Overview

On this day trip from Luxor to Esna and el Kab, you will explore several ancient sites and learn about the people who built them. You will visit the Temple of Khnum, walk among rock-cut tombs and see the partially-excavated remains of Nekhen, one of Egypt’s oldest cities. You will also pass through the main quarries area that the pharaohs relied on to source stone for their temples, giving context to the art and architecture you will encounter. An experienced guide will be with you to explain the history and stories behind each site as you move through them, so you can focus on the monuments and their details. The trip includes all entrance fees, transport and round-trip transfers from Luxor hotels, making it simple to concentrate on the archaeology and scenery rather than logistics.
