This is a private tour/activity. Only your group will participate to all the mentioned sights with your own private guide. You will explore Karnak & Luxor Temple East Bank Valley of Kings & Hatshepsut Temple West Bank
Karnak is an ancient Egyptian temple precinct located on the east bank of the Nile River in Thebes (modern-day Luxor). It covers more than 100 hectares, an area larger than some ancient cities.
Constructed over hundreds of years by Amenhotep III, Ramses II, Tutankhamun, and other pharaohs, Luxor Temple was the largest and most significant religious center in ancient Egypt. In what was then Thebes, Luxor Temple was “the place of the First Occasion,” where the god Amon experienced rebirth during the pharaoh’s annually reenacted coronation ceremony.
The west bank of Luxor had been the site of royal burials since around 2100 BC, but it was the pharaohs of the New Kingdom period (1550–1069 BC) who chose this isolated valley dominated by the pyramid-shaped mountain peak of Al Qurn (The Horn). Once called the Great Necropolis of Millions of Years of Pharaoh, or the Place of Truth, the Valley of the Kings has 63 magnificent royal tombs.
At Deir Al Bahri, the eyes first focus on the dramatic rugged limestone cliffs that rise nearly 300m above the desert plain, only to realise that at the foot of all this immense beauty lies a monument even more extraordinary, the dazzling Temple of Hatshepsut. The almost-modern-looking temple blends in beautifully with the cliffs from which it is partly cut – a marriage made in heaven. Most of what you see has been painstakingly reconstructed.

While on our second half of our trip in Luxor and on the Nile cruise we had Ahmed Awad as our guide and he was absolutely amazing. He was extremely passionate and knowledgeable about Egypt and everything he was teaching us. Also he kept us very safe and never left us alone. He also took very cool pictures of all of us. I would highly recommend him to anyone. He was one of the highlights of our trip!

Our tour guide was Ahmed Awad, he was incredible. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about everything on the tour and can speak many languages. I also liked that he was constantly doing a head count and making sure everyone was staying together and helping us feel safe. He has been the best guide in Egypt that we have used thus far.

Must travel with Ahmed Awed - he made our large group of girls feel completely safe while being flexible and accommodating for all of us when we needed a pharmacy or snacks and drinks or shopping on the street. He helped bargain for cheap prices and was incredibly informative at every trip stop. Thanks Ahmed!

Ahmed Awad was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in guiding us through Luxor, Edfu, and Aswan. He made sure to explain a lot of the details we were seeing at the temples and tombs and even pointed small details we would have missed had he not mentioned them.

Ahmed Awad was a great guide. He was very knowledgeable and provided great history on all of the sites. He seemed genuinely interested in getting to know us and was very caring. He listened to any of our concerns and tailored everything to fit our needs. He wasn’t just trying to make money or take pictures for us. He would take pictures if wanted and needed. He always made sure we stayed together which was important. I would recommend him to anyone needing a guide in Egypt!

We had an amazing time with Hassan! He managed all the logistics of our tour and gave us an incredibly in depth understanding into Egyptian culture, both ancient and modern, and how the sites we were visiting fit into that picture. His knowledge of the pharaohs, ancient gods, and hieroglyphics was astounding and I learned more about Egypt on this trip than I will ever learn from a museum or book - you truly have to visit Egypt to understand it and have Hassan there to guide you. I can’t speak highly enough of our experience!
