Our tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in Luxor to begin your tour exploring the grand temples of the East Bank:
Karnak Temple:
The Karnak Temple Complex is the largest ancient religious site in the world. Dedicated primarily to the triad of gods led by Amun-Ra, this massive complex was expanded by successive pharaohs over a span of more than two thousand years. Its undisputed centerpiece is the breathtaking Great Hypostyle Hall, featuring 134 towering columns covered in intricate reliefs. Karnak stands as the ultimate spiritual heart of ancient Thebes.
Luxor Temple:
Located in the heart of modern Luxor, this elegant temple was once connected to Karnak by the iconic Avenue of Sphinxes. Constructed mainly by Amenhotep III and Ramses II, it served as the venue for the sacred Opet Festival and royal renewal rituals. The temple is world-famous for its massive obelisk, colossal seated statues, and enchanting atmosphere, especially as the sun sets over the Nile.
A delicious lunch will be served at a local restaurant during the tour. At the end of the day, our tour guide will escort you back to your hotel in Luxor.
