Itinerary
Begin your exploration in the Valley of the Kings, the final resting place of Egypt's rulers from the 18th to the 20th dynasty. Here, you can enter some of the most renowned tombs, including those of Pharaoh Tutankhamun and Ramesses II, adorned with intricate hieroglyphics and stunning artwork that narrate the pharaohs' journeys to the afterlife.
Temple of Hatshepsut, one of the most breathtaking architectural wonders of ancient Egypt. Nestled beneath towering cliffs in Deir el-Bahri, this mortuary temple honors one of Egypt’s greatest pharaohs, Queen Hatshepsut. The temple's unique design and the queen's fascinating story of her rise to power make for an intriguing exploration. Marvel at the temple's grandeur, its terraced structure leading up to the sanctuary itself, and the exquisite reliefs that depict the queen's divine birth and trading expeditions to the Land of Punt.
Make a stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III. For the past 3,400 years, they have stood in the Theban necropolis, serving as a silent reminder of the opulence and power of the New Kingdom pharaohs.
A short drive brings you to the Luxor Temple, an exquisite example of Pharaonic architecture that was once connected to Karnak by an avenue of sphinxes. This temple was a shrine of the rejuvenation of kingship; it might have been where many of the pharaohs of Egypt were crowned.
Next, venture to the sprawling temple complex of Karnak, a site of worship for over 2,000 years. Karnak astounds visitors with its vast array of decayed temples, chapels, pylons, and other buildings. The highlight is the Great Hypostyle Hall, a forest of giant pillars, each one telling a story of divine encounters and pharaonic triumphs.

Best tour I took in Egypt. Our guide Jaquline was very personable, she tailored our tour to our stay. She recommended great local hotel, activities, and restuarants. jaquline presented ancient Egypt for us as if we are living right in the middle of it. She was able to carry our imagination to see Ancient Egypt and its treasures a real life. She was able to take us into locations not commonly visited by tourists, these places are what made this trip from perfect to AMAZING. locations such as valley of the Nobles and others we were able to experience tombs in their original form, unchanged, literally just like in the movies. Highly recommend.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I’m thrilled to hear that your time in Luxor was so amazing. It sounds like you had a fantastic adventure from start to finish, and I'm glad everything went smoothly with the transfers and the tour. Nariman sounds like a wonderful guide, and I’m excited to hear you had such a positive experience with her. Thanks again for the recommendation
Book!!!! This is a great tour company!!!! The tour guide is extremely pleasant, kind, patient, and knowledgeable!! I would not have been able to explore the sights in Luxor without the tour guide. She knew so much about where to take my family and I, was very kind and had a positive energy. It really made such an amazing trip and experience. I’ve had trips with other tour guides and companies before, but AVICON I would choose over & over again!! My experience wasn’t like other boring trips I did. The trip really is based off of which company you choose and it can make or break the experience. Im so glad I chose her because my family and I truly enjoyed our time. The price is also extremely fair and I genuinely feel this tour company is underrated and deserves to be acknowledged. Egypt is a beautiful place & it takes someone who’s lived there & has a beautiful passion and love for her work to show others a good time. Exploring history & fun sites, taking pictures - it was overall the best experience & I couldn’t recommend Avicon enough!

Luxor was so amazing. We flew out from Cairo in the early morning and was picked up at the airport by the tour. Explored all over Luxor, which was so impressive, then brought back to the airport to fly back to Cairo. Long day totally worth it. Nariman was also a great guide 🤞 you get her too.
