Itinerary
Day 1: Karnak and Luxor temples on the east bank
From your hotel in Makadi Bay, we will pick you up with an air-conditioned vehicle for our 3-hour drive to Luxor. Enjoy during your drive through the mountains of the eastern desert of Egypt.
Once in Luxor, you will be received by an Egyptologist for a private guided tour.
Luxor Tour from Makadi Bay begins with the Karnak Temple Complex. As you go through this huge complex of temples, you will ask yourself, as many visitors have previously, how it was possible to create this huge monumental height of the pillars of the temple at the time of construction.
The temple is the largest temple complex in Egypt with 3 main temples and about 29 enclosed small temples. Unlike the Luxor Temple, we are here at a sacred site of ancient gods.
The Luxor Temple, formerly connected by an avenue to the Karnak Temple, is the temple where the coronation ceremonies of the Pharaohs were held. It is located on the edge of a beautiful promenade. From here you have a magnificent view of the west bank of the Nile, where the next day our next stage leads. To relax and for the overnight stay in Luxor, we take you to the hotel.
Day 2: Visit Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple West Bank
After breakfast at your hotel, you and your private tour guide start the tour in Luxor by crossing the Nile to the West Bank and get a sense of fertility along the Nile as we drive through sugar cane and banana plantations to the edge of the River Nile Desert where we find one imposing place of our trip the Valley of the Kings.
Luxor Tour from Makadi Bay allows you to 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 about 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.
After a short time for a shopping trip, we drive back to Makadi Bay and wish you a nice stay in Egypt.
