Tour Itinerary
Day 1: Beginning Your Heavenly Nile Cruise: Our tour guide will start by visiting the attractions of East Luxor as the group embarks on its five-day Nile Cruise trip in Luxor:
Temple of Karnak
From the beginning of its construction in the middle kingdom in 2000 BC to the Ptolemaic Kingdom in 30 BC over 247 acres of land, the home of the ancient Egyptian deities has always been the heart of religious life, with the only goal of worshipping the Theban triad. The Great Hypostyle Hall, many precincts dedicated to Amun-Re and Mut, as well as numerous shrines and pillars presenting the most incredible works of art and legends, are all located in the Karnak complex, the largest religious complex in the world.
The party will board the Nile Cruise, have lunch, and then start exploring:
Temple of Luxor
Thebes’ mysterious Luxor Temple emerged from the desert to become the site of feasts and ceremonies celebrating the gods and their benefits. The temple was constructed about 1400 BC to house the legendary Opet Festival, which celebrated the revival of royalty and crowned several Pharaohs, including Ramses the Great and Amenhotep III. It serves as the southern sanctuary linked to the Karnak complex by the Avenue of the Sphinxes.
After supper and an overnight stay, the party will depart for their Nile Cruise.
Food: Lunch and Dinner
Throughout the night: on the Cruise
Day 2: Explore West Luxor’s Wonders: After eating breakfast together as a group aboard the Nile Cruise, everyone will go with a tour guide to explore:
The Kings’ Valley
The extraordinary Valley of the Kings is located in the center of a secret hill that contains 63 remarkable tombs housing the most magical artifacts and treasures from the 18th, 19th, and 20th dynasties of the New Kingdom (1570–1050 BC), including those of Tutankhamun, Seti I, Ramses the Great, Hatshepsut, and many others.
Temple of Hatshepsut
The captivating Hatshepsut temple, carved into the rocky Deir el-Bahari cliffs in the 15th century BC to honor the great god Amun and the incredible legacy of Queen Hatshepsut, is a divine symbol of allure and class that transcends the common meaning of architecture and offers a miraculous piece of art (1508-1458 BC).
Memnon’s Colossi
To shed some light on his remarkable accomplishments and history, the mystical twin statues of Amenhotep III (1391–1353 BC) were put back together after being destroyed by an earthquake in the Ptolemaic dynasty.
Onboard their Nile Cruise, the complete party will have lunch, supper, and spend the night.

Temple of Edfu
The stunning Edfu temple, which dates to the Ptolemaic era between 237 BC and 57 BC, is one of Egypt’s best-preserved temples and represents the most amazing account ever recounted of how the powerful deity Horus slew the terrible desert god Set.
Temple of Kom Ombo
Between 180 BC and 47 BC, the Ptolemaic era saw the construction of the two twin temples atop the hill of gold, which were dedicated to the gods of the crocodile Sobek and the falcon Haroeris. Incredible decorations from the Kom Ombo temple include several representations of the calendar, the usage of medical equipment, and other topics.

The strange incomplete Hatshepsut obelisk was built to stand at the Karnak complex and was intended to reach a height of 42 meters. It now serves as an outdoor museum displaying ancient Egyptian carving methods.
Temple of Philae
