2-Day Private Trip to the Valley of the Kings from Soma Bay
D/1
Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut & Colossi of Memnon
Your adventure begins with a private transfer from your hotel in Soma Bay to Luxor, a scenic 4-hour drive through the Egyptian desert and the Nile River Valley.
The drive offers picturesque views of Egypt’s vast landscapes and historic sites. Once in Luxor, meet your professional Egyptologist guide, who will accompany you on your journey through ancient Egypt’s most remarkable sites.
Your first destination is the Valley of the Kings, the legendary burial ground of Egypt’s most famous pharaohs, including the tombs of Tutankhamun, Ramses II, and Seti I.
Walk through the tombs and admire the vibrant wall paintings and intricate hieroglyphs. Your guide will provide fascinating insights into the royal tombs, including the mysterious tomb of the boy-king Tutankhamun.
Continue your journey to the Temple of Hatshepsut, a stunning monument built in honor of Egypt’s first female pharaoh.
This terraced temple, nestled against the cliffs at Deir el-Bahari, showcases impressive architectural feats and tells the story of Queen Hatshepsut’s reign, including her successful trade expeditions.
Next, visit the Colossi of Memnon, two monumental statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III.
Standing 18 meters tall, these statues were once the grand guardians of a massive mortuary temple. Capture stunning photos while reflecting on their historical significance.
After exploring the ancient sites, enjoy a traditional Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant.
The lunch menu includes popular Egyptian dishes such as Koshari, Falafel, Moussaka, and Fattah. This break gives you time to relax and refuel before continuing your journey.
After your day of exploration, check in to your hotel in Luxor, where you can unwind and enjoy a peaceful evening, reflecting on the incredible experiences of the day.

Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple & Return to Soma Bay
Following a restful breakfast, begin your second day of exploration with a visit to the awe-inspiring Karnak Temple, one of the largest religious complexes in the world.
Dedicated to Amun-Ra, the chief god of ancient Egypt, the temple spans over 100 hectares of temples, pylons, and sacred sites. Explore the famous Hypostyle Hall, with its 134 towering columns, and learn about the significance of the temple in ancient Egyptian worship and royal ceremonies.
Next, visit the nearby Luxor Temple, located in the heart of modern Luxor.
Dedicated to the Theban Triad (Amun, Mut, and Khonsu), this magnificent temple was used for royal ceremonies and festivals.
Admire the majestic columns, the towering obelisk of Ramses II, and the statues of great pharaohs who contributed to the temple’s construction.
