All about the trip
Enjoy a comfortable day trip to Luxor by plane and see all its major sights including the gigantic statues of Colossi of Memnon and the Valley of the Kings with tombs of famous Egyptian pharaohs. Experience a boat ride on the Nile to Banana Island.
The flight to Luxor from Sharm El Sheikh takes 50 min. From the airport we head to the Valley of the Kings. On our way we stop to see the Colossi of Memnon, the large seated statues are the last remnants of the Temple of Amenhotep III.
The Valley of the Kings located among limestone hills hides tombs of the greatest pharaohs including Tutankhamun. We will visit two of the local tombs to explore their architecture and decoration.
We continue to the beautiful terraced Queen Hatshepsut Temple and then to the famous Karnak temple. But first we enjoy our lunch in a local restaurant to replenish our energies before we visit the unique complex.
Karnak comprises of several temples, chaples and halls. The Great Hypostyle hall has been constructed with 134 huge columns in 16 rows and it is the largest single chamber of any temple in the world.
Then we are ready for a refreshing boat ride on the river Nile which will take us to Banana Island where we can explore a vast collection of banana plants.
At the end of the tour we will have some time to shop for nice souvenirs before going back to the airport and returning to your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh.
