Private Tour of Luxor
- The tour begins with an early morning pickup from your central Marsa Alam hotel in time for a 4:30 am departure. Travel in the comfort of a private vehicle, set out on a 3.5-hour journey to Luxor, accompanied by a private Egyptologist guide.
- On arrival, start your tour on the West Bank, exploring the UNESCO-listed Valley of the Kings (Necropolis of Thebes), where the mountains are home to over 63 royal tombs dating from the 2nd century BC.
- Venture inside to see some of the tombs and perhaps opt to see the most famous of all — the tomb of Tutankhamun (extra cost).
- Before breaking for lunch, continue exploring the surrounding archaeological wonders, including the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut (Deir el Bahari) and the Colossi of Memnon.
- After a typical Egyptian-style lunch (included), cross over to the modern city on the river's east bank.
- First, take a tour of the Karnak Temples, a vast complex built between 2055 BC and 100 BC, where highlights include the Avenue of the Sphinxes, the Great Hypostyle Hall, and the Sacred Lake.
- Then, set sail aboard a traditional felucca boat for a 30-minute cruise along the Nile — then end your tour with a visit to Luxor Temple.
- On return to Marsa Alam, your tour ends with drop-off at your hotel.
