What you’re going to do
A representative will pick you up from your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh and transfer you to the Sharm International Airport for your flight to Luxor. Once you arrive in Luxor, you will be met and assisted by our local representative. After that, an Egyptologist guide with academic qualifications will accompany you to discover the Karnak Temples, the greatest example of worship in history, dedicated to the gods Amon, Mut, and Khonsu.
After visiting the Karnak Temples, you will have lunch at a local restaurant. Next, you will visit the Valley of the Kings, known for its grand architecture and the burials of many pharaohs, including Tutmosis I, Tutmosis III, Tut-Ankh-Amon, Ramesses VI, Merenptah, and Amenhotep II.
You will then discover the beauty of the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, the only female pharaoh who ruled ancient Egypt. The temple was built in honor of the god Amon-Re, who was Hatshepsut's father in her legend. Afterwards, you will see the Colossi of Memnon, the only remaining parts of the temple of Amenophis III.
Finally, you will be transferred to the Luxor Airport for your flight back to Sharm El Sheikh.
