West Luxor | Luxor: Private Half-Day Guided Tour with Pickup

Overview

On this private half-day tour of Luxor’s West Bank, you’ll be collected from and returned to your hotel and guided by an expert Egyptologist. Begin at the Valley of the Kings, the burial place of Egypt’s greatest pharaohs. You’ll step inside beautifully decorated tombs that have stood for over 3,000 years and hear stories about royal burials and ancient beliefs about the afterlife. As you move on, visit the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari, a striking monument carved into the cliffs. Your guide will explain the history of Egypt’s most powerful female pharaoh as you take in the temple’s terraces and detailed reliefs. Along the way, stop to admire the Colossi of Memnon — two colossal statues that once flanked the mortuary temple of Amenhotep III — and learn about their place in the landscape and history of Thebes.
