Our tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in Luxor to begin your tour to the world-famous West Bank:
Valley of the Kings:
The Valley of the Kings served as the royal burial ground for the Pharaohs of the New Kingdom. Carved deep into the desert rocks, these magnificent tombs belong to great rulers such as Tutankhamun, Ramses II, and Seti I. Their walls are adorned with vivid scenes and sacred texts depicting the pharaoh’s journey into the afterlife. Visiting the Valley of the Kings offers a breathtaking glimpse into ancient Egyptian beliefs.
Temple of Hatshepsut (Deir el-Bahari):
The Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut is one of the most elegant architectural masterpieces of Ancient Egypt. Designed with rising terraced colonnades that seamlessly blend into the towering limestone cliffs behind it, the temple tells the story of her legendary reign and the famous trade expedition to the Land of Punt.
Colossi of Memnon:
The Colossi of Memnon are two massive 18-meter-tall stone statues representing Pharaoh Amenhotep III. Originally built to guard the entrance of his grand mortuary temple, they were famous in antiquity for a natural phenomenon where one statue seemed to “sing” at sunrise. Today, they stand as iconic guardians of Luxor’s West Bank.
Enjoy a delicious lunch 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.
