2-day Luxor Tour Itinerary

Day One: Explore Luxor East Bank

Upon your arrival at Luxor Airport, you will be warmly welcomed by your private tour guide, holding a sign that reads “Egypt Fun Tours.” Afterward, you will embark on an exciting journey to the East Bank’s most iconic historical landmarks, including:

Karnak Temple

Begin your exploration at Karnak Temple, one of the most magnificent legacies of Ancient Egypt. Revered as the “most selected place,” it has played a vital role in the region’s history. Additionally, this impressive religious site served as a pilgrimage center for nearly 2,000 years.

Afterward, enjoy a delightful lunch at a restaurant with stunning views of the Nile. Then, check in to a luxurious 5-star hotel in Luxor. Relax and unwind for the rest of the day. Afterward, your tour continues with a captivating visit to:

Luxor Temple by Night

Luxor Temple, dating back to around 1392 BC, was initiated by Amenhotep III and completed by Tutankhamun and Horemheb. This sacred site is still used for worship today and was buried beneath the city’s houses over the centuries. During the Coptic Period, its hypostyle wall found new life as a Christian church.

We finish this enchanting experience. Afterward, you will return to your hotel to spend the night.

Day Two: Discover Luxor West Bank

Start your day with a delicious breakfast at the hotel. Then, your private tour guide will pick you up in a comfortable AC vehicle to continue your Luxor adventure, exploring the West Bank’s most renowned attractions:

Valley of the Kings

Your first stop is the Valley of the Kings, known as “The Place of Truth.” This isolated site has been the royal burial ground since 2100 BC. Home to over 60 royal tombs, it is a treasure trove filled with precious artifacts and jewelry.

Afterward, we continue our tour to explore the amazing site of:

Hatshepsut Temple

Next, visit the magnificent Hatshepsut Temple, a remarkable achievement of Queen Hatshepsut. Nestled beneath the towering cliffs of Deir El Bahari, this temple showcases her ambitious vision. Hatshepsut, one of the most famous pharaohs of the 18th dynasty, ruled for 22 years and initiated several monumental construction projects. For lunch, enjoy a unique dining experience on an island, complemented by a scenic boat ride on the Nile. Afterward, set your sights on:

Colossi of Memnon
