After enjoying a delectable breakfast at your hotel, you will be chauffeured to Luxor in a private vehicle, accompanied by your licensed tour guide, for an unforgettable exploration of Luxor's east and west banks.
Our journey commences with the east bank of Luxor, where we will delve into the magnificent Karnak Temple complex. This awe-inspiring temple, a testament to the devotion of multiple kings from different dynasties, served as the epicenter of religion during the golden age of ancient Egypt. At that time, Egypt was a formidable kingdom, extending its influence as far as Mesopotamia and Libya.
Our Luxor excursions then lead us to the royal tombs nestled in the Valley of the Kings. This sacred burial ground was the final resting place for many of Egypt's rulers during the New Kingdom. You will have the privilege of exploring three tombs, and it gained worldwide fame following the discovery of King Tutankhamun's tomb, brimming with intact golden treasures, in 1902.
We also visit the Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, a testament to her reign and built under the supervision of her devoted architect, Senmout. This temple is dedicated to Queen Hatshepsut herself and honors the trinity of Amun. Inside, the divine birth story of her majesty is vividly depicted. Our Luxor sightseeing tour continues as we encounter the colossal statues of King Amenhotep III, who initiated the construction of the Temple of Luxor.
Following a satisfying lunch, we transfer you to your hotel in Luxor for check-in, where you will spend the night.
