Overview

Explore the ancient Temples of Karnak and Luxor on the Nile’s East Bank with a private Egyptologist guide. At Karnak you’ll wander through a vast complex of temples and halls that date back more than 3,000 years. You’ll pause beneath the giant columns of the Hypostyle Hall, walk along the Avenue of the Sphinxes and see other notable monuments while your guide explains their history and significance. You’ll then move on to Luxor Temple to take in its columns, open courts and carved statues. As you explore, your guide will explain how the temple was embellished by figures such as Tutankhamun and Alexander the Great, giving context to the art and architecture you’ll see. The visit blends sweeping ancient architecture with detailed stories, so you’ll come away with a clear sense of why these sites have long been central to Egyptian history.
