Full Day Private Tour of Luxor West Bank from marsa Alam

The tour begins with a morning pickup from your hotel or Nile cruise in Luxor. Travel in a private, air-conditioned vehicle accompanied by a professional Egyptologist guide.

Your first stop is the Valley of the Kings, the famous necropolis where New Kingdom pharaohs were buried. Enter select tombs to admire intricate hieroglyphics and vibrant wall paintings that depict the journey to the afterlife. Your guide provides detailed explanations of the symbolism and history behind each tomb.

Next, visit the Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari, a striking terraced mortuary temple built against limestone cliffs. Learn about Hatshepsut’s reign and explore the temple’s beautifully preserved reliefs depicting her divine birth and trade expeditions.

Continue to the Valley of the Queens, where royal wives and children were laid to rest. The tombs offer a quieter, more intimate insight into the funerary practices of ancient Egypt.

Then, explore the Valley of the Artisans (Deir el-Medina), home to the craftsmen who constructed the royal tombs, and discover their inscriptions, dwellings, and daily life.

Afterward, visit Medinat Habu Temple, the mortuary temple of Ramses III, renowned for its massive walls and detailed reliefs illustrating battles, rituals, and ancient Egyptian art.

Conclude your West Bank tour with a stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two gigantic statues that once guarded a vast mortuary temple, providing a perfect photo opportunity.

Return to your hotel or Nile cruise in Luxor, completing a comprehensive exploration of Luxor’s West Bank in comfort and style.
