Your guide will meet you at the reception of your hotel to commence your Luxor day tour to start your day on the West Bank, including:
Valley of the Kings: Step into history as you visit the royal tombs of the Pharaohs, beautifully decorated with colorful hieroglyphs that have survived thousands of years.
Temple of Hatshepsut: Admire the stunning terraced temple of Egypt’s only female pharaoh, carved elegantly into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari.
On your way back from the West Bank temples, you’ll come across the Colossi of Memnon, two massive statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, standing 18 meters high. Once part of his mortuary temple, they were believed by the ancient Greeks to sing at sunrise, giving them the legendary name “Memnon.”
After that, you will transfer to have your lunch at a local restaurant, then head to visit the East Bank, which includes:
Karnak Temple: Wander through the colossal columns and sacred halls of this magnificent complex dedicated to the god Amun.
Luxor Temple: End your day with the magical atmosphere of Luxor Temple, beautifully illuminated at night, a breathtaking reminder of Egypt’s golden past.
