About this experience
Just 50 minutes of flight - and you are in Luxor, which was previously known as Thebes and was the capital of Upper Egypt. In a group of up to 40 people, you will visit monuments that have survived through millennia: the tombs of the pharaohs in the Valley of the Kings, the temple of the female pharaoh Hatshepsut, the temple of the god Amun in Karnak. And you will also take a walk along the Nile!
What to expect
Our journey will cover the left and right banks of the Nile. The program includes:
- The Valley of the Kings in the City of the Dead, where the secrets of ancient temples and pharaohs' tombs will be revealed to you. You will walk through the most grandiose necropolis of Egypt, visit the funerary temple of Queen Hatshepsut - the only female pharaoh. You will see giant statues, the Colossi of Memnon, and hear their legend.
- Lunch and Nile cruise. After visiting the City of the Dead, we will stop for lunch at a buffet restaurant. Then you will have time for rest or a boat ride on the Nile (extra charge).
- The Temple of Amun in Karnak. After lunch, we will cross to the right bank of the Nile, visit the complex of the Karnak Temple and its main monument - the temple of the god Amun. Here, you will see the art of Ancient Egypt in all its glory: frescoes, reliefs, columns, and statues. The reliefs and drawings on the walls tell the story of the pharaoh's life and his relatives.
In addition, you will visit a shop selling oriental oils, and also visit a shop selling products made of the famous alabaster in Luxor.
