Early morning departure from your hotel in Hurghada via private, air-conditioned bus for the long drive to Luxor.

Upon arrival in Luxor, your discovery tour begins on the East Bank.

You will start at the enormous Karnak Temple, the largest temple complex ever built by man, representing the combined achievement of many generations of ancient builders. Your guide will walk you through the three main temples, the smaller enclosed temples, and the magnificent Hypostyle Hall.
