luxor from Cairo full Day tour by plane

Overview

On a private tour from Cairo to Luxor, you will travel in a modern air-conditioned car with a professional driver and a tour guide specialised in Egyptology. The guide will explain the historical context as you move through sites on both sides of the Nile, helping you appreciate the art, religion and daily life of ancient Egypt. In East Luxor you will visit the great Karnak Temple, dedicated to the god Amun-Ra, and the nearby Luxor Temple, taking time to see their monumental columns, reliefs and ceremonial spaces. In West Luxor you will explore the Valley of the Kings, where the royal tombs reveal the ancient Egyptians’ beliefs about death and the afterlife and display striking colours and symbolism. You will also see the three-storey Temple of Queen Hatshepsut and the Colossi of Memnon. Along the way, your Egyptology guide will point out architectural details and explain the religious and philosophical ideas behind the monuments, so you will gain a deeper sense of Luxor’s place at the heart of ancient Egyptian civilisation.
