Itinerary

Day 1Luxor – Luxor East Bank

First of all, your expert tour guide will be waiting for you at Luxor airport, holding a sign of Package Holidays To Egypt for a seamless pick up. Then you will be taken to your private A/C vehicle, ready to start Luxor tour.

The tour will start at the East Bank where you will visit the Temple of Karnak

That is how it combines the achievements of many ancient builders & Pharaohs. It actually comprises a vast mix of ancient Egyptian decayed Temples, Chapels, and many other buildings. Inside it, you will find 3 main Shrines of Amun-Re, Mut, and Khunso on about 247 acres of Land.

Then, you will visit Luxor Temple

There is more history in every square meter in this terrific temple which was constructed about 1400 BCE and unlike the rest of the temples which were constructed in ancient Egypt, it wasn’t dedicated to any cult god or any deified king in death but it was dedicated to the rejuvenation of kingship where many kings were crowned and the best time to visit this magical Temple is at night

Once the tour is complete you will be transferred in comfort back to your hotel.

Overnight in Luxor

Day 2Luxor – Luxor West Bank

Start your day tour, after picking you up from your hotel in Luxor. The tour will start at the West Bank where you will visit…..

Valley of the Kings

The remote, barren Valley of the Kings was the necropolis of the New Kingdom pharaohs. By digging their tombs deep into the Theban Hills, pharaohs from Tuthmosis I (c.1500 BC) on hoped to stop robbers stealing the priceless possessions buried with them.

But for all that, the structures themselves remain, their dramatic corridors and burial chambers stunningly adorned with symbolic accounts of the journey through the underworld and ritual paintings to assist the pharaohs in the afterlife.

and many different amazing Ancient Temple Monuments. In the Valley of the kings you will be taken back in time entering the tombs of the Pharaoh’s that contain painted pillars and walls.

Temple of Queen Hatshepsut

Against its stark mountainous backdrop, the partly rock-hewn Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir al-Bahri is a breathtaking sight. It was designed by Queen Hatshepsut’s architect Senenmut in the 18th Dynasty and is an extraordinary monument which rises from the desert plain in a series of imposing terraces.

The temple was damaged by Ramses II and his successors, and Christians later turned it into a monastery (hence the name Deir al-Bahri, which means “Northern Monastery”). However, the ongoing excavation of the site continues to reveal much exquisite decoration. Adjacent to the main temple are the ruins of the much older Temple of Montuhotep II, the ruler of the 11th Dynasty who managed to unite Egypt, and the 18th-Dynasty Temple of Tuthmosis III.

Then to see the Colossi of Memnon

Soaring 18 m (60 ft) into the sky, the two enthroned statues of Amenhotep III are the first monuments most visitors see on arriving in the West Bank.

They originally guarded Amenhotep’s mortuary temple – thought to have been the largest ever built in Egypt -which was plundered for building material by later pharaohs and gradually destroyed by the annual floods.

All that remains are the two faceless colossi, which, despite the ravages of time, are an impressive sight.

Once the tour is complete you will be transferred in comfort back to your hotel.

Then follow on to Kom Ombo to visit the temple used by both gods Sobek and Haroeris. The Temple of Kom Ombo was built on the honor of two deities the crocodile-headed Sobek, god of fertility and creator of the world, and Haroeris or the ancient falcon-headed Horus

You will start the tour to High Dam, Lake Nasser

The Aswan Dam was built by the British between 1898 and 1902. At the time of its construction, it was the largest dam in the world, and its height was twice raised again in an effort to control the river. The roads to Abu Simbel and the airport cross the dam and the views over the river and islands are stunning.

Stretching south more than 500 km (310 miles) from the High Dam and reaching depths of over 180 m (590 ft), Lake Nasser is the largest artificial lake in the world.

Crocodiles thrive in Lake Nasser, it’s one of the most important tourist attractions in the Lake, Crocodiles hunting is prohibited by Egyptian Law.

you will visit the Philae Temple

As the center of the cult of Isis, the island of Philae was an important place of pilgrimage for worshippers until long into the Christian era. From Philae, Isis was said to watch over the sacred island of Biga, one of the mythical burial sites of her husband Osiris.

From here, a long courtyard, flanked by colonnades, leads to the magnificent Temple of Isis, the main building in the Philae temple complex.

To the west of the temple lies the Gate of Hadrian, which was inscribed, in 24th August AD 394, with Egypt’s last hieroglyphics. On the eastern side of the island, the small Temple of Hathor contains reliefs of musicians, among them Bes, the god of singing.

Further south, close to the edge of the water, is the classically graceful, 14-columned Kiosk of Trajan, which has scenes of the Roman emperor burning incense in front of Osiris and Isis. At the northern end of the island, the Temple of Augustus and Gate of Diocletian lie in ruins.

Then proceed to visit the Unfinished Obelisk, which shows the techniques used by the ancient Egyptians to cut obelisks. Most probably, this obelisk belongs to Queen Hatshepsut, one of the rulers of the 18th Dynasty and the royal wife of king Tuthmosis II. This queen was the owner of her Temple in the eastern bank of Luxor Also there is an opinion said that it belongs to Queen Nefertiti.
