You will start your day tour by meeting your tour guide and then exploring all the Luxor tourist attractions on the west bank such as:
Valley of the Queens
Valley of the Queens is where the mummies of the most beautiful and powerful Queens are buried, plus important members of the royal family are buried. It is located on the West Bank of Luxors Theban Necropolis near the Valley of the Kings. It was known as "TA-set-Neferu" (The Place of Beauty) during the Egypt kingdom (1570-1050 BC). Like the Valley of the Kings it has an unimpressive exterior design to not draw the intention of Looters and tomb raiders. It holds over 75 tombs from the 19th and 20th dynasties.
Habu Temple
In your day tour to Luxors west bank you will visit the temple that was called Djant where the sky opened and the creator god Amun made his appearance for the first. It was constructed in the Kingdom (1570-1050 BC) by both Hatshepsut and Tuthmosis III and later on Ramses III built his larger memorial temple. The entire temple complex was designed as a copy of a Migdol fortress which was surrounded by a gigantic fortified enclosure wall with a unique gateway at the eastern entrance known as the pavilion gate. Also it holds a canal with a harbor outside of the entrance connecting the temple to the Nile River.
Lunch Time
You will then have your lunch at a restaurant in Luxor and get ready to visit:
Deir El-Medina
It's the cemetery of the workmen located at the west of the village on the slope of the Theban hills built in the 19th dynasty. The tombs had been turned into a family burial site of the descents of the owners. A number of babies & children were buried in the courses of the eastern hill in baskets boxes pottery jars and coffins while in the higher levels the mummies from the 18th dynasty of the adult were stored.
Ramesseum Temple
On the west bank of the Nile, in Luxor lies the Funerary temple of Ramses II (1279-1213 BC). The entire temple was dedicated to the creator god Amun. To be the immortal resting place of Ramses the Great. The temple contains a 57 ft (17m) statue of Ramses II and the walls of the Ramesseum contain beautiful decorations depicting the battle of Kadesh, the Syrian Wars and the Festival of Min.

The honest response is that a single day in Luxor is insufficient.
