Full-day Private Guided Tour of East and West Bank in Luxor

Overview

You will meet your Egyptologist guide and travel in a private air-conditioned vehicle to explore Luxor’s most important ancient sites. On the West Bank, your guide will lead you through the Valley of the Kings and explain how the ancient Egyptians made the colours used to decorate their tombs. You’ll then see the most iconic Egyptian tomb known worldwide before continuing to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, built for the female ruler who brought wealth and peace during her 20-year reign. Along the way you’ll also visit the mortuary temple of Amenhotep III and the nearby Colossi of Memnon, with a stop for lunch at a local restaurant. On the East Bank, you will explore the vast Complex of Karnak, which may be one of the largest temple sites in the world, and finish at the magnificent Luxor Temple. Throughout the experience your Egyptologist guide will provide historical context and help you understand the significance of each monument as you move between the sites.
