We'll pick you up from your hotel in Hurghada by private air-conditioned taxi and take you on a scenic drive to Dendera temple, which is approximately 231 km away. Upon arrival, you'll have the opportunity to visit the Temple of Hathor, which was constructed during the Late Ptolemaic period. You'll marvel at the incredible design of the temple, which is in accordance with other classical Egyptian temples. You'll also see scenes portraying the Ptolemaic rulers, including a massive relief of Cleopatra VII and her son by Julius Caesar and co-ruler Ptolemy XV. Afterwards, we'll drive you to Luxor to visit the Temple of Karnak, the largest ancient religious site known anywhere in the world. You'll be amazed by the impressive size of the temple complex, which covers 247 acres of land. Following your visit, you'll enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant on the west bank. Then, you'll visit the Valley of the Kings, which is the final resting place of Egypt's rulers from the 18th to the 20th dynasty. You'll have the opportunity to explore tombs, including the great Pharaoh Ramses II and boy Pharaoh Tutankhamun. The tombs are well-preserved and stocked with all the material goods a ruler might need in the afterlife. If you wish to visit the Tomb of The Young Pharaoh Tutankhamon, it costs an additional 200 Egyptian Pounds. You'll also have a chance to see the Colossi of Memnon, which are two massive stone statues of King Amenhotep III and the only remains of a complete mortuary temple. The two statues, known as the Colossi of Memnon, rise about 18 meters from the plain and are the remains of what was once the largest complex on the west bank, built by Amenhotep the Third. The statues are made from blocks of quartzite sandstone, which were moved 700 km to Luxor from Cairo. Finally, we'll transfer you back to your hotel in Hurghada by private air-conditioned vehicle. We hope you enjoy your private day tour to Dendera and Luxor, and we're here to help make your trip as safe and comfortable as possible.
