Behold the towering Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues that have stood guard over the Theban necropolis for over 3,400 years. These twin statues, each rising 18 meters high, depict Pharaoh Amenhotep III seated on his throne, gazing out across the Nile. Originally part of a grand temple complex, the Colossi are among the few remnants of what was once one of Egypt’s most magnificent structures. Famous for their mysterious 'singing' at dawn in ancient times, these statues continue to fascinate visitors with their grandeur and historical significance, making them a must-see site in Luxor

Discover the treasures of ancient Egypt at the Karnak Museum, an open-air museum located within the vast Karnak Temple complex. The museum showcases an impressive collection of statues, stelae, and other artifacts unearthed from the temple grounds, providing insight into the history and religious practices of the pharaohs. Highlights include beautifully preserved statues of gods and kings, as well as intricate stone carvings and reliefs. Visitors can explore exhibits detailing the construction and evolution of the Karnak Temple, one of the largest religious structures ever built. A visit to the Karnak Museum offers a fascinating extension to the temple experience, shedding light on the grandeur and significance of this sacred site

Stop 4

Marvel at the stunning Temple of Hatshepsut, an architectural masterpiece nestled in the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari. This monumental structure was built to honor Queen Hatshepsut, one of ancient Egypt's most successful pharaohs and its first female ruler. The temple’s grand terraces, sweeping ramps, and colonnaded halls blend harmoniously with the natural surroundings, creating a breathtaking sight. Admire the detailed reliefs and statues that tell the story of Hatshepsut’s reign, her divine birth, and expeditions to the Land of Punt. The Temple of Hatshepsut is a testament to the queen’s enduring legacy and the grandeur of Egypt’s New Kingdom

Stop 5

Explore the legendary Valley of the Kings, the ancient burial ground of Egypt’s most powerful pharaohs. Hidden beneath the arid hills of Luxor’s west bank, this UNESCO World Heritage site houses over 60 tombs, including that of the famous King Tutankhamun. Wander through the elaborately decorated chambers, where vibrant hieroglyphics and intricate wall carvings depict scenes from the afterlife, guiding the souls of the kings to eternity. The Valley of the Kings offers a unique glimpse into Egypt’s royal past, with tombs that reveal the grandeur, beliefs, and rituals of the New Kingdom pharaohs
