Itinerary

Day 1

Full-Day Ancient Thebes Heritage & Temple Safari from Cairo

Your journey from Cairo to Luxor commences with a comfortable transfer to Cairo Airport for an early morning, one-hour flight over the desert to Upper Egypt. Arriving in Luxor, meet your expert tour guide and begin your exploration of ancient Thebes at the awe-inspiring Karnak Temple. Spanning nearly 250 acres, this complex served as the chief sanctuary of Amun-Ra, housing grand obelisks, sacred lakes, and the colossal Hypostyle Hall built by generations of Egyptian rulers. Following your morning tour, pause to relax over a traditional lunch of authentic Egyptian specialties at a local restaurant on the banks of the Nile.

After lunch, travel to the West Bank to discover the royal burial sites hidden within the desert hills. Tour the Valley of the Kings, stepping inside three detailed royal tombs constructed for New Kingdom rulers like Ramesses II, with the option to visit the tomb of the boy pharaoh Tutankhamun. Next, stand before the Colossi of Memnon, two massive 18-meter-high quartzite statues of Amenhotep III transported 700 kilometers from Cairo to guard his ancient complex. Explore the dramatic terraced Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, seamlessly carved into the rock face of Deir el-Bahari, before returning across the river to visit Luxor Temple, celebrated for its monumental entrance pylon raised by Ramesses II. Finally, transfer to Luxor Airport for your evening flight back to Cairo, ending with a private transfer back to your accommodation.
