the information about the entry ticket in Hatshepsut temple. I had Koshari, Roz Belaban and Fool in the lunch. So you will see it is not difficult to get the vegetarian food in Egypt. Also, you will see a few crazy Bollywood fans of Egypt. I came back to Luxor train station to catch the train to Cairo. You will also get a glimpse of the coming video in which I am going to show you my train journey from Luxor to Cairo, my experience in Cairo Metro and the famous place in Cairo, Tahrir square.

LUXOR TEMPLE & VALLEY OF THE KINGS | Egypt Travel Vlog
We only had one day to explore Luxor, Egypt, so even though we barely slept on the overnight train from Cairo, we went out at 7:00 A.M. to be the first and only tourists at the incredible Luxor Temple! It was totally worth it because it wasn't too hot yet and we took all the videos and photos we wanted with NO other people! Once the first tour bus arrived, we headed back to our hotel and had breakfast (AND COFFEE), but then decided to nap for few hours to wait out the mid day heat before heading to the Valley of the Kings via a $0.10 ferry and $7 taxi. Once again, we felt like there should have been way more tourists than there was, but we weren't complaining!

Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started “travel hacking” and taking more trips together and finally decided we wanted to travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and travel hacking over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this YouTube channel to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling. So we extended our 1 year trip to THREE years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before Nate turns 30 (which is March 20, 2019)! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)
