Overview of your Luxor tour:

I want this trip to become a little Egyptology course in which each visit serves to learn a little more about the immense culture of ancient Egypt. Regardless, I will also try to bring you closer to the Egypt of today: to the friendliness of our people (who will not hesitate to chat with you and invite you to tea), without forgetting, either, that tourism is one of their most important sources of income. We will visit the Valley of the Kings to learn about the royal tombs and how they work. then we will learn about other sorts of funerary constructions, the place where those who made those tombs used, and the country itself. We will also see the city of Luxor and its temples! The idea of this tour is based on something as simple (and at the same time, complex) as taking a trip on which you can learn beyond seeing, feel beyond consuming and imagine, beyond contemplating. Don't wait anymore, join me and let me help you start your own adventure!

Your Luxor tour itinerary

·In the early morning, after picking you up from an arranged location, we'll move to visit The Valley of the Kings, where you'll get to know some of the royal tombs and their history, plus information about art and sculptures in the era of the Egyptian state. Not every tomb is open every day, so we'll always have different choices depending on the day of the tour. ·2 hours later, you'll get to know the city of artisans and engineers who made the Valley of the Kings with their hands, Deir el Medina. We'll explore its entrances, exits, schools, markets & temples. ·Later, we'll identify three tombs made for workers, where the size is smaller than the tombs of the kings, but they contain great beauty, which is enhanced after having seen the city where those who used their hands to make that beauty and art used to live. ·At the end of the trip, we will get acquainted with two statues of King Amenhotep III, who are known as the Colossi of Memnon. ·Lastly I'll drop you off at your lodging or preferred location.
