Itinerary
Luxor Tour from Safaga Port – Journey of Egypt's Timeless Wonders
Morning Departure from Safaga Port
You will begin with an early morning pickup from Safaga Port to start your adventure.
The pickup will be handled by a private, air-conditioned car. The journey to Luxor is memorable because it offers panoramic views of the Egyptian landscape, from desert terrain to the fertile lands of the Nile Valley, on which this entire exploration is based, to the one living ancient city of Egypt.
East Bank: Karnak Temple
Karnak Temple, your very first stop after entering Luxor, is one of the largest complexes of ancient Egyptian worship. Walk the Avenue of the Sphinxes; enter and behold one of the largest halls in the world, the Great Hypostyle Hall; eavesdrop on the stories of sacred obelisks, sharing tales of intimidating pharaohs and gods. Each stone out here speaks history inscribed with tales of victoriously swinging swords, offering gifts to temples, and divine affairs of rulers with gods.
West Bank: Valley of the Kings
Cross to the western shore of the Nile River and find yourself in the fabled Valley of the Kings, burial grounds for Egypt's great pharaohs. Inspect their burial chambers of richly decorated walls emblazoned with meticulously incised figures and bright panels of paintings illustrating the beliefs concerning the passage of the deceased into the afterlife. Worthy of noticing are the tombs' well-described walls and plans of the chambers painting old practices of burial.
The Magnificent Temple of Queen Hatshepsut
The next place to be visited should be the alluring Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, which magnificently lies within a pocket of steep rock cliffs at Deir el-Bahari. It represents the grandeur of the most powerful woman ruler of Egypt and is a shrine to her glory. Here you can examine the terraces, the statues, and inscriptions glorifying her achievements.
The Colossi of Memnon – Witnesses of the Days of Old
Before concluding any tour, an orientation visit to the Colossi of Memnon, two gigantic statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, would have observed the changes in the Theban landscape for over three thousand years. That impression continues to resonate, even less so in present day, owing to the ravages of time- an iconic tribute to the grandeur of antiquity.
Going Back to Safaga Port
As the day comes to an end, relax and assure your ride to Safaga Port as you take along incredible memories of the timeless wonders of Luxor.
