Full-Day Tour to East and West Banks

The East Bank is the living side of Luxor and the center of modern life. It is home to major temples such as Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple, as well as hotels, markets, and museums. In ancient times, it was associated with life and worship. The West Bank is the land of the dead, where ancient Egyptians built tombs and mortuary temples. It includes the Valley of the Kings, the Valley of the Queens, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon. It is quieter and strongly linked to beliefs about the afterlife.
