Description

Embark on a fascinating journey through time on this full-day exploration of Luxor’s East Bank, where two of Egypt’s most magnificent temples stand proudly along the Nile — Karnak and Luxor Temple.
These sacred monuments are not only marvels of ancient architecture but living testaments to Egypt’s spiritual and political power that spanned more than 3,000 years.

Walk the Avenue of Sphinxes, admire colossal statues, and stand beneath towering columns where Pharaohs once performed sacred rituals. The East Bank captures the brilliance of Thebes — the city of the sun — in all its glory.

Karnak Temple Complex
Dedicated to Amun-Ra, the King of the Gods, and expanded over centuries by powerful Pharaohs, Karnak Temple is the largest religious complex ever built.
Stroll along the Avenue of Sphinxes and step into the awe-inspiring Great Hypostyle Hall, where 134 massive columns rise like a forest of stone.
Admire the intricate hieroglyphs that recount stories of faith, battles, and divine rule. Every corner of Karnak echoes with the voices of Egypt’s greatest kings — from Thutmose III to Ramses II.

Luxor Temple
Standing majestically on the Nile’s east bank, Luxor Temple is a masterpiece of harmony and history. Built by Amenhotep III and expanded by Ramses II, this temple was dedicated to the Theban Triad — Amun, Mut, and Khonsu.
Unlike other temples, it wasn’t built for worship but for the Opet Festival, a grand annual celebration symbolizing the renewal of the Pharaoh’s divine power.
Explore colossal statues of Ramses II, elegant papyrus-shaped columns, and hieroglyphic carvings glowing golden at sunset — creating one of the most enchanting sights in all of Egypt.
