Cross the Nile to the western bank, the ancient burial ground of Thebes, and begin your exploration of Egypt’s most iconic monuments. The first stop is the Colossi of Memnon, two monumental statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III that have stood for over three millennia, guarding the entrance to his long-lost mortuary temple. Continue to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut at Deir El-Bahari, a breathtaking structure carved into the cliffs, celebrated for its symmetry and grandeur. Afterward, enjoy a relaxing lunch at a local restaurant before heading to the Valley of the Kings, the royal necropolis of the New Kingdom. Here, you’ll enter several tombs adorned with vivid wall paintings that tell the stories of the pharaohs’ journey to the afterlife, including the world-famous tomb of Tutankhamun discovered in 1922. Your journey continues to Medinet Habu, the mortuary temple of Ramses III, renowned for its remarkably preserved reliefs depicting scenes of battle and divine rituals.
