Karnak Temple:

Beneath the wonders of Luxor stands the magnificent Karnak Temple, one of the most celebrated architectural treasures in the world.

This vast temple complex is deeply tied to the pharaonic deities Amun, Mut, and Khonsu, and was primarily dedicated to their worship and sacred rituals. Karnak remains a powerful testament to the grandeur and authority of the New Kingdom pharaohs.

Luxor Temple:

The esteemed Luxor Temple, a sanctuary of divine significance, was established in 1400 BC as a focal point for jubilation and reverence.

Dedicated to the revered Theban triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu, this sacred site hosted the prestigious Opet festival, symbolizing the renewal of kingship. Recognized for its historical and cultural importance,

Luxor Temple was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1979, standing as a testament to the enduring legacy of ancient Egypt.

Stop for having your lunch meal at a Nile view restaurant, then head to Luxor West Bank to visit:

Valley of the Kings:

On Luxor’s western shore lies the Valley of the Kings, a sun-drenched gorge that at first glance seems like just rocky desert. But hidden beneath it are the tombs of 63 of ancient Egypt’s most important pharaohs, including Ramses II, Hatshepsut, Seti I, and the boy king Tutankhamun.

From the 16th to the 11th century BC, this valley served as the royal burial ground for pharaohs, their families, and their treasures.

Temple of Queen Hatshepsut:

The Temple of Hatshepsut is an impressive architectural feat, that dates back to the 18th Dynasty. The temple of Hatshepsut was built around 1478 BC and is located in Deir el-Bahari.

Built for the powerful Queen Hatshepsut, it is a unique terraced structure that bears witness to her reign and her innovative art.

Next head to visit:

Colossi of Memnon:

These two enormous statues, which have defied time and erosion for more than 3400 years, reach 17 meters in height, and once stood in front of the pylons of the funerary temple of Amenhotep III, whose remains have been buried under the nearby farmland for centuries, until archaeological excavations of the site began in the 1970s.

Then we will transport you to either your hotel or Luxor Airport, marking the conclusion of your day Tour to Luxor East and West Banks.
