On the 5-star Royal Ruby Nile cruise, have your final breakfast. Following your disembarkation, begin your fascinating west bank tours of Luxor by touring the Valley of the Kings, where the pharaohs were interred during the New Kingdom. The rulers of the 18th, 19th, and 20th dynasties were interred in rock-cut tombs hidden from would-be thieves, unlike the pharaohs of the ancient kingdom who favored being interred in enormous buildings known to the Greeks as "Pyramids."
Take a tour of the majestic Temple of Hatshepsut, which was constructed by her lover, the renowned architect Senmout. Queen Hatshepsut governed Egypt during the 18th dynasty, and her temple is the most massive of its sort in all of Egypt.
The Colossi of Memnon, two enormous sculptures of King Amenhotep III, are situated on the west bank of the Nile, south of the massive Theban necropolis and close to Medinet Habu. This is your next destination. Our assistance will subsequently come to an end upon your transfer to the airport, train station, or any other desired drop-off place inside Luxor.
