My OperaDay Trip to Luxor from Sharm by Flight
Monday, May 13, 2013 4:06:15 PM
Spend your valuable vacation time with Excursion Egypt visiting the Valley of the Kings, Luxor Temple, Hatshepsut Temple and of course the impressive Karnak Temple.
We will be more than happy to pick you up from your hotel in air conditioned private vehicle to Sharm El Sheikh Airport to fly to Luxor where you will be met and accompanied by our Egyptologist tour guide.
Karnak Temple>>
Although badly ruined, no site in Egypt is more impressive than Karnak. It is the largest temple complex ever built by man, and represents the combined achievement of many generations of ancient builders. The Temple of Karnak is actually three main temples, smaller enclosed temples, and several outer temples located about 3 kilometers north of Luxor on 100ha (247 acres) of land.
Valley of the Kings>>
The king's formal names and titles are inscribed in his tomb along with his images and statues. Beginning with the 18th Dynasty and ending with the 20th, the kings abandoned the Memphis area and built their tombs in Thebes.
Hatshepsut Temple>>
Visit the temple of Queen Hatshepsut with its unique design - the only temple in Egypt built in terrace formation into the cliff face. The relief sculpture within the temple recites the tale of the divine birth of a female pharaoh ? the first of its kind, along with the first commercial trading expedition to the ancient land of Punt (today?s Somalia).
