Your private tour begins with pickup from your hotel or cruise in Luxor by a professional driver and an Egyptologist guide. Travel in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle as you head toward the West Bank.

Your first stop is the legendary Valley of the Kings, the royal burial ground of Egypt’s New Kingdom pharaohs. Enter beautifully decorated tombs carved deep into the desert cliffs and learn about ancient funerary beliefs and royal burial traditions.

Continue to the breathtaking Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, one of Egypt’s most unique architectural masterpieces. Built into the limestone cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, this temple tells the story of one of Egypt’s most powerful female rulers.

Next, stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues that once guarded the entrance to a long-lost mortuary temple of Amenhotep III. Take time for photos and a historical explanation from your guide.

Cross to the East Bank After completing the West Bank tour, cross the Nile River toward the East Bank of Luxor.

Visit the world-famous Karnak Temple Complex, the largest religious site ever built. Walk through towering columns, sacred lakes, and ancient chapels dedicated to Amun-Ra and other deities. Your guide will explain the evolution of this vast temple over 2,000 years of construction.

Continue to the elegant Luxor Temple, located in the heart of the modern city. Unlike Karnak, this temple reflects Roman, Pharaonic, and Islamic influences, offering a unique historical blend. Explore its statues, courtyards, and grand avenue of sphinxes.

After completing the sightseeing program, you will be transferred back to your hotel or cruise in Luxor, marking the end of your full-day private tour.
