• You will be picked up from Cairo or Giza in an air-conditioned car and transferred to Cairo Airport for your flight to Luxor.
• Upon arrival, your guide will be waiting for you with a sign bearing your name. In Luxor, visit the magnificent Valley of the Kings, the original burial site of King Tutankhamun, where magnificent tombs were discovered carved deep into the desert rock, richly decorated and filled with treasures for the afterlife of the Pharaohs. You will have the opportunity to visit three tombs.
• The three tombs visited are determined by the Egyptian Government to preserve them from the large flow of visitors, so they are rotated throughout the year and cannot be confirmed before your visit. King Tut's tomb requires an extra ticket.
• Continue to Hatshepsut's Temple at El Deir El Bahary. This impressive temple was dedicated to Queen Hatshepsut, the only female Pharaoh, and rises out of the desert plain in a series of terraces that merge with the sheer limestone cliffs.
• On your return journey, stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two gigantic statues representing Amenophis III facing the Nile.
• Then see Karnak Temple, the largest temple ever built, and walk through the Avenue of Sphinxes.
• Visit the Hypostyle Hall with its 134 gigantic columns, see the obelisks of Queen Hatshepsut and Tuthmosis III, and witness the Temple of Amon, adorned with exquisite lotus and papyrus designs.
• At the end of your tour, you will be transferred to Luxor Airport for your flight back to Cairo and then taken to your hotel in Cairo or Giza.
