Description

Embark on a private full-day tour to Luxor from Cairo by flight and explore the timeless wonders of ancient Thebes, the capital of Egypt’s New Kingdom. This journey takes you through both the East and West Banks of Luxor, where you’ll uncover majestic temples, royal tombs, and breathtaking monuments that have stood for thousands of years. Start your day with a comfortable flight from Cairo to Luxor, where your private Egyptologist guide will take you on a historical adventure. Explore the Valley of the Kings, home to the tombs of powerful pharaohs. Visit the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, a masterpiece of ancient architecture, and stand before the towering Colossi of Memnon. On the East Bank, walk through the massive Karnak Temple, one of the largest religious complexes in the world, and marvel at its grand hypostyle hall and towering obelisks. Finally, visit the Luxor Temple, a beautifully preserved site built by multiple pharaohs, including Amenhotep III and Ramses II.

Awful planning with 3rd party tour operator which Viator have on their books

It won't happen. Communication about trip very poor so 3rd party tour operator cancelled 8pm the night before which we didn't know about, even though they had phone number and email address

Great tour!

Mohamed was my guide today. I preferred if my guide did all the explanation first and then let me roam around myself because I like my me-time. The driver is Mohamad is a very safe driver and is very caring.Good tour!

Fantastic guide

The whole experience was great and the arrangement was okay. Tour guide made the fantastic arrangement for us to visit the temple in the evening knowing that we took the train over night and needed to rest more
