In the morning, a Cairo Top Tours representative with an expert guide will be waiting for you at your hotel in Luxor to take you in a private air-conditioned car to enjoy one of the most valuable excursions in Luxor.
Your day trip to the west bank of Luxor with Felucca on the Nile starts with an amazing journey to the Museum of Mummification, which is situated in Luxor on the Nile Corniche, north of the Temple of Luxor. The museum's goal is to showcase the methods of the ancient Pharaonic art of mummification that the ancient Egyptians used for a variety of animals, not just humans, as mummies of cats, fish, and crocodiles are on display. We can also learn about the tools that were employed in the process. Initiated by President Mohamed Hosni Mubarak, the museum
Our tour then proceeded to the Temple of Hatshpesut, where Queen Hatshepsut (c. 1473–1458 BC) constructed a magnificent temple at Deir el-Bahri, on the west bank of Luxor, across from the temple of Karnak, Amun's principal sanctuary on the east banking. Known in ancient Egyptian as "Jisro Jisro," which means "the most sacred of the sacred," Senenmut, who had a number of titles, including director of Amun's properties, constructed the temple dedicated to Hatshepsut.
Next, we visit the Valley of the Kings, also called the "Valley of the Kings," which was used for 500 years, from the sixteenth to the eleventh centuries BC, to construct tombs for the New Kingdom's pharaohs and nobles during the eighteenth through twentieth dynasties of ancient Egypt. The valley is situated in the center of the historic funerary city of Thebes, across from Thebes (modern-day Luxor), on the west bank of the Nile River. The eastern valley, which contains the majority of the royal tombs, and the western valley make up the Valley of the Kings.
At last, you will take in the peace and quiet of the Nile while sailing a felucca at sunset in Luxor. Embark on a peaceful journey along the river and lose yourself in the enchanted ambiance. Watch as a stunning sunset transforms the sky into a golden and orange canvas, providing a captivating setting for your travels. Discover the amazing magnificence of the river landscape, which combines natural beauty with historical history.
Finally, Our tour leader will transfer you back to your hotel in Luxor.
