Your full-day Luxor adventure begins with a convenient pickup from your hotel on the East Bank. West Bank Exploration: Start your journey at the Valley of the Kings, the legendary burial ground of ancient Egyptian pharaohs. Then, visit the stunning Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, an architectural masterpiece featuring three massive terraces that rise dramatically from the desert floor into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari. Next, you’ll stop at the Colossi of Memnon to see the impressive mortuary temple of Amenhotep III. Lunch Break: Enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant to recharge for the afternoon. East Bank Highlights: Continue to Karnak Temple, one of the greatest examples of worship in history. This vast temple complex was dedicated to the god Amun, his wife Mut, and their son Khonsu, representing the Theban triad. Listen as your guide explains the fascinating history of this extraordinary site. Conclude your tour at Luxor Temple, built by Amenhotep III during the 18th Dynasty and later completed by Ramses II in the modern kingdom. After a full day of exploration, you’ll be transferred back to your hotel.
