Tour Plan

1. Hotel pickup and visiting the valley of the queens

Your Egyptologist tour guide will pick you up from your hotel in Luxor to travel to the west bank, where your day tour will begin. You will first visit The Valley of the Queens, also known as "ta-set-neferu," which means "the place of the beauty," and used as a final resting place for members of the royal family (1500–1070 BCE). About 90 tombs have been discovered there thus far; queens, princesses, and princes. Although their graves were far smaller than the pharaohs' tombs when they were buried here, the walls of their tombs managed to preserve their colours perfectly.

2. Visiting Habu Temple, Tombs of the Nobles and Tombs of the Workers

We'll visit The Ramesses III's funerary temple, the Habu Temple. It is Luxor's second-largest temple after Karnak and is decorated with battle images and writings that depict Ramesses III's triumph over the sea people.
We'll continue our day tour to the Valley of the Nobles (Tombs of the Nobles) This tomb features some exquisite unique paintings of grapevines and harvest-related sceneries.
The tomb of the Noble Ramose, one of the grandest tombs featured in this tour, provides a glimpse of life at that period under the leadership of Akhenaten, one of the first kings to adhere to the monotheistic creed.

We'll Visit the Valley of the Workers (Tombs), also known as Dier El Medina, the settlement where the workers or the royal tombs lived and constructed their tombs; despite their little size, they are quite stunning!

Finally, our representative will drive you back to your hotel.
