Our Tour Guide will pick you up from your hotel/Nile Cruise by A/C Vehicle in Luxor to explore the West bank. Start with a visit to the famous Valley of the Kings . There are 63 tombs within the valley . The Royal tombs are decorated with Egyptian mythology which gives rise to the beliefs of the period. There are many known kings buried in the valley but of course the most famous being King Tutankhamun.
Then journey onto the magnificent Temple of Queen Hatchepsuit also known as Deir el Bahari .Queen Hatchepsuit meaning Foremost of Noble Ladies was thought to have started the first Trading routes.
two magnificent twin statues image of pharaoh Amenhotep III and two smaller statues carved by his feet (one being his wife and the other his mother), stand graciously in the horizon of the magnificent Luxor horizons. The two statues, each measuring 60 feet tall, stand at the entrance of Amenhotep III’s mortuary temple. They are famously named by the name of Colossi of Memnon due to a phenomenon produced by one of the statues after an earthquake. Originally built in the Theban Necropolis in the west of the Nile River in the modern city of Luxor, the Colossi of Memnon, two colossal statues made of quartzite sandstone, which archaeologists believe was quarried at El-Gabal el-Ahmar, located near modern Cairo and then transported 420 miles overland to the ancient city of Thebes, remain after thousands of years.
I had a fantastic day visiting the Valley of the Kings, Colossi of Memnon, and Hatshepsut Temple. The Egyptologist guide made the experience so much more engaging, and the air-conditioned transport ensured we were always comfortable.
I recommend the tour because everything was perfectly organized, the itinerary was appropriate, and they were always concerned about us.
