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.

We booked a tour with Golavita, Mr Akram was very quick to respond to our questions and checked in with us daily to see how the tour was going.
Waleed, the tour guide, was excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The bottles of water to keep us hydrated was also a very nice addition.
The private transport was top class, modern air conditioned vehicles and friendly and helpful drivers.
Where do I start!!! A massive thankyou to Mr Akram and his team for creating amazing excursions giving you memorable experiences.
Right from the beginning, communication with Mr Akram was so professional, he attends to all your needs by listening to what it is you want to get out of your excursions and creates these amazing moments of a life time, all with the great connections he has. Nothing is too much of a hassle for Mr Akram, he answered all my questions thoroughly before I arrived.
Mr Akram showed me and my friend Hurghada City and bought us drinks, which was a lovely gesture for getting to know each other.
We went on two excursions whilst we were in Hurghada, one to Cairo and the other Luxor. Our hired car was very modern, clean and had AC, which gave us a great first impression.
A big shout out to our driver Hamada- what an amazing job he does, not enough credit is given. He drove so professionally and made us feel safe the entire time we were in his company.
A big shout out to Mushy our tour guide, what vast information she holds, absolutely amazing with great historical knowledge. She really gives you detailed information and takes her time explaining the finer details to you.
Overall our whole experience was amazing, many laughs along the way, many memories to treasure. Nothing is too much hassle for these lovely people, Mr Akram always made sure we were ok and enjoyed our experiences by checking in on us.
Drinks were always topped up ensuring we were hydrated all the time whilst on our tours.
If your thinking of booking with Palma tours, don't think just book, you will not regret it, right from the first communication you make with Mr Akram, things run so smoothly that's its literally stress free for when you arrive.
I can't thank Mr Akram, Hamada and Mushy enough, these three deserve well over 5 stars, and I'm already looking at my next trip for next year and I'm 1000% booking with yourselves again and Mushy and Hamada you'll be the people I'll be looking to hire again. Much love from Jill and Sobia (UK)
We arranged the tour a few weeks in advance before arriving in Egypt. Akram presented us with a complete private tour program, starting in Hurghada, visiting Cairo, the Black and White deserts, Alexandria and finally returning to Hurghada.
Everything run smoothly, from the different drivers, who picked us up and dropped us off, always punctual and safe (especially Hamada, 'Medo'!) to the guides, in particular Reeham in Cairo who was just outstanding and Ahmed in the desert tour who welcomed us in his home together with his family before taking us and preparing our dinner in the desert!
The overnight stays were all planned in great detail.
It was definitely an incredible experience during these 4 days!
A huge thank you to Akram!
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!
Really great day out, Akram , knowledgeable and fun,Akram was good company. A really excellent itinerary and experience, with all the hassle taken out and a lot of positives added in. Highly recommended to everyone!
Everything was great. We did Cairo tour and Luxor. 7 pers with driver and guide. The trips was tiring, but it was worth it.
We received exactly the services reserved.
