About this tour

Join a Luxor trip from Hurghada and travel from the Red Sea coast to the heart of ancient Egypt. This full-day private tour takes you to the legendary city of Luxor, often called the world’s largest open-air museum.

Explore both banks of the Nile with your personal Egyptologist guide, from the hidden tombs of the Valley of the Kings, where royalty like Tutankhamun rests, to the towering columns of Karnak Temple and the sacred chambers of Luxor Temple. Along the way, you’ll also witness the iconic Colossi of Memnon, standing tall on the west bank for over 3,000 years.

With Respect Tours, you don’t just visit ancient sites; you step into their stories.
We bring you “Egypt through local eyes.”

This isn’t just a tour. It’s time travel, and the Pharaohs are waiting.

Itinerary

  Luxor trip from Hurghada

 

Your day begins early with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in Hurghada, El Gouna, or Sahl Hasheesh. Relax in a private, air-conditioned vehicle as you journey across the Eastern Desert toward the ancient city of Luxor.  

 

Begin on the East Bank with a guided visit to Karnak Temple, the largest religious complex in ancient Egypt, followed by the stunning Luxor Temple, known for its towering columns and sphinx-lined avenue.  

 

After a lunch break, cross the Nile to the West Bank. Explore three royal tombs in the Valley of the Kings, once home to the resting places of pharaohs like Tutankhamun. Finally, stop by the imposing Colossi of Memnon, two massive statues that once guarded the mortuary temple of Amenhotep III.   

 

After some time for photos and reflection, your guide and driver will take you back to Hurghada, arriving in the evening with a head full of stories and a heart full of awe.

Thank you all for your great support and for making the experience smooth and pleasant. I highly appreciate your efforts and look forward to using your service again in the future.

Best travel agency This review is a true evidence to the great experience and happiness I had with this company. Honestly I've never dealt with people like the team at Respect Tours. They are incredibly friendly and welcoming especially Mr. David Asaad who is one of the most wonderful people I've ever met. He is very kind easy to get along with and has a big heart. His professionalism was outstanding and he is also a great leader with confidence and knowledge I would also like to give a special thanks to our driver Mohsen. He was very friendly helpful and professional throughout our trips and made us feel comfortable and well taken care of. I truly thank the wonderful Respect Tours team and wish them continued success and all the best.
