KV17 is the gold standard of royal tombs. Seti I went all in—deep corridors, intricate carvings, colors so fresh they look wet. Every inch tells a story, from gods to afterlife manuals. Longest, most decorated tomb in the Valley. Parts are closed off, but what you can see is pure art. Unmissable.

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.

We were expecting to see the best tumb at Seti I since we pay 4 times more than the other tombs (2.000egp), but, unfortunately, it wasn't the case. It is the deeper tomb, but other tombs are much prettier and cheaper, like KV8 & KV9, choice carefully.

Marvelous, well preserved tomb. You will have to purchase a separate ticket for it but it is well worth it. Be prepared to walking down a lot then up, I would start with this tomb first.

Well, I don’t know what to say about this magnificent piece of artwork,It’s beautifully made And decorated and beautifully preserved, It’s simply out of this world, wow there’s not enough words to express how beautiful this tomb is, Totally worth to visit and definitely worth to be the most expensive one among the other tombs in The Valley of The Kings.

This is the best tomb I visited in the Valley of the Kings. It's incredibly well-preserved and the underground area is much larger than I thought! The ticket is separate and the most expensive but it's very well worth it in my opinion.

The largest accessible tomb at time of visiting. Requires extra ticket for EGP2000. Well preserved and quite interesting

Really don't understand why this one is so much more expensive than the others ...? There's nothing special or different from the others. So just another Egiptian rip off haha
