Tour Plan
On day three, you will enjoy your breakfast at the hotel, then accompany your Egyptologist tour guide to explore all the famous Luxor tourist attractions such as:
Valley of the Kings.
The valley of the kings is like a time capsule located in the heart of the holy mountain which has acted as the final resting place of the greatest kings and queens of Egypt's new kingdom (1570-1070 BC). It holds 63 tombs filled with various enchanting treasures, artifacts, statues, hypnotically beautiful decorations, and the remains of pharaohs like Rameses (I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, IX, X), Amenhotep I, Hatshepsut, and the famous King Tutankhamun which all resulted in the valley becoming a World Heritage Site by the UNESCO in 1979.
Queen Hatshepsut Temple.
The Hatshepsut Temple is renowned for being the beauty of Luxor, it gained the name Djoser-Djeseru (Holy of Holies) and showcases the might & will of one of the most successful rulers in the history of ancient Egypt Queen Hatshepsut. The temple was designed in 1479 BC and took 15 years to construct. The design of the temple is based on the concept of Classical Architecture of the new kingdom and within the temple lies some of the most impressive statues, decorations, and artifacts in all of Egypt.
Colossi of Memnon.
Colossi of Memnon is different than most of the monuments in Upper Egypt, it has been known as the colossal guardians of Luxor. They are basically two massive blocks of quartzite sandstone standing at the height of 18 m (60ft) weighing 720 tons each and have the shape of Pharaoh Amenhotep III(1386-1350). The colossi were damaged due to a large earthquake in 27 BC but were rebuilt again in 199 AD. The statues gained quite a fame during the Greco-Roman period due to The Vocal Memnon which resulted from the statues singing from time to time which were nothing more than the sound of the wind passing through the statue at dawn.
Lunch Time.
Then move to have your lunch on an island, so your tour includes a boat trip in the Nile River followed by a tour to:
Karnak Temple.
Karnak temple is one of the holiest places on the face of the planet, it was known as Ipet-isu The Most Selected Of Places, and Pr-Imn House Of Amon, it dates to more than 4000 years and is the largest religious man-made construction in the world & also the biggest open-air museums on earth. It was the heart of the religious worship of the entire ancient Egyptian kingdom for more than 1500 years to various deities but was dedicated primarily to the Theban triad that consisted of God Amun with his wife the Goddess of Justice Mut and his son the moon god Khnsou, plus other gods like the great Osiris, Montu, Ptah and Isis.

The High Dam.
The High Dam represents the modern might of the city of Aswan, the dam was constructed between 1960 & 1970 during the reign of president Gamal Adel-Nasser. The dam was designed as a cooperation project with the Moscow-based Hydro project Institute to have better control over Nile flooding, generate Hydroelectricity, and provide increased water storage for irrigation in its reservoir lake Nasser.
The Unfinished Obelisk.
The Unfinished Obelisk is a tale that was sadly left unfinished, it was ordered by Queen Hatshepsut (1508-1458 BC) to stand at the entrance of the Karnak temple. It was known as "Tekhenu" which means to pierce the sky" and shows how obelisks were created from scratch and the method of construction of Ancient Egypt, it reached the height of 42 m and weighed 1200 tons. Unfortunately, the obelisk was cracked during construction and remained at the same location even today.
