Itinerary for the Luxor Day Trip from Hurghada:

Start your Luxor Day Tour from Hurghada in the early morning, when our Egypt Tours Group representative will pick you up from your Hurghada hotel by a private vehicle to drive you to Luxor. Upon arrival, meet your private Egyptologist guide and begin exploring the best-kept secrets of ancient Thebes:

Valley of the Kings:

The mythical Valley of the Kings served as the final resting site for 63 pharaohs of Egypt's New Kingdom, including Ramses II, Amenhotep I, Hatshepsut, and Tutankhamun. Their timeless tombs are adorned with magnificent treasures, hieroglyphics, and artwork that reveal the beliefs and funerary practices of ancient Egypt.

Temple of Queen Hatshepsut:

A mesmerizing marvel dedicated to one of ancient Egypt’s most accomplished rulers, Queen Hatshepsut. Dating back to 1479 BC, this mortuary temple at Deir el-Bahari was designed in the classical New Kingdom style, with terraces that blend seamlessly into the limestone cliffs. It honors the creator god Amun and celebrates the enduring legacy of Hatshepsut’s reign.

Colossi of Memnon:

Standing proudly on Luxor’s West Bank, the Colossi of Memnon are twin statues carved from quartzite sandstone. Each weighs around 720 tons and depicts Pharaoh Amenhotep III (1386–1350 BC). For centuries, they have symbolized the grandeur of his once-magnificent mortuary temple.

Afterward, enjoy an appetizing lunch at a Nile-view restaurant. Then continue to visit:

Karnak Temple:

Known in antiquity as “Ipet-isu” (The Most Selected of Places), Karnak is one of the largest religious complexes ever built. Dedicated to the Theban triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu, along with other deities such as Ptah, Isis, and Osiris, it features monumental pylons, towering obelisks, and the stunning Hypostyle Hall, which boasts 134 massive columns. A standout feature is the Grand Avenue of Sphinxes linking Karnak to the nearby Luxor Temple.

At the end of your visits, you will be driven back to Hurghada in a modern private vehicle to conclude your unforgettable Luxor Day Trip from Hurghada.
