After the breakfast on your Egypt Nile River cruise, start your Luxor day trips to the West Bank of the Nile. Your private driver and Egyptologist guide will accompany you to explore the Valley of the Kings, where 64 of the most well-known Egyptian pharaohs' tombs have so far been found. Of these, Tutankamen's tomb is the only one that has been found intact and contains thousands of gold and silver artifacts that have not been looted in antiquity.
The magnificent temple of Hatshepsut, also known as El Deir El Bahari, the second pharaoh woman of ancient Egypt, is another stop on the West Bank of Luxor tour. It is a remarkable monument made of limestone steps. At the conclusion of your Luxor West Bank Tours, you will also see the Colossi of Memnon, two enormous, monumental statues of Amenhotep III, the only remnants of his funerary temple. Navigate via Esna to Edfu. Lunch on board the cruise ship, followed by afternoon tea in free time. In Edfu, enjoy dinner and spend the night on your Nile cruise ship.
