Private Day Tour to Luxor from Safaga Port

Upon arrival at Safaga Port, you’ll be met by your professional Egyptologist guide and escorted to a private, air-conditioned vehicle for the scenic drive to Luxor. As you travel through the desert and fertile Nile-side villages, your guide will share fascinating insights about Egyptian culture, daily life, and the history of this region.

Once in Luxor, your exploration begins on the West Bank of the Nile, where ancient tombs and temples reveal the splendor of Egypt’s golden age. Step inside the Valley of the Kings, the final resting place of the pharaohs of the New Kingdom. Here, beautifully decorated tombs tell the stories of life, death, and rebirth in vivid color. Your guide will lead you through selected tombs, explaining their symbolic art and meaning.

Continue to the spectacular Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, an architectural wonder carved into towering cliffs. This temple honors one of Egypt’s most remarkable rulers — the only woman to reign as a pharaoh. Admire its terraces, colonnades, and reliefs that celebrate her divine achievements. Before leaving the West Bank

stop for memorable photos at the Colossi of Memnon, two immense statues that have stood watch over Thebes for more than 3,000 years.

During the tour, you’ll enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant, included as part of your private experience. With flexible timing, you’ll never feel rushed — your guide ensures you see the highlights that interest you most.

Cross the Nile to Luxor’s East Bank, where you’ll explore the monumental Karnak Temple Complex — the largest religious structure ever built. Walk through its forest of giant columns, see sacred lakes, and marvel at inscriptions that celebrate ancient gods and kings. Continue to the elegant Luxor Temple, beautifully situated along the Nile, and discover how it was once linked to Karnak by the Avenue of Sphinxes.

At the end of your unforgettable journey, relax in your private vehicle for the comfortable drive back to Safaga Port, arriving in time to rejoin your cruise ship.
