Itinerary
Step into the royal tombs of ancient Egypt where pharaohs like Ramses and Tutankhamun were laid to rest. Your guide will help decode the richly decorated walls and hidden symbolism inside these remarkably preserved chambers. You'll visit three tombs — each one offering a different glimpse into Egypt’s spiritual beliefs and artistry.
Marvel at this stunning mortuary temple built for Egypt’s most powerful female pharaoh. Carved directly into limestone cliffs, Hatshepsut’s temple features elegant colonnades, statues, and terraces. Your guide will share the fascinating story of how she defied tradition to rule Egypt in a man’s world.
Pause for photos at these two towering statues that once guarded the entrance to Amenhotep III’s temple. Although weathered by time, the 18-meter-tall figures still stand proudly against the desert backdrop — a striking reminder of Egypt’s grandeur.
Medinet Habu is a massive, well-preserved ancient Egyptian mortuary temple complex located on the West Bank of Luxor, primarily dedicated to Pharaoh Ramesses III (20th Dynasty). Built in the 12th century BCE, it is renowned for its detailed reliefs depicting military victories, including the defeat of the "Sea Peoples," and its fortified, castle-like architecture.
