Conquer ancient Egypt's most iconic West Bank trio — the mortuary temple of Hatshepsut, the towering Colossi of Memnon, and the Valley of the Kings — in a single, unhurried private day with a dedicated Egyptologist from Safaga.
What to expect
Your journey begins at Safaga Port and crosses to the West Bank of Luxor via the Nile ferry or bridge. The Colossi of Memnon — two 18-metre quartzite statues of Amenhotep III — make a jaw-dropping first stop. The terraced Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari, carved into a natural amphitheatre of cliffs, is one of Egypt's most architecturally breathtaking structures. The Valley of the Kings crowns the day: your guide navigates the hierarchy of tombs, steering you toward the finest painted chambers. Lunch at a local Luxor restaurant is typically included.
Good to know
Full-day excursion; allow 10–11 hours door-to-door from Safaga. Valley of the Kings standard ticket covers 3 tombs; Tutankhamun's and Seti I's tombs require separate tickets (EGP 360–500 each). Comfortable footwear is essential — temple floors are uneven. Book private Egyptologist guide well in advance during Oct–Apr high season.
