Trip to Karnak and Luxor Temples on the Nile’s East Bank Embark on a mesmerizing Trip to Karnak and Luxor, where history comes alive through grand temples and legendary monuments. This 4-hour private tour takes you to two of Egypt’s most iconic landmarks—the Temples of Karnak and Luxor Temple—on the Nile’s East Bank. Led by an expert Egyptologist guide, you’ll uncover the secrets of these ancient wonders, built over 3,000 years ago.
Your Trip to Karnak and Luxor begins with a convenient pickup from your Luxor hotel or Nile cruise port. Travel comfortably in a private air-conditioned minivan as your guide shares fascinating insights about Thebes, the ancient capital of Egypt, and the significance of Karnak Temple, the largest religious complex ever constructed.
Your first stop is the awe-inspiring Karnak Temple, a vast complex developed by generations of pharaohs, including Ramses II and Amenhotep III. Walk along the legendary Avenue of the Sphinxes, leading to the temple’s towering entrance. Inside, marvel at the Hypostyle Hall, where 134 massive columns rise like an ancient stone forest. Learn how these colossal structures were built using ingenious ancient techniques.
Explore the temple’s inner sanctuaries, courtyards, and the sacred lake, where pharaohs once performed purification rituals. Your guide will reveal the temple’s hidden stories before giving you free time to wander at your own pace.
Next, continue your Trip to Karnak and Luxor with a visit to Luxor Temple, a stunning monument built around 1400 BC. Admire the towering statues of Ramses II at the entrance and the remaining obelisk—its twin now stands in Paris’ Place de la Concorde.
Step inside to discover beautifully preserved hieroglyphics, grand columns, and chapels, including a shrine dedicated to Alexander the Great. Your guide will explain how this temple evolved under different rulers, blending pharaonic, Greek, and Roman influences.
