Tour Plan
After breakfast, you will be met by our tour guide to pick you up from your accommodation.
Upon reaching the western bank, you will start the unforgettable day by visiting the Valley of the Kings, which is a necropolis located in the desert west of Luxor. It is home to the tombs of many of the pharaohs of ancient Egypt, including Tutankhamun. The tombs are decorated with elaborate paintings and hieroglyphs, and they offer a fascinating glimpse into the afterlife beliefs of the ancient Egyptians.
The second stop will be at the Temple of Hatshepsut, which is a mortuary temple dedicated to the queen Hatshepsut. It is located on a cliff overlooking the Nile River, and it is known for its beautiful colonnades and gardens.
The last stop will be in front of the Colossi of Memnon, the two giant statues of the pharaoh Amenhotep III. They are located on the east bank of the Nile River, and they are a popular tourist attraction.
Once the tours come to an end, you will be transferred back to your accommodation.
