About this tour

Valley of the Kings

The Valley of the Kings, situated on the ancient site of Thebes, is a renowned burial ground for many New Kingdom pharaohs and high-ranking officials in ancient Egypt. This iconic site is famous for its historically significant tombs, intricate decorations, and the treasures they once held. The Valley of the Kings stands as a testament to the grandeur and historical importance of the New Kingdom era.

A private tour to the West Bank in Luxor offers an exclusive opportunity to explore this fascinating site. Included in many Luxor tour packages, the tour provides a unique experience to uncover the secrets and splendor of Egypt’s royal history while appreciating the rich cultural heritage embedded in the ancient tombs.

Hatshepsut Temple

The Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, also known as Deir el-Bahri, is indeed an architectural reflection of the earlier mortuary temple of Mentuhotep II. It was constructed alongside the 11th Dynasty structure of Mentuhotep II. Queen Hatshepsut’s temple pays homage to the earlier pharaoh while also serving as a testament to her own reign and achievements. The temple is celebrated for its distinctive design, which features terraces, colonnades, and an innovative layout, making it a significant historical and architectural site in ancient Egypt.

Colossi of Memnon

The Colossi of Memnon are indeed an extraordinary ancient monument that has survived for approximately 3,400 years. These colossal statues, which depict Pharaoh Amenhotep III, are not only remarkable for their size and historical significance but also for their acoustic properties. The statues are known as an acoustic wonder of the ancient world because of the sounds they sometimes produce, believed to be due to temperature and humidity variations.

The Colossi of Memnon are one of the first monuments that tourists see when visiting the west bank of the Nile in Luxor, Egypt. They serve as iconic landmarks and are a popular destination for travelers exploring the archaeological and historical treasures of ancient Egypt.
