This tour is your key to unlocking Egyptian history – and unveiling the eternal story of ancient Luxor, described as one of the world’s greatest open-air museums. The ancient Egyptians built their great monuments based on meticulous engineering and mathematics.

On this semi-private tour for small groups of up to 8 pax, you will experience Luxor’s top treasures including Karnak Temple, the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple plus the giant Colossi of Memnon – all of which you’ll explore in just one day, including a delicious set menu lunch at a 5-star hotel to meet your expectations.

Setting off from Hurghada City and surroundings in Makdai Bay, Soma Bay, Sahl Hashish, El Gouna, Safaga and Kalawy Bay in the early morning through the Red Sea Mountains to Luxor, you’ll stop for breakfast before delving into your first sight – the impressive Karnak Temple, a sprawling complex of towering temples. Next, you’ll have a set menu lunch before heading to the Valley of the Kings by motorboat across the Nile. You’ll get to enter three of its 63 royal tombs. Then, take in the ancient Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, and the staggering Colossi of Memnon. Expect a jam-packed day of temples, tombs, and monuments that sweep you through thousands of years of history.
