• Valley of the Kings - Begin your day with a convenient pickup from your Luxor hotel by a knowledgeable Egyptologist guide. Cross the Nile to the West Bank to start your adventure in the Theban Necropolis. The Valley of the Kings houses the tombs of over 60 New Kingdom pharaohs, including notable figures like Ramses II, Seti I, and the young king Tutankhamun.

Explore three selected tombs (included in your ticket), marveling at the vibrant wall paintings that illustrate scenes of the afterlife, sacred rituals, and the journey to eternity. For those wishing to visit the renowned Tomb of Tutankhamun, entry is available for an additional fee. Your guide will provide fascinating insights into burial customs, mummification, and the discovery of these remarkable sites.

• Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari - Next, proceed to the striking cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, where the magnificent Temple of Hatshepsut stands in harmony with the surrounding landscape. This exceptional structure was commissioned by Queen Hatshepsut, one of Egypt’s few and most accomplished female pharaohs.

Discover the temple’s three levels, linked by long ramps and adorned with exquisite reliefs depicting Hatshepsut’s divine birth and trading voyages to the land of Punt. Learn about how she depicted herself as a male ruler to legitimize her reign and how her legacy was nearly erased by her successors.

• Colossi of Memnon - On your return to Luxor, pause at the Colossi of Memnon, two enormous stone statues representing Pharaoh Amenhotep III. These statues once guarded the entrance of a grand mortuary temple that has largely disappeared over time. Standing over 20 meters tall, the Colossi have become iconic symbols of Luxor’s western bank.

As your tour concludes, enjoy the insights from your guide into the history, legends, and mysteries of this ancient land. You’ll be returned to your hotel with cherished memories of an extraordinary journey into the heart of Egypt’s golden age.
