Valley of the Kings: Drive across to the west bank and explore the grandeur of architecture which was the hidden burial place for the famous icons of the new kingdom kings.

Your Egyptologist will cherry-select three tombs to visit according to your preference and personal abilities. In addition, you can opt for a ticket to visit the tomb of the golden boy, King Tut.

Hatshepsut Temple: Take a short ride to the temple of Queen Hatshepsut. With a temple carved into the  bedrock, Hatshepsut is the only female pharaoh who ruled Egypt like a true pharaoh. By erecting a temple in an action that speaks of her authority, this female ruler set a turning point in the history of women in Ancient Egypt.

The Colossi of Memnon: On your way back, stop to visit the Colossi of Memnon, which once were King Amenhotep’s figures. Hear the voice of the past whistling out at dawn carrying the legend of Memnon, the great warrior into our live present! With carvings on the side reflecting impressions of Roman emperors, the ancient Egyptian kings were, simply put, gods!

Karnak Temples: Start an amusing day by exploring the largest religious complex that was ever built for a god in the history of mankind, The Karnak Temples!

This temple was dedicated to the chief creator god, Amon Ra; built more than a thousand years by several generations of successive pharaohs. The great Hypostyle Hall is an incredible forest of giant columns covering an area larger than the whole of Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral, which may be the largest in the world, or is it the Angkor Wat  in Cambodia?!

That is for you to decide upon in-depth exploration!

Temple of Luxor: Next, you will be guided by your Egyptologist through the strikingly graceful Temple of Luxor, which once was connected to Karnak via the Avenue of Sphinxes, approximately 3 kilometers in length. Built in 1380 BC by Amenhotep III, the site was added to by other pharaohs later down the history; predominantly Ramses II.

This particular temple hosted and enjoyed many celebrations, the most important of which, was the Festival of Opet that  lasted a whole long month… almost!
