WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Get a comprehensive overview of Luxor’s East and West Banks by participating in an all-day private trip.
Early in the morning, you will be picked up from your accommodation in Hurghada and taken to Luxor.
Commence at the West Bank, where the Valley of the Kings is located. Take in the magnificence of its historic buildings, which served as the pharaohs’ and legends’ resting places. You’ll go to the well-known kings’ tombs.
After that, pay a visit to the temple constructed by Queen Hatshepsut, the daughter of Thutmosis I, the 18th Dynasty’s ruler of Egypt for roughly 20 years (1490–1469 B.C). The only female pharaoh to rule ancient Egypt was Hatshepsut.
Stop for a brief visit at the Colossi of Memnon, which is home to the remnants of Amenhotep III’s mortuary temple.
Next, proceed to Luxor’s East Bank.
Proceed with your trip to the world’s best example of a place of worship, the Karnak Temples. Karnak, which is dedicated to the god Amon, his wife Mut, and their son Khonsu, is still Egypt’s most visited site, right behind the Giza Pyramids.
The Temple of Luxor, which was started by Amenhotep III in the 18th Dynasty of the New Kingdom and finished by Ramses II in the 19th Dynasty, is the last site on your journey.
Following a full day of sightseeing in Luxor, you will return to Hurghada.
Drop off at your accommodation in Hurghada.
