Your Itinerary

Your unforgettable Luxor Day Trip by Flight from Sharm El Sheikh begins with an early morning transfer from your hotel to Sharm El Sheikh International Airport. Relax while our representative helps with check-in for your short, comfortable flight to Luxor- Egypt's ancient city of temples, pharaohs, and timeless treasures. On arrival, your private Egyptologist guide will greet you and stay with you throughout this enriching journey through the heart of Egyptian civilization.

Your adventure begins on the East Bank at the Karnak Temple Complex, one of the largest and most impressive religious monuments ever built. Walk through its towering columns, sacred avenues, and monumental pylons as your guide brings to life the stories of the pharaohs who expanded the temple over 2,000 years. The Hypostyle Hall, with its 134 massive columns, is a masterpiece of ancient engineering reflecting the spiritual devotion and artistic genius of the New Kingdom.

After exploring Karnak, enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant in Luxor, chosen for authentic Egyptian flavors and comfort. This relaxing pause lets you reflect on the magnificence you've just seen before continuing your Luxor day tour by plane from Sharm El Sheikh to the city's famous West Bank- the gateway to the afterlife in ancient Egyptian belief.

Crossing the Nile, you'll reach the legendary Valley of the Kings, the burial ground of Egypt's most celebrated rulers. Step into the beautifully decorated tombs of pharaohs such as Tutankhamun, Ramses VI, and Merenptah, each adorned with vivid hieroglyphics and celestial carvings depicting their journey to eternity. Your expert guide highlights the myths, symbols, and preservation secrets that make this valley one of the most important archaeological sites in the world.

Next, ascend to the spectacular Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, a marvel of ancient architecture nestled beneath towering cliffs at Deir el-Bahari. This temple, dedicated to Egypt's most powerful female pharaoh, stands as a symbol of her reign's prosperity and divine authority. Walk through its colonnaded terraces, admire its detailed reliefs, and learn how Hatshepsut defied tradition to rule as both king and queen of Egypt.

Before concluding your Luxor sightseeing, make a final stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two colossal statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III that have stood proudly for over 3,400 years. These majestic stone guardians mark the remnants of his once-magnificent mortuary temple and provide a breathtaking backdrop for memorable photos at sunset.

As your day in Luxor comes to an end, you'll be transferred back to Luxor Airport for your return flight to Sharm El Sheikh. Upon arrival, our team will meet you and drive you comfortably back to your hotel, completing a truly unforgettable journey through the wonders of ancient Egypt.

From the grandeur of Karnak to the mystery of the Valley of the Kings, from the power of Hatshepsut's temple to the silence of the Colossi of Memnon, this Luxor Day Trip by Flight from Sharm El Sheikh offers an all-encompassing exploration of Egypt's royal past.

Шарм-эль-Шейх в Луксор - это незабываемое путешествие! Осмотр храмов Карнака завораживает, а обед в местном ресторане был восхитительным. Долина Царей поражает своими тайнами, а храм царицы Хатшепсут - истинное произведение искусства. Очень рекомендую этот тур!
