Itinéraire

Hotel Pickup & Scenic Drive to Luxor

Morning : (Approx. 5 hours)
Your private driver picks you up from your Marsa Alam hotel in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. Settle in for the scenic 5.5-hour drive north through the Eastern Desert, watching the landscape shift from coastal plains to rugged mountains as you approach the Nile Valley. This is your chance to relax, sip complimentary water, and build anticipation for the wonders ahead.

Valley of the Kings Exploration

Late Morning : (Approx. 120 minutes)
Step into the Valley of the Kings, the ancient burial ground of pharaohs like Tutankhamun and Ramses the Great. Your private Egyptologist guide leads you inside three selected tombs, where vivid hieroglyphics and deep burial chambers reveal the Egyptians' beliefs about the afterlife. You'll see the valley kings map come to life as you explore the valley kings inside these remarkable chambers.

Temple of Hatshepsut

Late Morning : (Approx. 60 minutes)
Drive to the base of towering sandstone cliffs to discover the magnificent Temple of Hatshepsut, Egypt's only female pharaoh.

Karnak Temple Discovery

Explore the vast Karnak Temple complex, the largest religious building ever constructed. Walk through the Great Hypostyle Hall, where 134 towering columns rise like a stone forest, each covered in intricate carvings.

Return Journey to Marsa Alam

Afternoon : (Approx. 5 hours)
Board your private vehicle for the comfortable 5.5-hour drive back to Marsa Alam. Watch the sunset paint the desert in shades of orange and gold as you reflect on the day's incredible discoveries. Your driver ensures a smooth, safe journey with rest stops as needed.

The whole tour was planned out perfectly. we were met by Amr, who was our guide for the day who took us around all of the items on the itinerary. He explained in detail each of the temples we saw and answered any questions we had. The tour wasn't rushed and we had time to explore each location and take photos. We would highly recommend Amr as a guide and also the driver, Said was prompt on each pickup and got us to each location in a timely fashion. We would recommend this as a way to explore Luxor and the history of Egypt.

AnnaUnited Kingdom We had an absolutely brilliant trip with Mohamed and NICE Tours. Everything ran perfectly and we simply can’t believe what we saw in one day. It’s a very packed agenda and it’s a lot of walking and exploring, but having done loads of GYG tours all over the world - this has been my best one by far. Luxor is an absolute gem! Mohamed was engaging, very entertaining, very happy and upbeat and extremely knowledgeable about the history of everything. He made the day fun and kept the energy going. He’s a star! We did have to chase before the tour date to get information, but I think that’s the way in Egypt. We didn’t need to worry as the team at NICE had it covered. Thank you so much!
