Overview
Discover Egyptian history on this six-hour guided tour and explore its top sites:Starting from meeting your guide Egyptologist, you'll travel towards Luxor West Bank passing by the Luxor Bridge until reaching the staggering Colossi of Memnon, and two 60-foot stone statues that have stood for more than 3,000 years. Marvel at the Valley of Nobles with its hundreds of rock-cut tombs carved in the hillside. Then, you'll see one of Egypt's best-preserved and most interesting temples called Medinat Habu, whilst hearing how it's one of the few monuments in Egypt to convey the emotional impact that religious art and architecture must have had on the ancient Egyptians. Next, at the Ramesseum, you'll explore what Amelia Edwards wrote as "the warm limestone of which it is built seems to have mellowed and turned golden with time. No walls enclose it. No towering pylons overshadow it. It stands high, and the air circulated freely”.
