    Full description
    Meet your Egyptologist tour guide and start your journey in a private air-conditioned vehicle. Relax in comfort as you travel to explore the most important historical monuments in Luxor. Choose between a tour of both the East and West banks, or visit only one side of the Nile according to your preferences. On the West bank, discover the Valley of Kings where you will visit the remarkable tombs and last resting place of the Kings Ramsses III, Ramsses VI, and Mrenptah. If you've booked an entrance to the tomb of Tutankhamun (available as an add-on), you'll then see the most iconic Egyptian tomb known world-wide. Then, proceed to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, dedicated to a female ruler who reigned over Egypt for 20 years, bringing the country wealth and peace. See the mortuary temple of Amenhotep III at the Colossi of Memnon, then stop for lunch at a local restaurant. On the East bank, witness the Complex of Karnak, which might be the largest temple in the world. You have one more stop before you leave the place: the magnificent Luxor Temple, a large ancient Egyptian temple which you will have time to explore.

    It was an amazing experience. We got all the information we needed before the tour, Rania was amazing arranging the transfer and being flexible with our requests. Our driver and our tour guide Adel was amazing, we really enjoyed our full day tour with them. Luxor is definitely a spot to visit in Egypt and this is the company to go for! Thank you Rania and Adel for a great experience.

    Wonderful tour to see the West Bank in half a day! The Valley Of the Kings, King Tut’s tomb (extra cost) and the Temple of Hatshepsut are all worth a visit. Best advice is to go early before it gets really hot! Also: the only way to do this is with a guide. Ayman’s knowledge was so valuable and Ahmad (the driver) patiently waited for us at every stop. They also take you to an alabaster workshop where you can browse items and buys some if you wish (and the guide is very helpful in ensuring that you pay the right price). Overall, we left full of knowledge and wonder!

    We had an amazing time on this tour and it's all because of Ghada! She was the best tour guide we have had while in Egypt! It was as if a friend was showing us around. She is very well spoken, knowledgable, answered questions and very pleasant to be with! I cannot say enough positive things about her! If you're lucky, you will have her as your guide! I recommend requesting her specifically. She deserves a raise! -Paula and Dan
