After a delightful breakfast, your private guide will pick you up from your hotel to begin a fascinating day of exploration on your 15 Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, Abu Simbel, Hurghada & Alexandria Tour Pckage, starting with the legendary Giza Plateau.

This vast archaeological site is home to Egypt’s most iconic monuments, including the three great pyramids, the Great Sphinx, the workers’ village, and other remarkable structures. The Giza Plateau is a timeless example of ancient Egypt's engineering genius and architectural mastery.
The Great Pyramid of Khufu:
Built over 4,500 years ago as a royal tomb for Pharaoh Khufu, this awe-inspiring pyramid is the largest in Egypt. Originally encased in smooth white limestone and crowned with a golden pyramidion, it showcases the ancient Egyptians’ advanced understanding of construction and their beliefs about the afterlife.
The Great Sphinx:
A colossal limestone statue with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, the Sphinx stands as a symbol of strength and wisdom. Dating back to around 2500 BC during the reign of Pharaoh Khafre, it continues to captivate visitors from around the world.
The Valley Temple:
This remarkably preserved temple, built from massive limestone blocks during the reign of King Chephren, was likely used for royal purification rituals and mummification ceremonies before burial.

The High Dam:
Constructed between 1960 and 1970 during the era of President Gamal Abdel Nasser, this monumental engineering project created Lake Nasser, one of the world’s largest artificial lakes. The dam controls the Nile’s annual floods, generates hydroelectric power, and secures water for irrigation, marking a significant achievement in Egypt’s modern history.
The Unfinished Obelisk:
Commissioned by Queen Hatshepsut to stand at Karnak Temple, this colossal obelisk was intended to be the largest ever carved from stone. Work was abandoned after cracks appeared in the granite, leaving behind a fascinating glimpse into ancient stone-carving techniques.
Enjoy a delicious lunch at a Nile-view restaurant before continuing to explore:
Philae Temple:
Dedicated to the goddess Isis, the beautiful Philae Temple was originally located on Philae Island but was relocated to Agilkia Island by UNESCO in the 1960s to save it from the rising waters of Lake Nasser.

Queen Hatshepsut Temple:
Gracefully carved into the towering cliffs of Deir El-Bahari, this mortuary temple honors Queen Hatshepsut — one of Egypt’s most remarkable female rulers. Built in the 15th century BC, its elegant terraces, sweeping ramps, and detailed reliefs tell stories of divine birth, trade expeditions, and the queen’s legacy as a visionary leader.
Valley of the Kings:
Hidden beneath the Theban hills lies the legendary Valley of the Kings — the final resting place of Egypt’s most powerful pharaohs, including Tutankhamun and Ramses II. Step inside ornately decorated tombs, where vivid hieroglyphs and colorful scenes offer a glimpse into ancient beliefs about the afterlife and the journey of the soul.
Colossi of Memnon:
Standing sentinel over the West Bank for more than 3,000 years, these two massive statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III each rise over 18 meters high. Once guarding the entrance to his mortuary temple, they remain a striking symbol of ancient Egyptian artistry and engineering skill.
After a day steeped in history, return to your Luxor hotel for a well-earned evening of rest, ready for more discoveries ahead.

Dendera Temple:
Dedicated to the goddess Hathor, this remarkably preserved complex dates back to the Ptolemaic period (54–20 BC) but stands on the site of much older temples. Highlights include the intricately decorated Hypostyle Hall, the famous Dendera Zodiac, and reliefs depicting Cleopatra VII with her son, Caesarion. The site beautifully blends ancient Egyptian and Greco-Roman influences.
Abydos Temple (Temple of Seti I):
Built during the 19th Dynasty (circa 1290–1279 BC) and dedicated to Osiris, god of the afterlife, Abydos Temple is renowned for its exquisite bas-reliefs and the Abydos King List — a chronological record of pharaohs from Menes to Seti I. This sacred site was a major religious center and burial ground, deeply tied to early dynastic history and Osiris worship.
