- Temple of Medinat Habu - Your knowledgeable Reflections Tour Guide will commence your West Bank exploration by picking you up from your hotel or Nile Cruise in a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle. You will embark on a journey to explore three remarkable sites in Luxor.
The first stop on your tour will be the awe-inspiring Temple of Medinet Habu. This temple stands as one of the largest and best-preserved memorial temples in Luxor. It was erected in honor of King Ramses III, known as the “last great warrior pharaoh of the New Kingdom.” The temple’s construction was ordered by the king himself after his passing. Its walls are adorned with intricate depictions of King Ramses III’s military campaigns, with a particular focus on the famous Battle of Qadesh, where the king emerged victorious against the Hittites.

Valley of the Artisans (Deir el-Medina) - Following this, you will proceed to explore the remains of the ancient Workmen’s Village in Deir el-Medina. Founded during the reign of King Thutmose I of the 18th dynasty, this village thrived until the end of the 20th dynasty. It served as the residence of skilled artists, craftsmen, and laborers who were responsible for constructing and embellishing the royal tombs located in the Valley of the Kings. Hidden within the cliffs above the settlement are the workers’ tombs, which feature some of the most finely decorated private tombs in all of Thebes.
-
Tombs of the Nobles - Your final destination for the day will be the Tombs of the Nobles. This site boasts more than 400 tombs belonging to nobles who, like the royals, decorated their final resting places with cryptic passages from the Book of the Dead to guide them in the afterlife. The tombs also showcase wonderfully detailed scenes depicting the daily lives of these nobles.
After these enriching and captivating visits, your tour will conclude, and you will be transported back to your hotel or Nile Cruise, leaving you with a deep appreciation for Luxor’s rich history and cultural heritage.
