Tombs of the nobles

The nobles are the ones who had the high positions in Egypt , we have hundreds of their tombs in Luxor lots of them have not been cleaned yet . we still excavate more tombs for them because lots of houses had been built on top .
The unique thing about their tomb is that they show us scenes of their life & the life of the workmen whom they supervise.
they are scattered in more than 4 places each group with different ticket , so it's better to tell your guide about the name of the tomb or the scenes you are interested to see
