Private Tour: Luxor Day Trip from Hurghada, Including Valley of the Kings

Get an early start with pickup at your centrally located hotel in Hurghada, and begin the 3.5-hour trip to Luxor in a climate-controlled minivan. You’ll enjoy views of the desert landscape along the way.

Your guide will share some background on ancient Egyptian history and culture before the first stop of the day in the Valley of the Kings, where you’ll choose three fascinating tombs to visit, with the option to purchase additional tickets to King Tutankhamun’s tomb.

Next, head to the Temple of Hatshepsut, a monument to Egypt’s only female pharaoh. You’ll also see the Colossi of Memnon, and visit an island on the Nile for a traditional Egyptian lunch. Return to ancient Egypt in the massive Karnak Temple, and then cool off with a 30-minute felucca cruise along the Nile. The day concludes with return transfer to your hotel in Hurghada.
