Day 2 — Luxor East and West Banks

Begin the morning on the East Bank with a visit to Karnak Temple, a vast complex of sanctuaries, pylons, and hypostyle halls that served as the religious and administrative center of the New Kingdom. Construction here spanned more than 1,500 years and involved generations of pharaohs.

Cross to the West Bank after lunch to explore the Valley of the Kings, where your ticket grants access to three royal tombs. Continue to the Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir al-Bahari, a three-tiered colonnade structure built across the Nile from Karnak. End with the Colossi of Memnon before your transfer back to Hurghada.
