Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

The Temple of Karnak was believed to be the spot where creation began. They also believed it was a point of interaction between the god Amun-Ra and Egyptians. It is important to Egypt's cultural history because it was a place of worship and provides clues about the ancient Egyptian religion.

Stop 2

Considered one of Egypt's greatest pharaohs—man or woman—Hatshepsut brought great wealth and artistry to her land. She sponsored one of Egypt's most successful trading expeditions, bringing back gold, ebony, and incense from a place called Punt (probably modern-day Eritrea, a country in Africa).

Stop 3

The Colossi of Memnon (Arabic: el-Colossat or es-Salamat) are two massive stone statues of the Pharaoh Amenhotep III, which stand at the front of the ruined Mortuary Temple of Amenhotep III, the largest temple in the Theban Necropolis.

Stop 4

the Valley of the Queens is an ancient burial site for the wives of pharaohs, as well as princesses, princes, and other members of the nobility. The main wadi (valley) is home to 91 tombs. During its period of use, it was referred to as Ta-Set-Neferu, which translates into English as “the place of beauty.”
