Valley of the Kings Private Tour with Hatshepsut Temple and Colossi of Memnon
This private Luxor tour takes you across the West Bank to three of Egypt's most significant archaeological sites in a single day. You'll explore the royal burial ground of the Valley of the Kings, where pharaohs like Tutankhamun were laid to rest in elaborately decorated tombs. Your expert guide provides personalised insight as you walk through these ancient passageways and chambers.
The tour continues to the Temple of Hatshepsut, built into the dramatic cliffs of Deir el-Bahari. This architectural marvel honours one of Egypt's most powerful female pharaohs, with impressive colonnades and detailed reliefs telling her story. Your final stop is the Colossi of Memnon, where two massive statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III have stood guard over the ancient mortuary temple ruins for thousands of years.
With roundtrip hotel transfers in an air-conditioned vehicle and lunch at a local restaurant included, this private tour handles all the logistics so you can focus on the experience. Perfect for those wanting to see Luxor's highlights without the crowds of group tours.

Good to Know
Hotel pickup is included from your Luxor accommodation. The tour covers significant walking across uneven terrain, so comfortable shoes and sun protection are essential. Standard tomb entries are included, but access to special tombs like Tutankhamun's requires an additional fee payable on site.
The sites are not wheelchair accessible due to the ancient terrain and steps. Children are welcome but must be supervised at all times. Your guide will meet you at your hotel for morning departure, and you'll return in the late afternoon after lunch.
If you're planning more time in Luxor, consider pairing this West Bank adventure with an East Bank tour of Karnak and Luxor Temples. For those interested in river experiences, a traditional felucca sailing trip on the Nile offers a peaceful contrast to the historical sites.
