1-Day Luxor West Bank

Hotel Pick-Up - Luxor

• Your private driver and your licensed Egyptologist guide will pick you up from your Luxor hotel. Travel in comfort in a private air-conditioned vehicle.

Valley of the Kings

• The Valley of the Kings, located on the west bank of Luxor, is the home to many royal tombs from the new kingdom. The discovery of the nearly-intact tomb of King Tutankhamun in 1922 completely transformed Egyptian archeology and led to the Valley of the Kings becoming one of the most famous archeological sites in the world. More than 65 known tombs are located in the Valley and have been cut directly into the rock. Many of these tombs are still adorned with beautiful carvings and paintings as befit their royal occupants. 
• Your ticket to Valley of the Kings includes self-guided tours of three tombs; optional tours to special tombs such as King Tutankhamun or Seti I is available with an extra ticket.

Tour Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut

• Hatshepsut is one of Egypt’s most well-known pharaohs, and one of the few female pharaohs that we know of. She ruled for more than twenty years in a period of notable prosperity and peace. Among her many significant architectural projects is the Temple of Hatshepsut, facing Luxor and the Temple of Karnak.

See the Colossi of Memnon

• These two massive statues of Amenhotep III once stood before the king’s mortuary temple. In later years, Greek and Roman tourists visited the site and left numerous graffiti detailing their own story of the colossi.
