Ganztägige Tour zu den Ost- und Westufern von Luxor

After a delicious breakfast at your accommodation, your private Egyptologist guide will meet you in a comfortable, air‑conditioned vehicle to begin your full-day Luxor tour, exploring both the West and East Banks.

Tal der Könige

Start on the West Bank at the Tal der Könige, where New Kingdom pharaohs created their eternal resting places within the cliffs. Step inside richly painted tombs as your guide explains the hieroglyphs and wall scenes, revealing tales of the afterlife, royal rituals, and mythic journeys. The cool silence of the tombs contrasts with the bright desert outside, offering a powerful sense of stepping into another world.

Tempel der Hatschepsut (Deir el-Bahari)

Next, visit the stunning Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, elegantly terraced against the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari. Your guide highlights reliefs depicting Hatshepsut’s divine birth and her famous expedition to Punt, while you admire the temple’s harmonious design and sweeping views of the surrounding landscape.

Kolosse von Memnon

A short drive brings you to the Kolosse von Memnon, two colossal quartzite statues of Amenhotep III that have guarded the West Bank for over 3,400 years. Learn the legend of the “singing statue,” a phenomenon that fascinated ancient Greek and Roman visitors.

Mittagessen

Machen Sie eine Pause in einem lokalen Restaurant oder Café für ein frisch zubereitetes Mittagessen mit traditionellen ägyptischen Gerichten.

Karnak-Tempelkomplex

Cross to the East Bank to explore the Karnak-Tempelkomplex, one of the most impressive religious sites in the world. Walk among towering pylons and the Great Hypostyle Hall, featuring 134 massive papyrus-shaped columns, some over 20 meters high. Your guide explains the centuries of construction by different pharaohs and the significance of the sacred lake once used by priests for purification rituals.

Luxor-Tempel

Conclude your day at the elegant Luxor-Tempel, built by Amenhotep III and Ramesses II. Dedicated to the Theban triad — Amun, Mut, and Khonsu — the temple is central to the Opet Festival. Admire its graceful colonnades, statues of Ramesses II, and the mosque of Abu Haggag nestled within, reflecting centuries of spiritual continuity.

Nach dieser unvergesslichen Reise kehren Sie in Ihrem privaten, klimatisierten Fahrzeug zu Ihrer Unterkunft zurück und nehmen bleibende Erinnerungen an Luxors antike Wunder mit.
