Your Egypt Tours would like to enhance your cruise holiday and on shore vacation into the Red Sea and give you the option to enjoy a private tour with private guide and exclusive van just to satisfy your needs to discover the ancient Pharaonic temples and historical sights of Luxor,
Your journey starts with our representative, who will meet you in the morning at the cruise ship exit door and take you to the world-famous Karnak Temple, one of the most significant places of devotion created ever. You'll be accompanied by your personal Egyptologist guide, whose expertise will ensure a truly enriching experience!
"I pet-it" is the ancient name that is translated as "The most sacred of places." The temple, or perhaps more accurately, the complex of temples, was constructed over 2,000 years ago by successive pharaohs. The magnificent "Hypostyle Hall" within the structure is a fantastic forest of enormous pillars.
After a leisurely lunch and a trip to the Mercure Hotel's restaurant, you will be taken by your tour guide to see the magnificent Luxor temple, which was constructed by Amenhotep III and Ramses II, for rites and celebrations honoring the god Amon. Later on, you will embark on a unique adventure, enjoying a captivating voyage with sunset scenery aboard a Felucca, a "typical Egyptian sailing boat," as you take a soothing sail on the River Nile. This experience is sure to leave you with unforgettable memories. Following this, you'll be driven to your hotel to check in and have some free time there. Following an optional visit to see the unique light and sound performance at the Karnack Temple in Luxor, you will be escorted to your hotel for a relaxing evening stay.
In the morning, enjoy breakfast at your Luxor hotel. Following breakfast, your private Egyptologist guide, who speaks English, will take you to see the two enormous statues of Amenhotep III (the Colossi of Memnon) on the West Bank of the Nile River. Next, you will visit the Valley of the Kings, where the impressive tombs that were engraved deep into the desert rock were found. The tombs were extravagantly decorated and contained every valuable item that the pharaohs believed they would need in the afterlife. Here, we will get to see three tombs.
Following that, you'll go to the magnificent Hatshepsut temple in El Deer El Bahary. This temple honors Queen Hatshepsut, the only female pharaoh, who rises from the desert plain in a series of terraces and blends in with the surrounding sheer limestone cliffs.
Lunch is also included when we finish off this fantastic voyage. Ultimately, your guide will accompany you back to the cruise ship in Safaga Port; the time of your ship's departure from Luxor will determine the time of your departure from Safaga Port (220km).
