Tour Description

On arrival, your guide will meet you and take you to the West Bank of Luxor to visit the Valley of the Kings, where rock-cut tombs of New Kingdom pharaohs and nobles were excavated from the 16th to 11th century BC.

Next, visit the Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, an architectural monument of the Eighteenth Dynasty with three massive terraces rising from the desert floor into the cliffs of Deir al-Bahari.

Continue to Medinet Habu, the burial temple of Ramses III, known for its large entrance and reliefs depicting the pharaoh punishing prisoners.

Then see the Colossi of Memnon, statues that once guarded the mortuary temple of Amenhotep III, before stopping for lunch at a local restaurant.

After lunch, enjoy a felucca sail on the Nile River, a traditional wooden sailing boat offering scenic views and a chance to relax with a drink.

On the East Bank, visit Karnak Temple, the largest temple complex in Luxor dedicated to the gods Amun, Mut, and Khonsu, followed by Luxor Temple, built mainly by Amenhotep III and completed by Ramses II.

The tour concludes with a transfer to Luxor International Airport for your return flight to Cairo. Upon arrival, a representative will meet you and transfer you back to your hotel in Cairo or Giza.
