This full-day tour in Luxor offers a perfect balance between exploration, history, and comfort — taking you deep into the heart of ancient Egypt on both sides of the Nile.
Your journey begins with a convenient pickup from your hotel or cruise ship in Luxor. Cross the Nile to the West Bank, where you’ll start at the legendary Valley of the Kings, the burial site of Egypt’s greatest pharaohs. With the guidance of a professional Egyptologist, you’ll enter three fascinating tombs, richly decorated with symbolic scenes from the afterlife.
Next, visit the unique and elegant Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, one of the most beautiful and well-preserved temples in Egypt, built into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari. Before leaving the West Bank, stop to admire the imposing Colossi of Memnon, two colossal statues that once guarded a long-lost mortuary temple.
Enjoy a delicious Egyptian lunch at a clean and authentic local restaurant — a perfect time to relax and recharge.
In the afternoon, head to the East Bank to explore the vast and awe-inspiring Karnak Temple Complex. Walk through the massive Hypostyle Hall, stand beneath towering columns, and feel the power of ancient rituals still echoing in the stone.
Finally, your guide and driver will take you back to your hotel or cruise ship, with your camera full of memories and your heart full of wonder.
