This full-day private tour departs from Cairo by plane to Luxor and lasts between eight and twelve hours. The day begins with hotel pickup in Cairo or Giza, followed by a domestic flight to Luxor. Upon arrival, a private Egyptologist guide leads visits to several major ancient sites. The first stop is the Valley of the Kings, where guests can explore three tombs selected by the Egyptian government to protect the site; entry to King Tutankhamun’s tomb requires an additional ticket. A falafel sandwich lunch, one bottle of water, and a soft drink are included during the day. After the Valley of the Kings, the tour continues to the Temple of Hatshepsut at El Deir El Bahary, a terraced temple built for Egypt’s only female Pharaoh, set against limestone cliffs. On the way back, there is a stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two large statues facing the Nile. The itinerary then moves to Karnak Temple, the largest temple complex in Egypt. Visitors walk along the Avenue of Sphinxes, enter the Hypostyle Hall with its 134 columns, and see obelisks dedicated to Queen Hatshepsut and Tutomosis III, alongside the temple of Amon decorated with lotus and papyrus motifs. The final ancient site visited is Luxor Temple, constructed in the 18th and 19th Dynasties and dedicated to the Theban triad of gods Amun-Ra, Mut, and Khonsu. Highlights include the Obelisk of Ramses II at the entrance. After the tour, guests are transported to Luxor Airport for their return flight to Cairo and then back to their hotel. Transport is by private air-conditioned vehicle throughout the day, and all entry fees, flights, and lunch are included based on the options booked.
