Karnak, Hatshepsut and Luxor Temple

• Temple of Karnak

  2 hoursAdmission Ticket Included

  Karnak Temple, probably the largest temple complex in the world, welcomes you with the Avenue of the Sphinx before entering the impressive columned hall. The ancient Avenue of the Sphinx connected the temple of Karnak with the temple of Luxor and today much of it has been restored with great effort. For this project, some buildings in the center of Luxor had to be removed and rebuilt elsewhere. At the Karnak Temple you will enter a sacred place of worship in ancient Egypt. The temple complex consists of several temples and the "Holy Lake", a place for sacrifices and purification rituals. Our Egyptologist will be happy to answer all your open questions about the history of the Karnak temple. After our walk through the impressive temple complex, we pause to enjoy a delicious local food of a high standard.

• Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari

  1 hoursAdmission Ticket Included

  The Temple of Hatshepsut is carved into the limestone cliffs high above the desert in the Deir el-Bahari valley. Seeing it from afar is a unique and impressive image that you will never forget. The temple is one of the most impressive works of architecture in the world, stepped platforms, pillared porticos and vivid reliefs contrast against a desert backdrop. This funerary temple was built in honor of Amon-Ra, the God of the Sun.

• Luxor Temple

  1 hoursAdmission Ticket Included

  Luxor Temple, a coronation temple where the coronation ceremony were held in the time of the Pharaohs of Egypt, is located on the outskirt of the city, directly on the promenade of the Nile River on Luxor East Bank. The construction of the Luxor Temple complex, dedicated to the god Amun, took hundreds of years during the reign of Amenhotep III, Ramses II, and Tutankhamun. In 2001, the World Monuments Fund donated a contribution to the preservation of the Luxor Temple, with which the sandstone fragments, which up until then were in the salty groundwater, were restored. This ensured the preservation of the columns and wall fragments, inscribed with hieroglyphics that tell the story of the pharaohs.
