Getting There & Around
How to Get to WV24
Sites with archaeological designations in the New Valley area are typically reached from local towns such as Kharga; travel requires organized transport, local permissions and often specialized off-road vehicles. Coordinate with Egyptian antiquities authorities or licensed archaeological teams.
Tips for Visiting WV24
- Bring strong sun protection and a wide-brim hat - New Valley summers are intense.
- Carry extra water and a satellite locator; cell coverage is intermittent in remote Egyptian desert regions.
- If visiting archaeological shafts (like many in the Western Desert), go with licensed guides and ensure permits are in order.
