Tips for Visiting KV44 #

KV44 sits in the Valley of the Kings where access to specific tombs changes frequently - confirm at the visitor centre which tombs are included on the day's circuit to avoid wasted travel.
Plan an early visit when the Valley first opens to dodge the main tour groups and the midday heat that can make interiors uncomfortable.
Many visitors stick to the most famous tombs; ask a guide or the ticket office about any small painted or undecorated chambers that are open that day, as these are often missed.

Best Time to Visit KV44 #

Visit in the cooler months (October-April) for the most comfortable conditions; summers bring extreme heat and fewer comfortable visiting hours.

Cool season

Pleasant daytime temperatures for exploring tombs; expect higher tourist numbers at major sites during these months.
