Deir el-Medina, Luxor

Deir el-Medina The West Bank of Luxor is one of the most interesting Egypt archaeological sites. It is an old village where the skilled artisans and craftsmen that constructed and trimmed the royal tombs at Valley of the Kings lived. The view into the everyday lives of the working minority in the New Kingdom can be seen in Deir el Medina unlike no other ancient settlements.
The ruins consist of well-kept houses, chapels and gorgeous adorned tombs. These tombs are smaller in scale compared to the ones of the royals but they are so detailed and colorful, and they demonstrate the ability of the very same people creating final destinations of the pharaohs. One of the most well known tombs is that of Sennedjem, with its scenes of the afterlife painted in beautiful condition.

The visit to Deir el-Medina is sure to become even more unforgettable, which was discovered when following the Sola Dahabiya Nile Cruise. This luxury cruise is a luxurious and tranquil trip along the Nile visiting cultural and historical sites that are not usually visited by the bigger tour companies.
