Day 1 – Transfer to Luxor, East Bank & Sunset Felucca Your journey begins at 5:00 AM, when our representative picks you up from your Marsa Alam accommodation for the comfortable 4-hour drive to Luxor.

Walk through grand courts, towering columns, and ancient sanctuaries that once hosted royal ceremonies. Continue to the vast Karnak Temple Complex, one of the largest religious sites in the world. Your Egyptologist guide will reveal the meanings behind its obelisks, sacred lake, and massive Hypostyle Hall. After your tour, check in at your 4-star hotel in Luxor to rest a bit before sunset. In the evening, your driver will pick you up for a peaceful felucca ride on the Nile, watching the colors of Luxor soften as the sun sets.
