A representative from Cairo Top Tours will meet you at the exit of Safaga Port to begin your Safaga Shore Excursion. The journey to Luxor will take approximately three hours. Your adventure starts with a visit to the Karnak Temple Complex, the world's largest religious site, where you can marvel at the grand hall of giant pillars.
Next, you'll cross the Nile to explore the West Bank of Luxor. Here, you'll see the Colossi of Memnon, two massive statues of Amenhotep III. Then, you'll visit the Valley of the Kings, the final resting place of 62 New Kingdom pharaohs, including Tutankhamun, Thutmose III, and Ramses II. These tombs, carved into the mountainside, are adorned with intricate paintings and once filled with treasures intended for the afterlife.
Your tour continues to the Temple of Hatshepsut, also known as El Deir El Bahary, dedicated to the first female pharaoh. After exploring these remarkable sites, your guide will escort you back to your cruise ship at Safaga Port, approximately 220 km away, concluding your Egypt tour.
