Upon the family’s arrival in Luxor, the 5-day Nile cruise tour will commence, beginning with a meeting with the tour guide who will lead the family members to discover the marvels of the East Luxor bank:
The Karnak Temple Complex is regarded as one of the most popular sites and the largest and oldest open-air religious museum. It was built and expanded over a period of more than 1,500 years, from the Middle Kingdom (2000–1700 BCE) to the Ptolemaic Kingdom (305–30 BCE), covering 247 acres. The complex features the Great Hypostyle Hall, several precincts dedicated to Amun-Re and Mut, among others.
The entire family will proceed to board their 5-star Nile cruise in Luxor for lunch, relaxation, and then continue in the evening to visit:
Luxor Temple, constructed around 1400 BC, served as the venue for religious festivals and the coronation ceremonies of Pharaohs such as Ramses the Great and Amenhotep III, symbolizing the authority of ancient Egyptian royalty and beliefs. During the New Kingdom period (1570 – 1050 BC), the Opet Festival was celebrated here to renew the power of kingship and to honor the fertility god Amun-Re. The grand Avenue of Sphinxes links Luxor Temple to the impressive Karnak Temple Complex.

For over 500 years during the New Kingdom period (1570 – 1050 BC), the Valley of the Kings remained a timeless marvel concealed within the heart of a symbolic hill. It houses 63 golden tombs belonging to some of the most prominent and innovative kings and queens in ancient Egyptian history, including Tutankhamun, Seti I, the entire Ramses Dynasty, and many others.
The Holy of Holies at Hatshepsut Temple is a remarkable work of art, carved into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari in the 15th century BC. It features three levels and was designed to host the valley festival in the sanctuary of Amun, along with several shrines dedicated to Hathor, Anubis, and Amun.
The two magnificent Colossi of Memnon statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III were relocated from Cairo to Luxor to celebrate his legacy and highlight his heritage and family history.
