Day 4: Luxor West and East Bank Tour, Departure transfer

Valley of the Kings - Check out afterbreakfast, and then visit The west bank at Luxor. It is one of the most important archaeological sites in the world. It is much more than what we refer to as the Valley of the Kings, though many have called the whole of the area by that name. In fact, many good books on the west bank at Luxor (ancient Thebes) are titled,”Valley of the Kings”, even though they cover the entire area. It can be a bit confusing for the novice, particularly considering the actual conceptual scope of the religious concept. If one looks at just the Valley of the Kings, one only sees tombs, but the tombs were an integral part of larger mortuary complexes. Indeed the whole west bank is honeycombed with tombs, not just of the ancient Egyptian Kings, but of their families and the noblemen who served them.

Temple of Hatshepsut - Also you will visit Hatshepsut Temple ( Deir el-Bahari ) and visit the two colossal statues of Amenhotep III (Colossi of Memnon).

Temple of Karnak - Then start your tour to the East bank of Luxor. The Temple of Luxor and the Temple of Karnak. Unlike the West Bank, which was ever the main area for cemeteries and mortuary temples, the East Bank represented the main settlement of the living throughout the millennia - a role that has hardly changed.The vast majority of hotels and tourist facilities are to be found in the East Bank

Luxor Temple - The Temple of Luxor, open daily May-September 6am \

Best Driver- Eslam - Eslam drove us around for three days and then drove us all the way to Marsa Alam- he was one of our favorite people we have met in Egypt and made the long car rides so fun, and we felt so safe! He was an amazing driver and we absolutely recommend him to any other tourists or guests visiting :)
