This tomb comes with a extra fee, but also with a bot of physical effort, but it is totally worth it. In my opinion, it was one of the most beautiful, that tells so many stories of that time (the Judgement day, the heaven, the Gods and their roles). You will also see an unfinished chamber with all the steps it takes to make one of those amazing walls. Unfortunately, the path down is closed and you cannot visit the entire tomb (it is said to get narrower and narrower as it descends, but nobody knows where it finishes). You must have at least 15 minutes to visit it as it is one of the largest. And there are plenty of stairs on the way in... And out.

Exceptional, marvelously special tombe. The most impressive of all accessible tombes. We visited this magic place on Friday June 3th, 2022, between 16:20 and 17:00hrs, and this epic location will resonate for ever. Extra costs for a ticket: 1000 Egyptian pounds This extra ticket is to be bought at the main (and only) ticket-box-office. Guides are not allowed in this specific tomb, since it’s not allowed to talk inside the tomb. Pictures: only with telephone, no flash allowed.

Very large and well-preserved tomb with amazing reliefs. Requires an (expensive) extra ticket, but worth it in my opinion. The high cost means most people skip it and as a result you are likely to be on your own in the tomb. In several places the tomb is unfinished and as a result it gives a very good insight into how the decoration was created.

This tomb is very expensive, and it just opened again in 2017. With the 1000 EGP it might not be worth it as a stand alone ticket, but it is worth it with the Luxor Pass. The reliefs are amazing, and by far one of the most preserved, and largest tomb in the valley. With such a steep price, you will most probably be by yourself in the tomb.

Paid extra 1400 egp to see this and it’s well worth it as it’s one of the best decorated tombs in the valley. Be prepared to climb stairs and I am not sure where the entrance fee revenue goes as the guy at the door still asks for money for just stamping your ticket…

This tumb is certainly the most impressive tumb you can visit in the King's Valley. It's the biggest one and the most preserved one with beautiful scenes and sculptures. It definitely worths the extra cost. A lifetime experience
