Luxor Half day Valley Of The King and Hatshepsut and Memnon

Overview

The Luxor Half-day Tour takes you to three of the Nile Valley’s most famous sites: the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut and the Colossi of Memnon. A knowledgeable Egyptologist will guide you as you explore each location and explain their historical and cultural significance. At the Valley of the Kings you will see pharaonic tombs cut into the desert hillsides and learn about the hidden chambers and ancient inscriptions that record royal beliefs and afterlife practices. At the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut you will stand before an impressive terraced temple and hear about Hatshepsut’s reign and how she shaped Egypt’s history. The visit to the Colossi of Memnon will bring you face to face with two towering statues that once flanked a now-lost temple and now remain as striking monuments to the past. Along the way the tour blends history, archaeology and culture, offering a clear picture of the lives and legacies of Egypt’s rulers. Your Egyptologist will provide context and interpretation so you can appreciate the sites’ architecture, inscriptions and historical stories.
