Description:

Head to the West Bank and explore the history surrounding the ancient city of Thebes. Delve into Egypt’s past with a tour of historical monuments, including the world renowned Valley of the Kings. Benefit from your expert guide’s knowledge as you uncover facts about this great civilization.

Cross to the western shores of the majestic Nile and investigate the UNESCO-protected, archeological remains of Thebes. Gaze up at the impressive statues of Colossi Memnon before walking through the Valley of the Kings. Here, magnificent tombs and monuments are hewn into the rock—visit 3 tombs that were filled with rich treasures to accompany the pharaohs into the afterlife.

Continue your tour at the Hatshepsut Temple, hear how the vast mortuary site was built in dedication to the sun god Amon-Ra, and admire the colonnaded façade against the jagged cliff-face. Quiz your private guide on your historical interests to ensure the tour is tailored to your tastes.
