Your first stop will be the famous Valley of the Kings, an ancient burial ground for pharaohs and nobles during the New Kingdom period. Here, you can witness colorful hieroglyphic inscriptions and beautifully preserved tombs.
Next, you will visit the impressive mortuary temple of Queen Hatshepsut. Known for its unique design and stunning location among the cliffs of Deir el-Bahri, this temple is a must-see for any Luxor trip.
On your way back to Luxor city, you will stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues that once guarded Amenhotep III's mortuary temple.
After a morning of exploring, it's time for a well-deserved lunch break. Enjoy traditional Egyptian dishes at a local restaurant before continuing your journey.
In the afternoon, you will visit Karnak Temple, one of the largest religious complexes in the world. This impressive site features an array of temples, chapels, and statues dedicated to various gods and pharaohs.
After a full day of sightseeing, you will head to Aswan and check into your hotel. Relax and unwind before the next day's adventures.
Start your day with a delicious breakfast at the hotel before checking out and heading to Abu Simbel.
The Abu Simbel Temples by Lake Nasser are iconic Egyptian landmarks relocated in the 1960s to prevent flooding. The Great Temple, dedicated to Ramses II, features colossal statues, while the smaller temple honors his wife, Queen Nefertari. Both are decorated with carvings and hieroglyphics depicting mythology and Ramses II's victories.
Enjoy a traditional Egyptian lunch while taking in the stunning views of the Nile River.
After marveling at the breathtaking Abu Simbel Temples, you will travel back to your hotel in Soma Bay in the comfort of a private, air-conditioned car.
