Full description

Meet your Egyptologist tour guide at your accommodation and start your journey in an air-conditioned vehicle. Relax in comfort as you travel to explore the most important historical monuments in Luxor.

Choose between a tour of both the East and West banks, or visit only one side of the Nile according to your preferences. On the West bank, discover the Valley of Kings where you will visit the remarkable tombs and last resting place of the Kings Ramsses III, Ramsses VI, and Mrenptah.

If you've booked an entrance to the tomb of Tutankhamun (available as an add-on), you'll then see the most iconic Egyptian tomb known world-wide.

Then, proceed to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, dedicated to a female ruler who reigned over Egypt for 20 years, bringing the country wealth and peace. See the mortuary temple of Amenhotep III at the Colossi of Memnon, then stop for lunch at a local restaurant. On the East bank, witness the Complex of Karnak, which might be the largest temple in the world. You have one more stop before you leave the place: the magnificent Luxor Temple, a large ancient Egyptian temple which you will have time to explore.

The tour company did a horrendous job communicating our pickup point to the guide/driver accurately, which led to a delayed start and a bit of frustration, but once we got over that it was a lovely trip. Our guide was amazing and a fountain of knowledge about the history and mythology of the various places we went to. He could even read hieroglyphics and explain them! My friend and I both agreed it was one of our top tours that we've been on in Egypt.

This excursion is a 100% value for money. Our driver was flawless , our guide Ayman was super polite , super friendly , High level of English - fluent with a remarkable knowledge of archaeology, we enjoyed to the utmost this experience . We loved the general schedule of the excursion , I cannot describe the marvels we saw . We were staying in Cairo and we booked a flight to Luxor , they picked us up from the airport at a small cost . If you go to Egypt guys it’s a must to do!!

Great day seeing all the major places around Luxor. Great to have a guide as there was so much we would have missed otherwise. Mahmoud spoke great English and was informative and knowledgeable. Icy cold water in the car and a smooth ride. Would recommend this tour if it’s your first time in Luxor.
