Your journey begins with an early morning pick-up from your hotel in Hurghada, followed by a scenic drive through Egypt’s vast desert landscapes towards Luxor.
Upon arrival, your exploration starts with the West Bank of Luxor, home to some of Egypt’s most iconic ancient sites. First, visit the Valley of the Kings, the final resting place of some of Egypt’s most powerful pharaohs, including Ramses II and Tutankhamun.
Wander through the royal tombs, where you’ll be captivated by vivid hieroglyphs and intricate carvings depicting scenes from the Book of the Dead. For an unforgettable experience, choose to visit the Tomb of Tutankhamun, where the famous boy king’s tomb and stunning artifacts remain preserved in history.
Next, journey to the Temple of Hatshepsut, one of Egypt’s most extraordinary landmarks. This stunning terraced temple, carved into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, celebrates the reign of Hatshepsut, Egypt’s first female pharaoh. Admire the temple’s detailed reliefs depicting her divine birth and trade expeditions to the Land of Punt.
Afterward, visit the Colossi of Memnon, two towering statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, standing proudly at the entrance of the Memnon Colossi site. These statues have witnessed the passage of over 3,000 years of Egyptian history. After soaking in the history, enjoy a traditional Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant, featuring popular dishes like koshari or grilled kofta. In the afternoon, unwind with a Nile boat ride, drifting along the tranquil waters of the river while taking in stunning views of the surrounding landscapes.
As the day ends, check into your luxurious 5-star hotel in Luxor, where you can relax and enjoy top-notch amenities, including a pool, spa, and panoramic views of the ancient city’s landmarks.
