Tour
the most famous sites on Luxor's West Bank in the company of a private
egyptologist guide. You'll step back into Egypt's ancient history at the
Valley of the Kings and Hatshepsut Temple on this private morning tour
from Luxor. As this is a private tour, you can determine the amount of
time you'd like to spend at each site. Crossing the Nile River to the
West Bank, you'll visit the necropolis of the ancient city of Thebes.
Arriving at the Valley of the Kings, burial place of the kings of Thebes
(ancient Luxor), you will have a brief stop at the visitors center.
Guides are not permitted inside the tombs, but your guide will tell you
what to look for inside the elaborately decorated rooms. If you wish to
visit the tomb of King Tutankhamun, an additional cost is payable
direct. Leaving the hot sands of the Valley of the Kings, you will visit
the Temple of Hatshepsut, one of the most striking monuments in Egypt.
Your guide will introduce you to the history of the temple and the story
of Queen Hatshepsut, the famous female ruler of Egypt who posed as a
male to gain the throne. There is free time to explore at your leisure
as you wander the large courtyards and admire the intricate hieroglyphic
decorations. Returning to Luxor there will be time for a brief photo
stop at the Colossi of Memnon, which mark the site of the funerary
temple of Amenhotep III. These two giant statues standing tall and proud
on the West Bank are all that remain of the ancient complex. In
addition you will have the chance to visit an alabaster factory and
purchase genuine items if you wish.
