Day Trip to Luxor
Description
We'll pick you up from your hotel in Marsa Alam, leaving behind the breathtaking shores of the Red Sea. Although the journey by minibus spans approximately five hours, the fascinating experiences awaiting you make it truly worthwhile.
Our adventure begins with a visit to the Valley of the Kings, a sacred burial ground for pharaohs and nobles. You'll have the unique opportunity to explore the insides of three of these magnificent tombs, a true spectacle to behold.
Right nearby, we'll uncover the secrets of Queen-Pharaoh Hatshepsut as we explore her stunning funerary temple, painstakingly carved into the rock, and learn about the intriguing history of this powerful figure.
Next, you'll marvel at the Colossi of Memnon, two colossal statues of Amenophis III, proudly standing at 14 meters (46 feet) tall for over 3,400 years.
Our journey continues as we venture to the grand Karnak Temple, where we'll delve into the tales of the pharaohs who commissioned these monumental structures. We'll discuss the significance of Egyptian mythology within these architectural wonders.
Then, it'll be time for a delicious local lunch featuring a tasty spread of meat, sautéed vegetables, rice, and fresh fruit.
After a rewarding day of exploration, we'll embark on the journey back to Marsa Alam. Our minibus will drop you off back at your hotel, concluding this 11-hour adventure in the heart of Ancient Egypt.
