Description

2 Days Luxor Tour with Hotel and Nile Boat from Sahl Hasheesh
D / 1
Journey from Sahl Hasheesh to Luxor and Discovery of Ancient Wonders

Begin your exceptional 2-day private tour from Sahl Hasheesh with an early morning pick-up from your hotel. Settle into a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle as you embark on a scenic journey through Egypt’s serene desert landscapes. The vast golden dunes and the soft hues of the sunrise create a picturesque backdrop as you travel towards Luxor, the ancient city of Thebes, which served as the glorious capital during Egypt’s New Kingdom.

 

Upon arrival, your first stop will be the Valley of the Kings, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Egypt’s most famous archaeological sites. This sacred necropolis, nestled in the cliffs of the Theban Mountains, served as the final resting place for some of the most powerful pharaohs in Egyptian history, including Ramses IISeti I, and the boy king Tutankhamun. As you explore the elaborately decorated tombs, marvel at the vibrant wall paintings and intricate reliefs that depict the pharaohs’ journey into the afterlife, providing a rare insight into ancient Egyptian beliefs and rituals. For an exclusive experience, opt to visit the Tomb of Tutankhamun, where the treasures of the famous king were discovered undisturbed for centuries.

 

Next, visit the magnificent Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari, an architectural masterpiece built into the base of dramatic limestone cliffs. This three-tiered temple, dedicated to the powerful female pharaoh Hatshepsut, is renowned for its colonnaded terraces, beautifully detailed reliefs, and statues that depict her divine birth and reign. Learn from your guide about Hatshepsut’s remarkable achievements, including her successful trade missions and architectural innovations.

 

Afterward, take a moment to appreciate the Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues of Amenhotep III, which have stood sentinel for over 3,400 years. These monumental statues are famous for the mysterious “singing” sounds they made at dawn in ancient times. After a day of exploration, enjoy a traditional Egyptian lunch at a carefully selected local restaurant, where you can savor a variety of delicious dishes such as koshari, falafel, and freshly baked Egyptian bread.

 

If you’re looking for a moment of relaxation, consider an optional Nile River cruise, where you can float along the world’s longest river, enjoying serene views of the palm-fringed banks and the daily life of Luxor’s residents.

 

In the evening, check into a luxurious 5-star hotel where you can unwind in your elegant room, take a refreshing swim in the pool, or enjoy the hotel’s world-class amenities. Spend your evening at leisure, perhaps enjoying a fine dinner or a drink in the lounge, preparing for the next day’s adventure.

Explore Luxor’s East Bank and Return to Sahl Hasheesh

Start your second day with a delightful breakfast at your hotel, ensuring you’re fueled up for another day of discovery.

 

Your first stop will be the Karnak Temple Complex, one of Egypt’s most impressive and expansive religious sites. Karnak, spanning over 100 hectares, was the largest religious structure ever built, dedicated primarily to the god Amun-Ra and serving as a center of worship for more than two millennia. Wander through the iconic Hypostyle Hall, a vast room with 134 colossal columns covered in hieroglyphic inscriptions and reliefs.

 

The sight of the towering columns, some reaching up to 21 meters in height, is truly awe-inspiring. Admire the obelisk erected by Queen Hatshepsut and discover the sacred Sacred Lake, which was once used for the purification rituals of priests. Explore the numerous chapels, pylons, and statues scattered across the complex, each offering a glimpse into the spiritual practices and grandeur of ancient Egypt.

 

Afterward, head to the remarkable Luxor Temple, located in the heart of the modern city. This stunning temple was originally built by Amenhotep III and later expanded by Ramses II, with contributions from Roman emperors. Walk along the restored Avenue of Sphinxes, a 2.7-kilometer path once lined with sphinx statues, which linked Luxor Temple to Karnak Temple in ancient times. Inside the temple, marvel at the colossal statues of Ramses II, the intricately carved pylons, and beautifully preserved reliefs that depict scenes of religious ceremonies and royal victories.

 

After a morning of exploration, enjoy another delicious Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant, where you can indulge in more traditional dishes and flavors of the region. Following lunch, you will have some free time to shop for souvenirs such as handcrafted jewelry, papyrus paintings, alabaster vases, and other traditional Egyptian crafts that make for perfect mementos of your journey. Alternatively, you can take more time to capture stunning photographs of the incredible monuments and landscapes of Luxor.

 

As the day draws to a close, begin your comfortable return journey to Sahl Hasheesh, reflecting on the unforgettable experiences and awe-inspiring discoveries you’ve made in the heart of ancient Egypt. This expertly curated tour provides the perfect combination of cultural exploration, historical insight, and luxurious relaxation, ensuring that your 2-day adventure through Luxor is one you will cherish forever.
