Luxor and Cairo two days tours from Marsa Alam

Get ready for an overnight trip to Luxor. We will collect you from your hotel in Marsa Alam in a private, air-cooled vehicle. Then you can settle in and enjoy the ride. When you arrive, your own tour guide will greet you and stay with you all day.

First stop: Karnak Temple. This is the biggest temple site ever made. It covers about 247 acres. You will see three main temple areas, plus smaller enclosed temples and several outside shrines. It reflects the work of many builders over many years, with pharaohs adding to what came before.

Many tombs are found here, including those of Ramses II and Tutankhamun. The walls are covered with detailed scenes. The artwork is still in good condition, so you get a clear look at Egypt’s royal life.

Then head to the Hatshepsut Temple. It is among the best kept temples from Ancient Egypt. You will notice it is built on three levels. In the middle, two wide ramps connect the levels. The design feels well planned and stands out even today.

Afterward, you will see the Colossi of Memnon. These are two huge stone statues of King Amenhotep III. They are all that is left of a mortuary temple. The statues were carved from quartzite sandstone and were moved from Cairo to Luxor, which is about 700 km.
