After enjoying a healthy breakfast on board your Nile River cruise, your private driver and Egyptologist guide will accompany you on a Luxor day tour to the Luxor West Bank. Your first stop will be the Valley of the Kings, where you'll explore the tombs of some of ancient Egypt's most famous pharaohs, including the tomb of Tutankhamun, which was discovered intact and contained thousands of gold and silver items.
Next, you'll visit the majestic Temple of Hatshepsut, also known as the Temple of El Deir El Bahari, which is an extraordinary monument in Egypt consisting of a series of steps carved into limestone. You'll also see the Colossi of Memnon, two large statues of Amenhotep III that are all that remain of his mortuary temple.
After your tour, you'll sail to Edfu, passing through Esna while enjoying lunch aboard the cruise ship. You'll have free time in the afternoon to relax and enjoy afternoon tea before having dinner and spending the night aboard your luxurious Nile cruise vessel in Edfu.
With meals included and a knowledgeable guide to lead you through the ancient wonders of Luxor's West Bank, you'll have an unforgettable experience on your Egypt Nile River cruise.
