Tour Itinerary

Begin your day with a delicious breakfast at your hotel, followed by a warm greeting from our representative. You’ll then embark on a comfortable journey in a private air-conditioned vehicle to Luxor’s West Bank. Your first stop is the Valley of the Kings, where you’ll explore the stunning tombs of ancient Egypt’s most famous pharaohs, including Thutmose III, Tutankhamun, and Ramesses VI. Admire the intricate wall paintings and impressive architecture that have survived for millennia.

Next, visit the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut (Deir el-Bahari), a remarkable structure built to honor Egypt’s first female ruler. Take in the temple’s striking terraces and detailed reliefs as you learn about Hatshepsut’s extraordinary reign during the 18th Dynasty.

Continue your journey to the Colossi of Memnon, two giant statues of Amenhotep III, which have stood guard over the desert for thousands of years. Take in the grandeur and snap memorable photos while learning about the fascinating legends surrounding these monumental figures.

After your exploration of the West Bank, enjoy a delicious traditional Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant before heading to the East Bank in the afternoon. Your next destination is the awe-inspiring Karnak Temple, one of the largest and most impressive religious complexes in the world. Walk among its towering columns, massive obelisks, and the sacred lake, all dedicated to the gods Amun, Mut, and Khonsu.

Finally, visit the Luxor Temple, a true gem of ancient Egyptian architecture. Built by Amenhotep III and later expanded by Ramesses II, this temple stands as a testament to the grandeur of Egypt’s ancient civilization.

As the day comes to an end, relax on a comfortable ride back to your hotel, taking with you lasting memories of Luxor’s awe-inspiring historical treasures.
