Highlights
The 2-Day Private Tour of Luxor and Aswan from Safaga is a fascinating and immersive journey through some of Egypt's most iconic historical sites. Led by an expert guide, this tour takes you through the heart of ancient Egypt, exploring the temples, tombs, and relics of the Pharaohs.
On day one, you will be picked up from your cruise in Safaga and transported to Luxor, where you will begin your tour. The first stop is the Valley of the Kings, a sprawling necropolis that served as the burial place for many pharaohs of the New Kingdom period. Here, you will explore several tombs and learn about the fascinating history of the pharaohs and their beliefs about the afterlife.
After the Valley of the Kings, you will visit the Temple of Hatshepsut, a stunning mortuary temple dedicated to the only female pharaoh of Ancient Egypt. You will also have the opportunity to explore the Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues that once guarded the entrance to Amenhotep III's mortuary temple.
Itinerary
Day one in Luxor
Valley of the Kings
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedThe west bank of Luxor had been the site of royal burials since around 2100 BC, but it was the pharaohs of the New Kingdom period (1550–1069 BC) who chose this isolated valley dominated by the pyramid-shaped mountain peak of Al Qurn (The Horn). Once called the Great Necropolis of Millions of Years of Pharaoh, or the Place of Truth, the Valley of the Kings has 63 magnificent royal tombs.Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari
1 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedAt Deir Al Bahri, the eyes first focus on the dramatic rugged limestone cliffs that rise nearly 300m above the desert plain, only to realise that at the foot of all this immense beauty lies a monument even more extraordinary, the dazzling Temple of Hatshepsut. The almost-modern-looking temple blends in beautifully with the cliffs from which it is partly cut – a marriage made in heaven. Most of what you see has been painstakingly reconstructed.Colossi of Memnon
15 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedThe two faceless Colossi of Memnon, originally representing Pharaoh Amenhotep III, rising majestically about 18m from the plain, are the first monuments tourists see when they visit the west bank. These magnificent colossi, each cut from a single block of stone and weighing 1000 tonnes, sat at the eastern entrance to the funerary temple of Amenophis III, the largest on the west bank. Egyptologists are currently excavating the temple and their discoveries can be seen behind the colossi.- AccommodationsAccommodation in 3 Star hotel in LuxorFood And DrinksLunch
