From Ship to Sand: Luxor Day Trip & Snorkeling Adventure from Safaga Port

Explore the ancient wonders of Egypt in Luxor during this Luxor tour from Safaga Port and enjoy snorkeling in the Red Sea. Isn’t it amazing that you can take a short, two-day trip that includes both a cultural tour and a pleasant, leisurely tour? As the Egyptian proverb says, “A Bird in Hand Is Worth Two in the Bush,” picture being able to take such a chance as your cruise leaves from Safaga Port. In the course of our tour, we’ll give you the chance to see some of Luxor’s most impressive historical attractions, such as the Valley of the Kings, the stunning Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, the largest religious structure in Egypt, the Karnak Temple, and the amazing Hurghada City, where you’ll go snorkeling for the first time in your life. Do you believe you can?

Day One: Safaga Port to Luxor Tour

When you arrive at Safaga Port, one of our representatives will be waiting for you with an “Egypt Fun Tours” sign, and he will be in charge of transporting you from the port to the breathtaking Luxor city in a modern car to begin your adventure by touring around some of the top Luxor attractions with a professional Egyptologist tour guide who will meet you in Luxor city and will accompany you to visit:

The Valley of Kings

The Valley of the Kings is one of the most well-known archaeological sites in the world. There are royal burial sites of some of the most renowned pharaohs who governed ancient Egypt from 1539 to roughly 1075 BC, such as the tombs of the youthful Pharaoh Tutankhamun, Ramses II, Ramses IX, Seti I, and Ramses VI.

Temple of Hatshepsut

Hatshepsut’s temple was made of limestone rather than sandstone, as were the majority of the New Kingdom funeral temples. It was dedicated to Queen Hatshepsut and the deity Amun. Simply said, you must see Hatshepsut’s mortuary temple while in Egypt because of its well-preserved embellishments and mesmerizing building techniques.

Memnon’s Colossi

Colossi of Memnon are two amazing gigantic colossal stone sculptures that depict King Amenhotep III and were primarily designed to defend his Mortuary Complex, but the complex was destroyed and turned out to be ruined, and those two statues are the only existing components of the complex.

Now it’s time to have lunch at a restaurant in Luxor before continuing your trip by visiting:

Temple of Karnak

What is mostly known about that remarkable monument is that it was built in honor of three of the most prominent ancient deities: Amun, Mut, and Khonsu, making it the biggest religious structure ever built. Many ancient Pharaohs, notably Ramses II and Amenhotep III, contributed to the creation of the place.

We will bring you back to Safaga Port at the conclusion of your day excursion so that you may spend the night on board your cruise.

Day 2: Safaga Port Snorkeling Tour

We will pick you up from Safaga Port on the morning of the second day of your tour and transfer you in a modern air-conditioned car to the beautiful city of Hurghada where you will have a remarkable snorkeling excursion through which you will have a majestic experience, especially because Hurghada has a diversity of sea life and you will be able to explore a large part of it with our Snorkeling trip.

Snorkeling

We will take you to several snorkeling locations where you can pick whether to go in the water or spend your time tanning on the deck of your boat. The boat will also be outfitted with snorkeling equipment that may be used whenever needed. Lunch will be provided on board your boat while you enjoy a memorable Safaga experience. It is the finest opportunity to combine a leisure excursion with a cultural visit to the lovely city of Luxor.

After your fantastic trip with us, we will drive you in an air-conditioned vehicle back to your Safaga cruise before its disembarkation time, bringing your overnight Cultural and historical tour with us to a close.
