Hurghada to Luxor: Private day trip

The Sahara Desert is vast. For Ancient Egyptians, their saving grace was the Nile River. Along its banks, their dynasty spanned across millennia. The Great Pyramids of Giza are their crowning creation, and further south lies the revered Luxor and the Valley of the Kings! This archaic mausoleum is home to over 65 tombs across separate exhibits, including the Valleys, the Necropolis, and Deir el-Bahari. Step into the final resting places of Pharaohs like Tutankhamun, Amenhotep II, and the lineage of Ramesses. You can even witness the world’s largest open-air museum from above on an exhilarating hot-air balloon ride! Luxor is also marked with grand Temples dedicated to Gods and revered Kings. The Ramesseum, Luxor Temple, and d’Amon Temple are marvelous, yet incomparable to Karnak Temple; the largest sacred building ever constructed. This enormous place of worship has stood the test of time. For over 2000 years, pharaohs added to Karnak, stamping their names and beliefs here, in the form of obelisks, chapels, and statues. Heading south along Sphinx Avenue will take you towards central Luxor, into cultural hotspots like El Souk. This colorful and blossoming market is an enthralling window into authentic Egyptian life and well worth a visit on your trip through the ancient city.
