Highlights
  • Dendera Temple Complex - Our guide will pick you up from your hotel, and you’ll drive for about an hour. Upon arrival in Dendera, you’ll begin your tour by visiting the Dendera complex, which was built over various periods, including the Middle Kingdom, the Ptolemaic era, and the Roman provincial period.

  • Tombs of the Nobles - Luxor - Next, you’ll drive back to visit the Valley of the Nobles, a collection of tombs in Luxor belonging to nobles such as Ramose, Senniffer, Menna, and over 400 other Theban nobles. These tombs, marked by numbers, feature beautifully carved scenes. Nestled in the foothills opposite the Ramesseum, there are more than 400 tombs.

  • Valley of the Artisans (Deir el-Medina) - You’ll then proceed to visit the Valley of the Artisans, where the workmen responsible for constructing the royal tombs in the Valley of the Kings lived during the 18th, 19th, and 20th Dynasties of the New Kingdom period (1550-1080 BC). You’ll enjoy exploring the ruins of the village settlement, the Ptolemaic temple dedicated to the goddesses Hathor and Maat, which consists of a small building within a mud-brick enclosure wall, and two of the finest decorated tombs of Sennedjem and Inherkau.

  • Colossi of Memnon - A photo stop in front of the gigantic statues of Memnon.

  • Temple of Medinat Habu - Continue to visit the Medinat Habu temple of King Ramses III, the last great warrior pharaoh of the New Kingdom (1550-1080 BC). The temple is one of the best-preserved memorial temples of the New Kingdom, decorated with military scenes and texts illustrating the king’s victories, as well as the rituals performed and festivals celebrated. A royal palace was attached to the temple’s open forecourt, while priests’ dwellings and administrative units lay on either side of the temple. After finishing, you will be transferred back to your hotel or Nile cruise in Luxor.
