Enjoy breakfast onboard the Nile Cruise and commence the Luxor sightseeing tours. Begin with a visit to the West Bank of Luxor, starting at the Valley of the Kings, where 64 tombs of Egypt's most prominent pharaohs have been unearthed, including the intact tomb of Tutankhamen, the sole one found untouched in the ancient city of Thebes, Luxor. Next, explore the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, also known as El Deir El Bahari Temple, a remarkable limestone monument in Egypt constructed by the renowned architect Senmout for the female pharaoh of ancient Egypt.
Continue the Luxor tours to see the Colossi of Memnon, two imposing statues built for Pharaoh Amenophis III, the only remnants from his mortuary temple near the Valley of the Kings in Luxor. Then, embark on Luxor's east bank tours to visit the two magnificent temples. First, explore Karnak Temple, Egypt's largest temple complex, where you can enter the impressive Great Hypostyle Hall—a vast forest of massive pillars—erected during the reigns of King Ramses II and Seti I. Proceed to the Temple of Luxor, linked to Karnak Temple by an avenue of sphinxes on both sides, dedicated to the ancient Egyptian god Amun Ra and adorned with renowned depictions of Pharaoh Ramses II.
Conclude your tour with a transfer to Luxor Airport or the train terminal for your departure after disembarking from the Nile cruise boat.
