About

Tomb of the Pharaohs is a new ancient Egypt blockbuster attraction now open in Cairns.

This indoors experience provides visitors with a journey through 11 of the most lavishly decorated tombs and temples of ancient Egypt. Each recreated tomb is filled with hieroglyphic wall inscriptions, stele engraved plaques, mummified human and animal remains, and over 450 meticulously crafted museum items made in Egypt using traditional sculpting and goldsmithing methods.

Visitors will experience tombs filled with the Kings and Queens burial treasures as if they were the very first archaeologist to chance upon these remarkable finds before the antiques were looted or removed.

World-first displays of Queen Nefertari's gold burial objects and the solid silver accoutrements of King Psusennes I and Sheshong II are revealed within the attraction.

This journey provides a mesmerising way to learn about one of the richest civilisations that ever existed and see the astonishingly beautiful burial items Egyptian royalty accumulated in preparation for the afterlife.
