Itinerary:
Begin your half-day tour with a pickup from your hotel, heading to the East Bank of Luxor. You will be accompanied by a private English-speaking Egyptologist guide to visit the Karnak Temples, the greatest example of worship in history, dedicated to the god Amon, his wife Mut, and their son Khonsu. This complex was constructed from the beginning of the Middle Kingdom to the Graeco-Roman period.
Next, proceed to the Luxor Temple. Built by Amenhotep III in the 18th Dynasty of the New Kingdom and completed by Ramesses II during the 19th Dynasty, King Ramses II, who ruled Egypt for about 67 years, was the most famous king of the 19th Dynasty. This temple was dedicated to the great god Amun-Ra, his wife Mut, and their son Khonsu, representing the Theban triad. Enjoy viewing the Obelisk of Ramses II in front of the First Pylon.
