Itinerary
Explore the legendary Valley of the Kings, the royal burial ground of Egypt’s New Kingdom pharaohs located on the west bank of the Nile near Luxor. Hidden within the desert mountains, this remarkable archaeological site contains more than 60 tombs carved deep into the rock and decorated with vibrant wall paintings and ancient hieroglyphs that illustrate the journey to the afterlife. The valley is also famous for the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun in 1922. Visiting the Valley of the Kings offers a fascinating insight into the power, beliefs, and artistic achievements of ancient Egyptian civilization.
Visit the magnificent Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, one of the most impressive temples in Egypt. Built for the powerful female pharaoh Hatshepsut, this unique temple is located on the west bank of the Nile near Luxor and is famous for its striking terraces carved into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari. The temple showcases beautiful reliefs and inscriptions that tell the story of Hatshepsut’s reign, including her famous trading expedition to the Land of Punt. Surrounded by dramatic desert landscapes, the temple stands as a remarkable example of ancient Egyptian architecture and one of the most iconic historical sites in Luxor.
Visit the impressive Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues that have stood on the west bank of the Nile for more than 3,400 years near Luxor. These towering statues represent the powerful pharaoh Amenhotep III and once guarded the entrance to his vast mortuary temple. Rising about 18 meters (60 feet) high, the Colossi of Memnon are among the most photographed landmarks in Luxor. Despite centuries of floods and earthquakes, the statues remain an impressive reminder of the grandeur of ancient Egypt and offer visitors a fascinating glimpse into the country’s rich history and architectural achievements.
Discover the magnificent Karnak Temple Complex, one of the largest and most impressive religious sites ever built in the ancient world. Located in Luxor, this vast temple complex was developed over more than 2,000 years by successive pharaohs. Dedicated mainly to the god Amun, Karnak features towering pylons, massive columns, and beautifully carved reliefs. Visitors can explore the famous Great Hypostyle Hall with its forest of gigantic columns and walk along the sacred avenue once used in ancient religious processions. Karnak Temple stands today as one of Egypt’s most extraordinary archaeological treasures and a symbol of ancient Egyptian power and devotion.

I did the day trip to Luxor with a friend and can recommend it to everyone. The ride in the private car with Ahmed is much more pleasant than sitting in a bus, and two breaks are also included along the way. The pickup time was at 4 AM, and our driver was already there much earlier. On site, Angie guided us through all of Luxor, and our personal highlight was an additional boat ride on the Nile. So you really get to see everything; the driver Ahmed always waited for us in the car.

We had the good fortune of having Ahmed (driver) & Mena (guide) for private Luxor Tour. To start things off, we were staying in Marsa Alam which is some distance from Luxor and Ahmed arrived promptly, directly from Luxor, with a smile on his face at our hotel reception at the wholesome hour of 3am for our outward journey to Luxor. Ahmed was incredibly courteous and clearly very well experienced at navigating Egypts roads, which to those that have experienced Egyptian roads before, will know, that they can be very dangerous by western standards, with an experienced captain at the helm, like Ahmed we felt safe and very confident we would arrive in safety. On the 5 hour journey we had plenty of stops to break up the journey and even a few bespoke extra stops on request for an elderly guest in our group. We picked up Mena on our way to the valley of the kings and immediately we were greeted with a fantastic introduction to Egypts rich and ancient history. As someone with a fascination of ancient Egypt from a very young age I came to the tour thinking I knew all of the important parts, I couldn’t have been more wrong! Mena introduced me to facts and information that YouTube videos and countless classroom lessons couldn’t hope to rival, which is local knowledge. There are so many aspects I’d like to cover but tripadvisor limits the characters. All I will say is if you are looking for a private tour, with an excellent itinerary, you have a genuine thirst for knowledge and learning all the while being transported by an experienced driver then you can’t go wrong with Mena & Ahmed. Make sure you bring plenty of Euros or USD’s to give these gentlemen a well deserved tip! By the end of the tour you will feel like the price you paid could have been double and you still would have thought is incredible value.

Great fully day experience with my family. Safe driving and good service by our driver Ahmed. We were thoroughly impressed with our guide and Egyptologist Sayed Gamal who explained everything in detail and also made sure our kids understood the meaning of the various sites.

We have an amazing experience. Our driver Omar arrived promptly at our airport to pick us up and dropped us off after the tour ended. He drove diligently and was very experienced. Our tour guide, Angie, had vast knowledge of Egyptian history as well as regional history and culture. She thoroughly explained the importance and history of each location we visited in great detail. She was very nice and designed adapted the tour itinerary to our needs. We would definitely recommend this tour and the tour guide to other people. Thank you for a lovely experience.

Great overall experience. Prompt communication in advance to confirm details and timings. Our driver, Ahmed, was perfectly on time, the vehicle was clean and modern and although the drive was long, the roads were quiet. We met our guide, Sayed Gamal, in Luxor and went to Karnak first. Sayed already had tickets for us for each of the places we visited and entry was very smooth. Sayed was very knowledgeable and passionate about the history which really brought the places to life. We opted for the optional river boat crossing to the West Bank as we’d already spent a fair amount of time driving. Lunch was pleasant at a restaurant by the Nile and wherever we went Ahmed was always there waiting to take us to the next location so never any waiting around. Had a really good day visiting the temples and tombs, really fascinating and inspiring. We were safely returned to our hotel by Ahmed and although a long day, it was really worth it. Thoroughly recommend. Suggest maybe ask your hotel for a packed breakfast for the journey as it is an early start.

Although it was a 4am start, it was worth it! Communication was great, they kept us informed about what was happening and answered any queries. Our driver, Ahmed, was on time, friendly and a safe driver for the day and looked after us very well - and was super easy to chat with. Our guide, Sayed Gamal, was on time, friendly, easy to talk to and very knowledgeable. He brought the history to life as we visited the various sites and was obviously very knowledgeable. He ensured we visited all the places we hoped to. We also went on a boat across the Nile, which was a lovely cool break on a warm day. Ahmed made sure we always had water available when we visited the various sites and when we left the air-conditioned minibus. Lunch was included, and there was plenty to eat, additional soft drinks were at the going rate too. We were delivered safely back to the hotel before dinner finished. A great trip, highly recommend if you don't have time to spend more than a day in Luxor, and would highly recommend Ahmed and Sayed who made it super easy and a total pleasure. It's encouraged us to return to do Aswan and Cairo too,as there is so much to see.

Good communication with the organization a few days before the experience, punctual arrival for the PK at the hotel, car in good condition and were kind to make up for a trip with a driver not too experienced. The guides speak a macaronic English but in Egypt a bit always like this. There's no way not to be taken to their little shops that they agree with and the visits are a bit hasty But you also have to consider that the day is really very long experience so basically very positive

We did a great experience in our daily trip to Luxor. The private van was clean and new. Two drivers shared the long drive in order to provide the highest safety during the trip. Sayed has been an excellent guide during the whole day in Luxor, providing all the relevant information about the historical spots of the site, helping with the tickets in the sites and with good suggestions about the tombs to visit. Long day but a must to see if you are in Marsa Alam.
