Luxor
Your unforgettable journey begins with a convenient pickup from your hotel or Nile cruise in Luxor in a modern, air-conditioned vehicle. Cross the Nile River to the West Bank of Luxor, home to the royal tombs and mortuary temples of the pharaohs.
30 minutes
2
Valley of the Kings
Your first stop is the legendary Valley of the Kings, the burial site of Egypt’s greatest rulers from the New Kingdom. Step inside three beautifully decorated royal tombs, adorned with vivid hieroglyphs and scenes from the afterlife. Your guide will reveal the stories behind these ancient treasures, explaining the symbolism and rituals of ancient Egyptian funerary practices.
2 hours

Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari
Next, visit the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, one of the most impressive architectural achievements of ancient Egypt. Carved directly into the limestone cliffs at Deir el-Bahari, this magnificent temple honors Egypt’s first female pharaoh. Learn about Hatshepsut’s reign, her achievements, and how she portrayed herself as both a woman and a king.

Colossi of Memnon
Before leaving the West Bank, stop by the Colossi of Memnon, two colossal stone statues that once guarded the entrance to Amenhotep III’s temple. These towering figures provide a perfect photo opportunity with a breathtaking desert backdrop.
30 minutes
5
Temple of Karnak
Cross back to the East Bank and continue to the awe-inspiring Karnak Temple Complex, the largest religious site ever built in ancient Egypt. Walk through the Avenue of Ram-Headed Sphinxes and marvel at the Great Hypostyle Hall, with its 134 towering columns. Your guide will explain the significance of each temple within the complex, dedicated mainly to the Theban triad: Amun, Mut, and Khonsu.
Admire the sacred lake, obelisks, and shrines built by generations of pharaohs, each adding their mark over a period of 2,000 years. Karnak’s scale and grandeur make it one of the most remarkable archaeological sites in the world.

Luxor Temple
