Luxor, Luxor, Egypt our tour guide will pick you up from your hotel to enjoy the west bank tour 30 minutes
Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari, Luxor, Egypt Thanks to its design and decorations, the Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir El-Bahri is one of the most distinctive temples in all of Egypt. It was built of limestone, not sandstone like most of the other funerary temples of the New Kingdom period.
Temple of Hatshepsut
It is thought that Senimut, the genius architect who built this Temple, found inspiration in his design by the plan of the neighboring mortuary, Temple of the 12th Dynasty King, Neb-Hept-Re. The Temple was built to commemorate the achievements of the great Queen Hatshepsut (18th Dynasty), and as a funerary Temple for her, as well as a sanctuary of the god, Amon Ra. 60 minutes
Valley of The Kings, Luxor, Egypt The Valley of the Kings is an astounding location where 62 Pharaohs are buried. This royal cemetery is located on Luxor's west bank, down the only entrance, a long narrow winding path.
This was a secret place, where sentries guarded the entrance, as well as the tops of the hills to discourage tomb robbers.
In the past, they had plundered all royal tombs, including the treasures of the pyramids! Some thefts were probably carefully planned, but others were spur of the moment, as when an earlier tomb was accidentally discovered while cutting a new one and workmen took advantage of the opportunity.
This may have happened when KV 46 was found during the cutting of KV 4 or KV 3 nearby. The tombs in the Valley range from a simple pit (e.g. KV 54), to a tomb with over 121 chambers and corridors ( KV 5).
120 minutes
Colossi of Memnon, Luxor, Egypt Dating back to the New Kingdom, the 18th Dynasty, during the reign of Amenhotep III, The Colossi of Memnon is a mortuary temple located in Thebes. The mortuary temple of the pharaoh is guarded by two, 20-meter-high statues that were severely damaged during a 27 BC earthquake. The temple has now been destroyed completely and all that remains is the 23 meters high statue of Amenhotep III which weighs around a thousand ton. The statues, even after such destruction by natural and manly action, seem to be an impressive piece.

60 minutes
Temple of Karnak, Luxor, Egypt While the Temple of Karnak might be the largest temple in the world, the site is actually hosted to a group of temples, including the Great Temple of Amon Ra, The Temple of Khonso, The Ipt Temple, The Temple of Ptah, the Temple of Montho and the Temple of the God Osiris. A 20m high, mud brick enclosure wall surrounds all of these buildings. It is as if you are walking through a city built of temples and it is quite an amazing feeling to stroll through them. You can feel the ancient history. It is alive, as it swirls around you.
60 minutes
Luxor Temple, Luxor, Egypt Luxor Temple, or The Temple of Luxor, is among the most beautiful temples throughout Egypt. During the New Kingdom, it was known in as Ipt-Rsyt, or the southern shrine, in order to differentiate between this temple and Karnak Temple, located at the northern house of Amon Ra.

Because I only stayed in Cairo, this tour made me satisfied to see what I wanted. And he told me a lot of his knowledge. Every time I surprised and enjoyed!!
In addition, for me it was hard to walk across the street due to heavy traffic, so moving on the car was easy and quickly. I strongly recommend this tour! Thanks alot!

How amazing is it that I had the privilege of experiencing the wonders of Egypt with a tour guide that is a masters student of archeology?! Ehab was fantastic; went out of his way to accommodate our every need while simultaneously making me actually educated about what we were seeing via a conversational technique that resulted in me remembering details. I appreciated that because his passion was being conveyed through true excitement rather than pre-fab talking points. His driver - Hussen - was great as well. They made us feel extremely safe in what is the real life “Grand Theft Auto” experience of driving in Egypt. Highly recommend Ehab!!!
