Day 1 · Arrival in Cairo

Transfer to the airport for your confirmed flight connection from Marsa Alam to Cairo. Your local representative meets you on arrival.

Day 2 · Explore Luxor and return to Marsa Alam

Coordinate with your driver for a transfer to the airport to board the domestic flight from Cairo to Luxor specified in your confirmed itinerary, with ground reception waiting upon arrival. Visit the vast Karnak Temple complex on Luxor's East Bank, walking through the Great Hypostyle Hall of 134 columns, royal pylons, and sacred precincts dedicated to Amun-Ra. Cross to the West Bank of Luxor to enter the Valley of the Kings, visiting the rock-cut royal tombs included in the standard admission while noting that special tombs like Tutankhamun require a separate ticket. Continue to the terraced mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari, set dramatically against the desert cliffs. Pause at the Colossi of Memnon, the twin seated statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III guarding the Theban necropolis.
