• Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari - Continue to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, also referred to as El Dir El Bahari. This remarkable mortuary temple was constructed during the reign of Hatshepsut, one of history’s few female pharaohs. The temple boasts a series of terraces and colonnades set against the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari. It is dedicated to the sun god Amun-Ra and is adorned with exquisite reliefs depicting Hatshepsut’s divine birth, her successful trading expeditions, and her role as a ruler.
• Valley of the Kings - Following the balloon ride, your exploration proceeds with a visit to the Valley of the Kings. This significant archaeological site served as the burial ground for many pharaohs during the New Kingdom period, including the renowned tomb of Tutankhamun. The valley houses over 60 tombs, each embellished with intricate hieroglyphics and stunning frescoes that illustrate the beliefs and funerary practices of ancient Egyptians. Visitors can explore several of these tombs, gaining insight into the grandeur and artistry of ancient Egyptian burial traditions.
• Colossi of Memnon - Next, visit the Colossi of Memnon, two colossal stone statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III. Standing approximately 18 meters tall, these statues have guarded the entrance to Amenhotep’s mortuary temple for over 3,400 years. They exude a sense of majesty and power and were historically known to “sing” at dawn due to the sound of the wind passing through their cracks, enhancing their allure in ancient times.
• Temple of Karnak - Proceed to Karnak Temple, one of Egypt’s largest and most impressive temple complexes, primarily dedicated to the god Amun-Ra. Built over 2,000 years, the temple features a vast hypostyle hall with 134 towering columns, along with numerous chapels, obelisks, and sacred lakes. The immense scale and intricate carvings of Karnak make it a highlight of any visit to Luxor.
• Luxor Temple - Conclude your tour with a visit to Luxor Temple, constructed by Amenhotep III and later completed by Ramesses II. This temple is dedicated to the Theban triad of Amun-Ra, his wife Mut, and their son Khonsu. Unlike other temples, Luxor Temple is situated within the city and features impressive statues, large courtyards, and magnificent reliefs that depict significant historical events and the divine connection of the pharaohs.
