Highlights
Lose yourself for a day in one of the most famous archeological sites in the world. Enjoy a guided day tour to visit the famous ancient sites of Luxor and Valley of the Kings. Luxor, which is the ancient city of Thebes, is often referred to as the greatest outdoor museum in the world. Opposite modern Luxor on the west bank of the Nile is The Valley of the Kings where, for nearly 500 years, tombs were constructed for the Pharaohs and powerful nobles.
Itinerary
Temple of Karnak
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedThe Karnak temple is located in Karnak, Luxor Governorate, south of Egypt on the east side of the Nile River bank.Valley of the Kings
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedThe rulers of the Eighteenth, Nineteenth, and Twentieth Dynasties of Egypt’s prosperous New Kingdom (c.1550–1069 BC) were buried in a desolate dry river valley across the river from the ancient city of Thebes (modern Luxor), hence its modern name of the Valley of the Kings. This moniker is not entirely accurate, however, since some members of the royal family aside from the king were buried here as well, as were a few non-royal, albeit very high-ranking, individuals. The Valley of the Kings is divided into the East and West Valleys. The eastern is by far the more iconic of the two, as the western valley contains only a handful of tombs. In all, the Valley of the Kings includes over sixty tombs and an additional twenty unfinished ones that are little more than pits.Hatshpsot
49 minsAdmission Ticket FreeMortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut The mortuary temple of Hatshepsut (c.1478/72-1458 B.C.E.) dates from the New Kingdom. It nestles at the foot of the cliffs in a natural "bay" on the West Bank of Luxor. This area had long been sacred to the goddess Hathor and was the site of the earlier mortuary temple and tomb of King Nebhepetre Mentuhotep (c.2008-1957 B.C.E.) of the Middle Kingdom (ramp visible on the far left). After the introduction of Christianity, Hatshepsut’s temple was used as a monastery, hence its modern name, Deir el-Bahri, Arabic for "Northern Monastery." Hatshepsut was a female pharaoh who had herself represented pictorially as a male. She served as co-regent with her nephew Thutmose III (c.1479-1425 B.C.E.). The Polish National Academy of Sciences is responsible for the study and restoration of the three levels of the temple. As of spring 1995, the first two levels were almost complete, and the top level was still under reconstruction.
