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.

This tour of Luxor East and West Bank was so amazing. Our tour guide, Ahmed Awad has an incredible amount of knowledge and expertise and he had a very prepared, excellent way of conveying what he knows about each site. He led us through each site in a fulsome and informative way, beginning with an overview of historical background on each site, sometimes offering explanation of special and interesting information for context, then onward to a detailed walk through of each site and a great bonus was that he took the most beautiful pictures of my husband and I at each site! He also provided the best advice for how to manage the nearby salespeople which was so helpful in keeping our tour peaceful and enjoyable. Highly recommend him if you plan to tour Luxor! Our private tour of East and West Bank was split between two days and we highly recommend doing the same, as there is a lot to see and the only way to truly enjoy the experience is to spend a good amount of time at each site. We also recommend Hussein as he was a superb driver!

Ahmed was a very insightful guide taking us through the temples of Luxor. He was very knowledgeable regarding the historical aspects, and was very accommodating with the pace of the activities during the day. The best part of the trip was the visit to the valley of King's where Ramses tomb is located, and and we were fully aware of the past and present facts thanks to Ahmed. Ahmed ensured we got some great pictures along the way as well with a keen eye on detail. Our driver Hussein was very friendly as well accompanying us to all the sites, the team was a great one to work with, and a day well spent getting to know the history behind the Luxor temples.

My tour in Luxor has been simply amazing. I spent 3 days in Luxor and each day was filled with unforgettable experiences and a lifetime of memories all because of our private tour guide Hassan Seddik. He was very knowledgeable; as he is licensed in Egyptology. He’s also a great communicator as he is fluent in 3 different languages; Arabic, French and English. Lastly he was VERY accommodating to all of our requests. If you’re planning on coming to Luxor, I, strongly suggest you book with Jakada tours!!
