Although it's one of the smaller, less decorated, tombs you have to see it because it's so famous. Just be sure to see the treasurers that have been moved to the Cairo Museum.

If you go to Valley of the Kings then you should really go and see this tomb. It is a bit expensive and all but a coffin and the his mummy are left in the tomb, the rest are in the Egyptian Museum. Still worth having a look. There was a local man, who we didn't know, trying to show... More

We paid extra to go in this tomb it is very small compared to others at the valley of the kings. we had been to the cairo museum and seen all the mummies there and that was much better.

We were lucky that King Tut was on his way back to Cairo and he was in the Valley of the Kings only for 1 month and we got to see him in a glass sarcophagus and his gold one was in the tomb as well brill!!

not as elaborate as the other tombs and a bit of a rip off at £10 english... the mummy is on display tho so i guess that makes it worth paying the extra amount for....? perhaps...

Is very disappointing and not really impressive small tomb. You walk down on very very steep stairs to tiny room where the king rest. Is ok but nothing to brag about it, and at £10 per person just for that tomb is a big rip off..lol..

I felt it was worth it at 100 L.E. to see King Tut's mummy and a few rooms of his very small tomb. However, after visiting this tomb, I can understand why some people felt like the only tomb that had not been plundered by tomb robbers had robbed them of 100 L.E.
