Begin your Luxor City adventure by heading to its western side where you’ll explore the Valley of the Kings, an area renowned for its spectacular architectural feats used for entombment, with numerous monarchs laid to rest here. Notable burials include those of King Tutmosis I, Tutmosis III, Tut-Ankh-Amon, King Ramssess VI, King Mrenptah, and AmonhotepII. Continue your journey to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, constructed by the queen herself, Thutmosis I’s offspring, who presided over Egypt for nearly two decades in the 18th Dynasty (circa 1490-1469 B.C), being the sole female pharaoh to rule ancient Egypt. Along the way, observe the Colossi of Memnon, remnants of Amenhotep III’s funerary temple. Proceed to the east bank of Luxor where you’ll savor a meal at a local eatery, before proceeding to the venerated Karnak Temples, a profound symbol of divine veneration, consecrated to the deity Amon, his consort Mut, and their progeny Khonsu. Your tour concludes with transportation back to your Luxor accommodation.
