In the morning you will be picked up from your hotel in central Luxor or harbor by an air-conditioned vehicle for a full guided trip of about 5 hours. First you will be transported to Karnak on the East Bank of Luxor. Karnak is a complex of temples built in different reigns, starting with the Avenue of Sphinxes, the Hypostyle Hall with its 134 gigantic columns, the Obelisks of Queen Hatshepsut and Tutomosis I, the Temple of Amon adorned with lotus and papyrus designs, the Granite Scarbeus of Amenophis III and the Sacred Lake. Karnak beats every other pharaonic monument: it is simply one of the most beautiful ancient monuments in Egypt. After Karnak you will be brought to Luxor Museum, which displays a very unique collection of ancient items found in Luxor, including objects that were found in the tomb of Tutankhamun, such as the golden cow's head of goddess Hathor and Tutankhamun's horse carriage and weapons. You can admire the stunning double statue of Sobek, the crocodile god, and king Amenhotep III and several mummies. And also, you can get a good idea of the colors and construction tools that were used to decorate the ancient tombs and temples. Afterwards, you visit Luxor Temple, which is dedicated to the Theben Triad of Amun-Ra, Mut and Khonsu. There you can see the granite statues of Ramses the Great. These ancient temples are a must-see for Luxor travelers. At every site you will get information from your Egyptologist tour guide and you will get free time to explore by yourself.
After touring the sites you will be transferred back to your hotel by an air-conditioned vehicle.
