West Bank
The tour begins on the West Bank, known as the City of the Dead, where ancient pharaohs were interred in elaborate tombs and temples. First, visit the Valley of the Kings, one of Egypt’s most renowned archaeological sites. This valley houses the tombs of notable pharaohs, including Ramesses III, Ramesses VI, and Merenptah. These rock-carved tombs have preserved the stories of ancient rulers for millennia.
- Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari - Next, proceed to the magnificent Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, an extraordinary structure built in honor of Egypt’s only female pharaoh. Hatshepsut ruled for 20 years, bringing prosperity and peace to Egypt. The temple, with its stunning terraces rising against the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, showcases incredible ancient Egyptian architecture.
- Colossi of Memnon - After visiting the temple, stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III that once guarded his mortuary temple. They remain an iconic symbol of Luxor’s ancient grandeur.
- Luxor - Then, enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant, where you can relax and recharge before continuing your journey.
- Temple of Karnak - After lunch, explore more temples that highlight the grandeur of ancient Egyptian civilization. Your first stop on the East Bank is the Karnak Temple Complex, one of the largest and most impressive temple complexes in the world. Dedicated to the gods Amun, Mut, and Khonsu, the temple is a vast open-air museum.
- Luxor Temple - Finally, visit the stunning Luxor Temple, another magnificent temple built by Amenhotep III and completed by Ramses II. Learn about the significance of this large ancient Egyptian temple.
