Pick-Up from Your Hotel
Your expert Raymira Egypt Tours guide will pick you up from your hotel or Nile cruise in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle to start your journey of discovery in Luxor.
Visit the West Bank – The City of the Dead
Start on the West Bank of the Nile, the ancient land of tombs and afterlife.
Explore the Valley of the Kings, the resting place of Egypt’s greatest pharaohs, including Ramses II and Tutankhamun.
Step into ancient burial chambers beautifully decorated with colorful hieroglyphs that tell stories of eternity.
Next, visit the magnificent Temple of Queen Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari, a masterpiece of ancient architecture built into the cliffs of Thebes.
Before crossing back to the East Bank, stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two giant statues that have stood for over 3,400 years, guarding the ruins of a long-lost temple.
Visit the East Bank – The City of the Living
Cross the Nile to the East Bank, where the life of the pharaohs flourished.
Explore the majestic Karnak Temple Complex, the largest religious structure ever built.
Walk through its grand hypostyle hall, where 134 giant columns rise toward the sky — a sight that never fails to impress.
Finally, visit Luxor Temple, beautifully illuminated by daylight and surrounded by ancient sphinx-lined avenues that once connected it to Karnak.
