Day 1: Hurghada to Luxor – Explore Luxor’s Wonders
In the morning, we’ll pick you up from your Hurghada hotel in a private, modern A.C. car for your transfer to Luxor. Upon arrival, your private Egyptologist tour guide will accompany you to begin your Luxor & Abu Simbel tour by visiting:
The Valley of the Kings offers a divine journey into the heritage of Egypt’s most marvelous ancient rulers from the New Kingdom (1570 – 1050 BC). This miraculous valley holds 63 tombs, each filled with hypnotic treasures and decorations. Explore the resting places of great pharaohs like Ramses II, Hatshepsut, Seti I, Tutankhamun, and many others.
Hatshepsut Temple
Experience the beautiful temple of Queen Hatshepsut (1507–1458 BC), a true holy of holies dedicated to one of ancient Egypt’s most influential pharaohs and the sun god Amun. This everlasting temple provides insight into some of ancient Egyptian civilization’s best-preserved examples.
Colossi of Memnon
Witness the highly rare and enchanting Colossi of Memnon, monumental statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III. Constructed around 1350 BC in Cairo, workers dragged them 700 meters to Luxor. They now stand as enduring sentinels at the faded mortuary temple of Amenhotep II.
Enjoy lunch at a Middle Eastern Nile View restaurant. Afterward, join your private guide to explore:
Karnak Temple
The divine Karnak Temple complex, known as Pr-Imn (House of Amun), primarily honors the Theban triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu. Builders constructed this epic complex between 2000 BC and 30 AD, spanning 247 acres, earning it the title of the biggest open-air museum on Earth. The Grand Avenue of Sphinxes, which connects it to the beautiful Luxor Temple, stands as one of this magical monument’s most enchanting features.
Next, a private modern car will transfer you to Luxor train station to catch your first-class train to Aswan. Upon your arrival, our representative will meet you and transfer you to your 5-star hotel in Aswan for check-in and overnight.
