Your journey begins in Luxor, where you’ll visit the breathtaking Temple of Karnak—one of the largest religious complexes in the world. Marvel at its towering columns, sacred statues, and intricate hieroglyphics that tell the story of ancient Egypt.
After exploring Karnak, relax and enjoy lunch at a local restaurant. Then, for those who wish, take a traditional motor boat (optional) across the majestic Nile River to the west bank—an experience that offers a scenic glimpse into rural Egyptian life.
Continue to the legendary Valley of the Kings—home to more than 60 royal tombs carved into the desert hills. Explore the decorated chambers of ancient pharaohs, including the tomb of King Tutankhamun, which still houses his original treasures and golden sarcophagus. Admire the vibrant hieroglyphics that narrate the stories of the afterlife.
Discover the stunning mortuary temple of Hatshepsut, one of ancient Egypt’s few female pharaohs. Built into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, the temple’s unique design and tranquil setting make it a highlight of the day.
Next, stop to see the mighty Colossi of Memnon—two massive stone statues that once stood guard at the entrance of the Temple of Amenhotep III. These ancient sentinels remain a striking sight, rich in historical significance.

Really impressed with this company, our transfer was easy and comfortable (we had a minivan to ourselves, lots of space for a family of four), communication via WhatsApp was brilliant throughout, and we were able to add on a stop with no trouble at all. And the cost was very reasonable, we messaged a lot of different companies and they happily matched the best price we had. Highly recommended!
