Day Trip Luxor from Hurghada by Private Vehicle

Itinerary

✅ With an air-conditioned vehicle, we pick you up from the hotel in Hurghada and off we go through the eastern desert and through the mountains on the way to Luxor. After about 3 hours, we reach Luxor and there you can expect our experienced Egyptologist.

✅Surely you know the famous Karnak temple complex. Here we start with your tour. This huge complex of 3 temples is one of the many amazing projects of ancient Egyptian architecture. From the beginning of construction to completion, it took several generations. With the Karnak temple, you visit one of the largest religious buildings of antiquity. The second temple on the east bank is the Luxor temple. Both temples were formerly connected by a long avenue, which today is largely restored by excavations.

✅The Luxor temple was built not in honor of a god but in honor of a kingdom. He served as the culmination of a multitude of pharaohs. From here you have a wonderful view of the west bank of the Nile, which is our next stage.

✅On it goes to Thebes (the name of Luxor in the time of the Pharaohs). We cross the Nile and get an idea of ​​the fertility of the bank along the Nile as we drive through sugarcane and banana plantations to the edge of the desert.

 ✅Here you reach the mountains the home of the tombs in the Valley of the Kings. You visit some graves in which one can admire with fascination the still best-preserved murals with the stories to the lifetime of the Pharaohs. The tombs of King Thutmosis I, the Tomb of Thutmose III, King Tutankhamen, King Ramses VI, King Merenptah and Amenhotep II are among more than 60 tombs.

✅Everyone has heard of Queen Hatshepsut. Its temple is perched high up in the mountains of the west bank, even lit up from the eastern shore in the evening. Climbing the terraces of the temple at the bottom of the hill gives you an idea of ​​the imposing structure of the temple of the only female pharaoh with over 20 years of rule over Egypt.

✅ We take time for a lunch break in a local restaurant in Luxor. Enjoy Egyptian cuisine.

✅On the return trip, there is still a shortstop to the Memnon colossi which have been waiting there for more than 3400 years as a guard there.

✅With a lot of great impressions, we start your journey home to Hurghada and wish you a nice stay there until the trip home.
