Trip Overview
Discover the Wonders of Luxor’s West Bank
Travel from the Red Sea to the heart of Ancient Egypt with our Hurghada to Luxor tour. This exclusive day trip is designed for travelers who prefer the comfort and flexibility of a private vehicle over crowded tour buses. On this Hurghada to Luxor tour, you will explore the legendary Theban Necropolis led by a professional Egyptologist guide.
Exploring the Valley of the Kings from Hurghada:
The first major stop on your Hurghada to Luxor tour is the world-renowned Valley of the Kings. This is where the pharaohs of the New Kingdom were buried in hidden, rock-cut tombs to protect their treasures from looters.
Your private guide will lead you into the most well-preserved tombs, where you can marvel at the vibrant colors of the wall paintings that have remained bright for over 3,000 years. Whether it is the tomb of Ramses or the famous Tutankhamun, the West Bank offers a profound look into ancient Egyptian beliefs regarding the afterlife.
Hatshepsut Temple:
Next, we visit the stunning Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut. Carved into the towering limestone cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, this three-tiered temple is a masterpiece of ancient architecture.
During your Hurghada to Luxor tour, we also might stop for a photo at the Colossi of Memnon. These two massive stone statues, representing Pharaoh Amenhotep III, are all that remain of what was once the largest mortuary temple in the Theban area. They serve as a majestic gateway to the wonders of the West Bank.
Combine it with: our Karnak and Luxor Temple day trip from Hurghada, Luxor hot air balloon ride, Hurghada desert safari with Bedouin village and BBQ and Mahmya Island snorkeling trip from Hurghada. Or browse all our Egypt tours.
