355 reviews

This tour is your key to unlocking Egyptian history – and unveiling the eternal story of ancient Luxor, described as one of the world’s greatest open-air museums. The ancient Egyptians built their great monuments based on meticulous engineering and mathematics.

On this semi-private tour for small groups of up to 8 pax, you will experience Luxor’s top treasures including Karnak Temple, the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple plus the giant Colossi of Memnon – all of which you’ll explore in just one day, including a delicious set menu lunch at a 5-star hotel to meet your expectations.

Setting off from Hurghada City and surroundings in Makdai Bay, Soma Bay, Sahl Hashish, El Gouna, Safaga and Kalawy Bay in the early morning through the Red Sea Mountains to Luxor, you’ll stop for breakfast before delving into your first sight – the impressive Karnak Temple, a sprawling complex of towering temples. Next, you’ll have a set menu lunch before heading to the Valley of the Kings by motorboat across the Nile. You’ll get to enter three of its 63 royal tombs. Then, take in the ancient Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, and the staggering Colossi of Memnon. Expect a jam-packed day of temples, tombs, and monuments that sweep you through thousands of years of history.

    Es war ein sehr anstrengender aber auch super schöner Ausflug. Unser Begleiter hat sehr viel über das Land erzählt und uns auch sehr schöne Orte gezeigt. Zusätzlich hat er auch dafür gesorgt dass wir immer kühle Getränke bekommen. Es war sehr gut organisiert und ein unvergessliches Erlebnis.

    We had Emad as a guide tour who was very very knowledgeable - it was a very long day, however we had plenty of stops along the way - the only down side was having to walk through the bazaars where you do get a bit hassled, however just keep walking and do not acknowledge them (even children) - Emad will advise who to buy off but do not feel pressured to do so - also take plenty of coins for tipping as you seem to do that a lot and take factor 50 sun cream - overall it was well worth it.

    Wir haben eine Kleingruppentour (7 Personen)gebucht. Unserer Meinung nach die perfekte Größe. Unser Reiseleiter Zacharias hatte ein enormes Wissen über die Orte die wir besucht haben. Es war toll ihm zuzuhören, man hat ihm angemerkt das er für sein Land und die Geschichte seines Landes „brennt“. Sehr schöne Tour, tolle Infos, toller Reiseleiter, tolle Busfahrer. Wir sind sehr froh die Tour gebucht zu haben!

    This was the most amazing experience ever. Not many people can make history come to life but our tour guide did. Emad was absolutely brilliant, full of knowledge and excellent humour. Myself and my son enjoyed every moment. We were well taken care of food, water and our health and safety. We have managed to see Luxoru in all it's beauty Thank you we will never forget it

    Sehr beeindruckend und gut organisiert. Das muss man gesehen haben. Der Guide hat auch gut auf uns aufgepasst und durch die Trinkgeldjäger durchnavigiert. Nachdem wir von einer Besichtigung zurück waren, stand der Bus schon wieder direkt vor dem Eingang bereit.
