After a restful night, you’ll enjoy a hearty breakfast at your hotel before embarking on the second day of your exploration.

Your private guide will take you to the Valley of the Kings, the final resting place of many Pharaohs, including Ramses II and the boy king Tutankhamun. The valley is home to richly decorated tombs, where the tombs of the Pharaohs were filled with treasures and everything they would need for the afterlife. Here, you will have the opportunity to visit the tomb of Tutankhamun, which was discovered in 1922 and is famous for its gold treasures, including the iconic golden mask.

Next, you will visit the Hatshepsut Temple, one of the most beautifully preserved temples of Ancient Egypt. Built in honor of Queen Hatshepsut, the only female Pharaoh, this impressive structure is carved into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari. The temple’s unique architectural design, with its wide terraces and symmetrical ramps, is a marvel of ancient engineering. As you walk through the temple, you will learn about Hatshepsut’s reign and the grandeur of her temple, which was dedicated to the god Amun.

Afterward, you’ll visit the Colossi of Memnon, two enormous statues made from quartzite sandstone, which once guarded the entrance to the mortuary temple of Amenhotep III. These towering statues stand as silent witnesses to the ancient past and are among the most photographed sites in Egypt.

For lunch, enjoy another delicious meal in Luxor, where you’ll have the chance to sample more Egyptian cuisine before continuing your exploration.

Finally, after a memorable day of discovering the rich history of Luxor, you will be driven back to your hotel in Soma Bay, concluding your private two-day exploration of Luxor’s cultural heritage and historical landmarks.
