The Best of Luxor Day Trips Begins

Pickup Point; 

By the air-conditioned vehicle driven by an expert captain, and with the accompaniment of your Egyptologist, enjoy a professional pickup service.

Arrive at the Valley of the Queens: 

It was dedicated to the royal family members—the daughters of the kings, their wives, and their sons.

The royal tomb in the Valley of the Kings was dedicated to only the king. Hence the Valley of the Queens was established for those royal members, including the sons, and not only the women.

In the Ptolemaic era and the end of the Twentieth Dynasty, they began to create tombs for the most important persons in the state. So, you will find here 91 royal tombs and 19 tombs for the important persons.

Visit the most important tomb that is dedicated to Nefertari. It includes the terrible architectural development in the Pharaonic civilization that Egyptian engineers reached in that period.

The valley also includes other amazing royal tombs. Some of them are Queen Titi's tomb, Princess Khaemwaset's tomb, and Amun Harkhebsh's tomb.

Explore Habu Temple:

Cross through the entrance of the temple made as per the Syrian architecture, and that is the effect of the Egyptian wars.

Arrive at the remains of a royal palace dedicated to Ramses III; it was used for the festivals, like the Valley Day.

The inscriptions on the columns and walls of this well-preserved temple built by Ramses III were dug deeply to 15 cm. Since Ramses III wanted to document his era. See these fabulous inscriptions.

How the stones of this massive, amazing temple were transferred to this site, and how many builders did establish it?! Uncover all these facts with your Egyptologist.

Arrive at this temple established during the 18th dynasty, including artifacts dating back to Thutmose I, Hatshepsut, Thutmose II, and Thutmose III.

Meet the tombs of the gods’ daughters, the stable where royal horses were raised, the holy lake still existing, soldier rooms, and statues of Sekhmet. 

Lunchtime at a Top-Class Local Restaurant:

At a local restaurant, savor the tasty Egyptian meal. We take care if you are a vegetarian or not when selecting your delicious food.

Ramesseum Temple

Ramesseum Temple is where you explore the fact that these funerary temples are intended to mummify the king or to perform only the ritual of opening the king’s mouth after mummification?! What is the purpose of the mouth-opening ritual, which was performed in 121 steps?

There are who said that the mummification process was done at the royal palace for 69 days, and the 70th day, which is the last day, would be at this temple of the opening mouth process. 

Actually, you will explore the whole use in the daily life of the pharaonic temples, getting to know an important side of ancient Egypt.

Great private tour to see desert and abandoned Roman ruins. Excellent service. We had private jeep, driver and tour guide. Amazing adventure, more than we expected. I strongly recommend this service. They can take you to some cool and unknown places far from main routes. Thank you for the amazing time!
