A century ago, Howard Carter made the greatest archeological discovery of all time when he uncovered the lost tomb of Tutankhamun and its magnificent treasure trove. Celebrate this amazing find by exploring the immersive exhibition Discovering King Tut’s Tomb, now open at Luxor. Follow in Carter’s footsteps, peer through the wall of the antechamber, unlock the burial room, and come face-to-face with the mummy. Behold the artistry of the nested coffins and view Tut’s notorious death mask. Discover why the Egyptians used mummification as a way to preserve and honor their pharaoh leader. With the audio guide, guests can transport themselves back in time by hearing Howard’s own retelling of the moment he first set foot inside the tomb. Through virtual reality, guests can explore the rooms and artifacts themselves just as they were left over 3000 years ago. Light your torch, break the seal, defy the “mummy’s curse” and enter — if you dare.

Interesting and educational. The VR was good. All up a great tour Go and visit if you're in the area
We had a couple hours before our flight so we decided to check this exhibit out. Staff was super friendly. The exhibit was very nicely done. I probably would get the audio with it next time, but it was very interesting! Enjoyed our time
Although our room was clean the whole hotel looked as if it needed a really good clean/refurbishment. Very tried old and dated looking hotel when compared to others on the strip.
Informational and a lot on history was never aware of regarding king TUT . Loves the exhibit. Never knew he was a king as a young boy.
A must visit attraction inside this unusual location on the Las Vegas strip. Very interesting and easy to find on all transport
This exhibit is not worth the money.there are very few artifacts. It’s very short. Went to see the traveling exhibit years ago in Chicago and was fantastic. Don’t waste your money.
Display is in the Luxor - and is a really good presentation of the finding of King Tut's tomb. They do an amazing job with reproductions & videos to tell the story and importance of King Tut. The original Tut Exhibit came to the US when I was a kid in the 70's and was facinating. This allowed me as an adult to visit and better understand. But you need to take time to read/watch the videos. Easily 1.5 hours.
Was good. We did have to pay for the pictures that were taken during the tour. I have nit been able to go and see Tut artifacts so this is best i could do right now.
While the information provided was accurate, the re-creation (there are no authentic artifacts) were not convincing and the use of fake gold over 100% of sarcophagus layers was not impressive, especially if you have seen the real artifacts and sarcophagus head (real gold and ornamint) on display in many U.S. cities (on loan from the Museum of Egyptian Antiquities in Cairo) in 2006–2007. The short stories shown on monitors gave little information and children in the rooms were very board. The Vertual Reality (VR) add-on... This reminded me of technology from 20+ years ago and was OK but what topped it was that the headset's were not cleaned - I could see smudges on the viewer and when I was done, the clerk just said you can go and did nothing to clean the headset - discussting and NOT recommended for adults or children.
Everything is replica and fake. Tickets price and parking is high for this one. This is waste of money and waste of time.
