Explore Karnak Temple
Your first stop will be the awe-inspiring Karnak Temple, one of the largest and most impressive religious complexes of ancient Egypt.
Dedicated to the god Amun-Ra, this monumental temple features over 134 massive columns, towering obelisks, and massive hypostyle halls. The Great Hypostyle Hall is a highlight, where colossal columns are adorned with intricate reliefs depicting ancient rituals and legendary battles. Your guide will share the fascinating history of this site, revealing how it served as a center of power, worship, and political life for over 2,000 years.

After your visit to Karnak Temple, you’ll take a traditional felucca boat ride across the legendary Nile River. The serene boat ride offers the perfect opportunity to unwind and enjoy breathtaking views of the river.
Once you reach the West Bank, you’ll enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant overlooking the Nile, where you can savor authentic Egyptian cuisine in a picturesque setting.

Valley of the Kings
Next, you’ll visit the legendary Valley of the Kings, one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world. This ancient burial ground is home to the tombs of some of Egypt’s most powerful pharaohs, including Ramses II, Seti I, and Tutankhamun. With over 60 tombs carved deep into the desert cliffs, the valley is a true testament to ancient Egyptian engineering and beliefs.
You’ll have the option to visit the tomb of Tutankhamun (for an additional fee), which is among the best-preserved tombs, and your guide will walk you through the incredible artwork and rituals associated with the Egyptian afterlife.

Temple of Hatshepsut
Your next stop is the Temple of Hatshepsut, one of the most impressive architectural wonders in Egypt. Built for one of the few female pharaohs in history, Queen Hatshepsut, this stunning temple features a series of terraces and colonnades that blend seamlessly into the surrounding cliffs.
The temple walls tell the fascinating story of her reign, including her divine birth and her famous trade expeditions to the land of Punt. Your guide will share the history of Hatshepsut’s rise to power and explain the significance of this architectural marvel.

Colossi of Memnon
Your final stop of the day will be the Colossi of Memnon, two towering statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III. While the rest of his mortuary temple has eroded over time, these massive statues remain standing proudly.
The Colossi are famous for their mysterious sound at dawn, caused by the stone warming in the sun, which was once believed to be the voice of the king.
