Description

1. The Valley of the Kings

The Valley of the Kings is one of the most iconic archaeological sites in the world, located on the west bank of the Nile in Luxor. It served as the royal burial ground for New Kingdom pharaohs, including the famous boy-king Tutankhamun.

Explore intricately decorated royal tombs carved into the rock.

Discover ancient wall paintings and inscriptions illustrating the pharaohs’ journey to the afterlife.

Visit several tombs open to the public (based on your ticket).


 




2. Karnak Temple Complex

Karnak is the largest religious complex ever built in the ancient world. Developed over more than 2,000 years, it served as a major center of worship dedicated to the god Amun.

What you’ll see:

The Great Hypostyle Hall with 134 towering columns.

Majestic obelisks and the Sacred Lake.

The famous Avenue of Sphinxes (Ram-headed statues) leading to Luxor Temple.

A visit to Karnak offers a fascinating insight into ancient Egyptian religion and architecture.


 




3. Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut

This stunning temple is carved directly into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari and was built to honor Queen Hatshepsut, one of the most powerful female pharaohs of ancient Egypt.

Features:

Unique three-tiered structure built into the mountain.

Wall reliefs depicting Hatshepsut’s famous expedition to the Land of Punt.

Colonnades and statues showcasing the queen’s divine authority.

It’s an architectural masterpiece and a tribute to a remarkable ruler.


 




4. Colossi of Memnon

Standing 18 meters tall, these two massive stone statues represent Pharaoh Amenhotep III and once guarded his mortuary temple, which no longer exists.
