Complete Guided Tour of Luxor
Explore Ancient Egypt: Complete Luxor Tour
At the designated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel or boat in Luxor, setting the stage for a day of exploration along the banks of the Nile River.
Our first destination is the Temple of Luxor, a significant site in ancient Thebes. This UNESCO World Heritage Site boasts captivating features such as the Avenue of the Sphinxes, a mesmerizing forest of colonnades, and imposing sculptures of Egyptian pharaohs, including Ramses II.
Next, we'll venture to Karnak, the largest temple in Ancient Egypt. Within this monumental complex, home to the impressive sanctuary of Amun, we'll marvel at the details adorning the obelisks of Thutmose I and Hatshepsut. Our journey continues into the sacred space of the hypostyle hall.
Having explored Karnak, we'll cross the Nile to reach the Valley of the Kings. Here, the tombs of pharaohs like Tutankhamun and Ramses II reveal ancient funeral rites. We'll also visit the Valley of the Queens, exploring the burial sites of princesses and pharaohs' wives from the New Empire.
Our tour proceeds to the Temple of Hatshepsut, which is hailed as "the sublime of the sublime." This grand monument pays homage to the only woman to rule Egypt during the 18th Dynasty, a pinnacle period in Pharaonic civilization. Our journey concludes at the Colossi of Memnon, where we'll admire the colossal statues representing Amenhotep III.
After 7.5 hours of captivating exploration, we'll return to your hotel or boat in Luxor.
