You will be picked up from your hotel in Hurghada and driven to Luxor by an air-conditioned deluxe vehicle to visit the Valley of the Kings, the magnificence of the grandeur of architecture that was used for burial. There are many kings buried in this valley.
The most known tombs are King Tut-Ankh-Amon, King Ramssess VI, King Mrenptah, Amenhotep II, Tutmosis I, and Tutmosis III.
Move on to visit the Hatshepsut Temple, which was built by Queen Hatshepsut, daughter of Thutmosis I, who ruled Egypt for about 20 years during the 18th Dynasty (approximately 1490-1469 B.C), the only pharaonic woman who reigned ancient Egypt.
You will pass by the Colossi of Memnon, which is the remains of the mortuary temple of Amenhotep III.
Continue driving to the east bank of Luxor to enjoy having your lunch at a local restaurant before moving to visit Karnak Temples, the most outstanding example of worship in history, dedicated to the God Amon, his wife Mut, and their son Khonsu.
