Hatshepsut Temple Tour

During the Hatshepsut temple tour, you will explore some of the most remarkable landmarks in Luxor. The journey begins at the Valley of the Kings, one of Egypt’s most iconic archaeological sites, where the richly decorated royal tombs reveal the stories, beliefs, and afterlife journeys of the powerful pharaohs. Each tomb is a masterpiece, adorned with colorful hieroglyphs and symbolic carvings that bring ancient history to life.

Next, you will visit the Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut at Deir El-Bahari, an architectural wonder rising majestically from the desert cliffs. Its three terraces, grand colonnades, and detailed reliefs make it one of the finest examples of ancient Egyptian temple design, dedicated to Egypt’s most successful female ruler.

The tour also includes a stop at the impressive Colossi of Memnon, two massive statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III that have stood tall for thousands of years, guarding the remains of his once-magnificent mortuary temple.
