Your adventure begins with a pick-up from your Luxor hotel in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle.
Start your day with a visit to the magnificent Karnak Temple Complex, the largest ancient religious site in the world. Walk through the impressive Hypostyle Hall, with its towering columns and intricate carvings, and explore the sacred lake, obelisks, and chapels dedicated to various gods and pharaohs. Marvel at the Avenue of Sphinxes, which once connected Karnak to Luxor Temple, and discover the stories engraved in stone that reveal the grandeur of ancient Egyptian civilization.
