What to expect

Day 1: East bank Luxor ( Karnak - Luxor temples )
  1. The Karnak Temple
    2h · Admission ticket included
    Pickup from your Hotel or Nile Cruise in Luxor With Tour Licensed guide then you will be transferred by Private A/C Vehicle to visit Karnak Temple Complex, the largest religious site ever built in ancient Egypt. Constructed over nearly 2,000 years by generations of pharaohs, Karnak was dedicated primarily to the powerful god Amun-Ra. Walk through the impressive Great Hypostyle Hall, featuring 134 towering sandstone columns, admire the sacred lake, massive obelisks, and beautifully carved walls that tell the stories of Egypt's glorious past. Your Egyptologist guide will bring this incredible ancient city to life, revealing the fascinating history, religious significance, and architectural achievements of one of the world's greatest archaeological treasures.
  2. Luxor Temple
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Continue your journey to the beautiful Luxor Temple, located on the east bank of the Nile in the heart of modern Luxor. Unlike many temples dedicated to gods, Luxor Temple was mainly connected with the rejuvenation of kingship and the annual Opet Festival.

    Explore its impressive entrance, the massive statues of King Ramses II, the elegant colonnades, and the well-preserved reliefs that showcase ancient Egyptian celebrations and royal ceremonies.

    The temple becomes especially magical as the sunlight highlights its magnificent columns and ancient carvings.

    After finishing your East Bank tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel or Nile Cruise.
Day 2: west bank Luxor
  1. Valley of the Kings
    2h · Admission ticket included
    After breakfast, your private vehicle and Egyptologist guide will pick you up to explore the legendary West Bank of Luxor, the ancient burial area of Egypt’s greatest pharaohs. Visit the world-famous Valley of the Kings, where New Kingdom pharaohs built their hidden rock-cut tombs thousands of years ago. Explore the beautifully decorated tombs with their colorful paintings, hieroglyphs, and scenes from ancient Egyptian beliefs about the afterlife.

    The valley contains more than 60 royal tombs, including the famous tomb of King Tutankhamun (entrance ticket available as an optional extra).
  2. Temple of Hatshepsut
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Continue to the spectacular Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, one of Egypt’s most unique monuments. Built into the cliffs of Deir El Bahari, this magnificent temple was created by one of Egypt’s most successful female rulers.

  3. Colossi of Memnon
    15m
    End your West Bank tour with a stop at the famous Colossi of Memnon, two enormous stone statues representing Pharaoh Amenhotep III.

    Standing for more than 3,000 years, these impressive statues once guarded the entrance of one of the largest temples ever built in Egypt. Enjoy great photo opportunities while learning about their fascinating history and legends.
