About this experience
As you traverse the landscape, your guide will unravel the history of Upper Egypt showcases the ever-changing vistas of barren mountains, vast deserts, and fertile lands. Upon arrival at Luxor's West Bank, explore the remarkable Valley of the Kings, also known as the Valley of the Gates of the Kings. This iconic site served as the royal burial ground for nearly 500 years during the New Kingdom period, from the Eighteenth to the Twentieth Dynasties. Carved into the West Bank cliffs across from Luxor, this sacred valley is the final resting place of Egypt's pharaohs, featuring beautifully preserved tombs with intricate hieroglyphs. On your way, pause to capture the monumental Colossi of Memnon. Next, cross to the East Bank to explore the awe-inspiring Karnak Temple, famous for its massive Hypostyle Hall, Sacred Lake, and Avenue of Sphinxes. Conclude your tour at the historic Luxor Temple before enjoying a comfortable drive back to your ship at Safaga Port.
