We will travel to El Minya, about halfway between the north and south of Egypt but a short distance from Cairo. Our expert guide will give you a historical presentation about the history of Egypt during the approximately four-hour trip. We will start by visiting Tel El Amarna, founded by King Akhenaton, Amenhotep III's son and Tutankhamun's father. It is home to many beautiful monuments and historical sites dating back to Egypt's Pharaonic period. You will be able to see the beautiful rock-cut tombs of the southern and northern groups and explore one of the rare remaining royal palaces from ancient Egypt, the palace of Queen Nefertiti. After that, we will continue your El Minya Tour from Cairo and move to Beni Hassan to see the Nobles' tombs and rulers of the region during the Middle Kingdom. You will be amazed by the full view of daily life scenes like hunting, harvesting, and making acrobats. These popular wrestling movements show over 250 actions and many other everyday life scenes over 4000 years old.
