Activity itinerary

Valley of the Kings
  • 3h
  • Admission ticket not included
After your guide choices you up, you will begin your visit to the Valley of the Kings, a remarkable site known for its impressive burial architecture. This valley served as the final resting place for numerous pharaohs throughout Egyptian history. Among the most famous tombs are those of King Tutmosis I, Tutmosis III, Tut-Ankh-Amon, King Ramesses VI, King Mrenptah, and Amonhotep II. The Valley of the Kings is a testament to the power and grandeur of ancient Egypt. Carved into the cliffs, these elaborate tombs were meticulously decorated with intricate paintings and hieroglyphs, offering a glimpse into the beliefs and practices of the pharaohs and their court. Exploring these ancient burial chambers provides a unique opportunity to connect with the past and gain a deeper understanding of Egyptian civilisation.
Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
The Temple of Hatshepsut, also known as El Dir El Bahari, is a testament to the reign of the remarkable Queen Hatshepsut. As the daughter of Thutmosis I, she ascended to the throne of Egypt during the 18th Dynasty, ruling for approximately 20 years from around 1490 to 1469 BC. A woman of exceptional ambition and vision, Hatshepsut became the only female pharaoh to have ever ruled ancient Egypt. Her reign was marked by a period of prosperity and significant architectural achievements, and the Temple of Hatshepsut stands as a lasting symbol of her legacy.
Colossi of Memnon
  • 30m
The Colossi of Memnon are two massive sandstone statues of the Pharaoh Amenhotep III, located in western Thebes, Egypt. They stand as remnants of his mortuary temple complex. The statues originally flanked the entrance to the temple and were once painted and adorned with elaborate decorations. The Colossi are renowned for their impressive size, each standing approximately 35 metres (115 feet) tall. Despite significant damage over time, including earthquakes and erosion, the statues remain a prominent landmark in the area.
Luxor Temple
  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket not included
Next, we'll journey to Luxor's East Bank to explore the magnificent Temple of Luxor. This awe-inspiring structure was initiated by Pharaoh Amenhotep III during the 18th Dynasty of the New Kingdom. However, it was Ramses II, the illustrious pharaoh of the 19th Dynasty, who oversaw the completion of this architectural masterpiece. The temple stands as a testament to the power and grandeur of ancient Egypt, showcasing intricate carvings, towering columns, and a rich history deeply intertwined with the lives of these powerful pharaohs.
Temple of Karnak
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket not included
Finally, we will visit Karnak Temple, a magnificent testament to ancient worship. Dedicated to the god Amun, his wife Mut, and their son Khonsu, this temple complex is considered one of the largest religious sites ever built. Explore its vast courtyards, towering columns, and intricate hieroglyphs as you delve into the rich history of ancient Egyptian religion. After this awe-inspiring experience, we will return you to your hotel.
