Luxor and Cairo trips for two days from Marsa Alam

We will pick you up from your hotel in Marsa Alam using a private air-conditioned car to take you to Luxor on a night trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam. Upon arrival, you will meet your private tour guide who will join you to visit:

Karnak Temple :

There is no site in Egypt more impressive than Karnak. It is the largest temple complex ever built by man and represents the combined achievement of many generations of builders and ancient pharaohs. Karnak Temple is actually three main temples, small enclosed temples, and several outer temples located on 247 acres of land.

Lunch will be served at a local restaurant in Luxor. Cross the Nile by motorboat, then set out to visit:

Valley of the Kings:

The Valley of the Kings is the final resting place of Egypt's rulers from the 18th to 20th Dynasties, and is home to tombs including the great Pharaoh Ramesses II and Pharaoh Tutankhamun.

The graves were filled with all the material goods that a ruler might need in the next world. Most of the decorations inside the tombs are still well preserved.

Hatshepsut Temple :

It is one of the most beautiful preserved temples among all the temples of ancient Egypt. The temple is built on three levels with two wide ramps in a central location connecting the levels together.

My statue is Memnon:

Two huge stone statues of King Amenhotep III are the only remains of a complete mortuary temple.

The statues were made from blocks of quartz sandstone found in Cairo and then transported 700 km to Luxor.

In the evening you can enjoy an optional sound and light show tour of Karnak: The show begins with a historical introduction covering the birth of the great city of Thebes and the establishment of the Karnak Temple. The show narrates the glorious achievements of some of the great pharaohs as you listen to a wonderful and poetic description of the artistic treasures and great legacy that the Karnak Temple contains.

Overnight at Nile Palace Luxor or Sonesta St. George Hotel.
