Book your Luxor adventure from Sahl Hasheesh today and witness the magic of ancient Egypt like never before.
Your journey begins with an early morning hotel pickup from Sahl Hasheesh. Travel in a private, air-conditioned car across the Eastern Desert, where the first rays of sunlight illuminate the vast dunes. This scenic drive is a quiet prelude to the grandeur of Luxor, ancient Thebes, once the seat of Egyptian pharaohs.
Arriving in Luxor, meet your professional Egyptologist guide for a journey through Karnak Temple, the largest religious complex ever built. Walk beneath soaring columns in the Hypostyle Hall, and marvel at the monumental statues, obelisks, and intricately carved walls. Your guide will reveal the stories of the pharaohs, sacred rituals, and the awe-inspiring power of ancient Egyptian architecture.
Next, explore Luxor Temple, a centerpiece of Thebes, built by Amenhotep III and expanded by Ramses II. Stroll along the Avenue of Sphinxes, connecting Karnak and Luxor Temples, and immerse yourself in the history of the Opet Festival, where pharaohs were celebrated as divine beings. The temple’s dramatic lighting, intricate reliefs, and towering statues offer unparalleled photographic opportunities.
Enjoy a traditional lunch at a riverside restaurant overlooking the Nile. Then check in to your 5-star Luxor hotel for a relaxing overnight stay. The evening is yours to explore the local bazaar, enjoy a quiet walk along the Nile corniche, or attend the Sound & Light Show at Karnak Temple, where ancient history is illuminated and narrated in a spectacular display.
Start your day at dawn with a transfer to the balloon launch site. Experience the breathtaking beauty of a hot air balloon flight over Luxor, gliding silently as the sun rises over the Nile and desert. Witness the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut’s Temple, and Colossi of Memnon from above — a perspective that few ever see. Flight duration is approximately 45–60 minutes, and you’ll receive a commemorative flight certificate to remember this magical moment.
After landing and enjoying breakfast, your guide will take you to the Valley of the Kings, the final resting place of Egypt’s most powerful rulers. Explore three tombs (included) with vivid hieroglyphs and detailed murals. Optional visits to special tombs like Tutankhamun’s are available at an additional fee.
Continue to Queen Hatshepsut’s Temple at Deir el-Bahari, a stunning structure carved into the cliffs. Discover the story of Egypt’s first female pharaoh, a symbol of power, innovation, and grace. This temple is a masterpiece of symmetry and ancient engineering.
Before lunch, pause at the Colossi of Memnon, two enormous statues that have watched over the Theban plain for over 3,000 years. Their grandeur and scale are a striking reminder of Egypt’s golden age.
Enjoy a final Egyptian lunch at a local restaurant before returning to Sahl Hasheesh in your private, air-conditioned vehicle. Reflect on two incredible days exploring Luxor from both sky and ground, filled with memories of temples, tombs, and breathtaking landscapes.
