What to expect

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.

    Haithum our tour guide was amazing he made this trip so for our family we felt we come away with a friend. The whole day was full of magical places catered very well and did not feel rushed. A trip along the nile, the Valley of the Kings and Queens, karnack, stone museum and a lovely lunch and other stops along the way. Haithum was very knowledgeable and didn't stop the whole day. The drivers for the day Ahmed were amazing driving us around Luxor. 100% fantastic trip.

    The tour guide picked me up from my hotel on time and kept us informed about the timings of the whole trip. The guide was an archaeologist excellent and knew all the latest findings and the best tombs to visit, detailing the hieroglyphs and explaining their meanings and the history of the pharaohs, the crowns and the dynasties.

    This tour exceeded our expectations. The driver Salah and our guide Yasser were excellent and looked after us at all times. Yasser’s knowledge of the history of the sites was extensive and the places we visited were inspiring. Lunch over-looking the Nile was five star and we enjoyed the boat trip across the Nile afterwards. Couldn’t fault anything at all. A fabulous trip.
