What your day looks like

One relaxed day, from hotel pickup to drop-off.

Explore the captivating West Bank on a remarkable tour from Luxor or the Luxor River port via a comfortable minibus. Enrich your journey with engaging narratives from your knowledgeable guide, as you learn about the fascinating history of the Valley of the Kings, once the prominent city of Thebes and now Luxor. Customize your itinerary by expressing your specific interests, allowing for a flexible and tailored experience.

Marvel at the rugged mountains and make a brief stop at the Valley Visitor Center before exploring the mesmerizing rock-cut chambers and tunnels inside the burial sites. While guides cannot accompany you inside the cemeteries, they will provide essential insights before you venture in. Stroll down the vibrant, hieroglyph-adorned streets, and behold the painted rooms that once housed the great rulers of Egypt. Optionally, choose to enter the renowned King Tutankhamun's tomb for an additional fee.

Embark on a captivating visit to the Temple of Hatshepsut, marveling at the geometric columns meticulously carved into the cliffside. Learn about the temple's history and the remarkable life of Queen Hatshepsut, Egypt's first female ruler, while exploring the statues and hieroglyphs in the courtyards and on the balconies.

Pause to capture memorable shots of the Colossi of Memnon, towering statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, formerly gracing his now-lost tomb temple. Delve into the legends surrounding the statues and admire the Roman inscriptions etched into the stone.

Conclude your enriching excursion with a visit to the alabaster factory, where you can acquire intricately hand-cut pieces as souvenirs. At day's end, we will safely transport you back to your Luxor hotel or Nile cruise, ensuring a fulfilling and unforgettable adventure.
