Overnight Luxor from Abu Tig Marina

Day 1: Departing from Abu Tig Marina with a private transfer service, embark on a picturesque 4-hour journey to Luxor from Abu Tig Marina. Along the way, soak in the ever-changing landscapes, from mountains to fertile expanses of land, while your expert guide unravels the rich history of Upper Egypt. Explore the East Bank's extraordinary temples, including the awe-inspiring Temple of Karnak. This magnificent site boasts the remarkable Hypostyle Hall, Sacred Lake, and the Avenue of the Sphinxes. Savour a delectable lunch break at Steigenberger Nile Palace before checking in at your Luxor hotel. Later in the afternoon, you will visit Luxor Temple, known as "Ipet resyt" or the Place of the Seclusion of Amun-Re, before returning to Abu Tig for your overnight stay.

Day 2: Begin your day with an early breakfast and a thrilling exploration of Luxor's West Bank. Discover the legendary Valley of the Kings, also known as the Valley of the Gates of the Kings. This iconic site served as the royal burial ground for nearly 500 years during the New Kingdom period, from the Eighteenth to the Twentieth Dynasties. Carved into the cliffs of a desert wadi on the west bank of the Nile—directly across from ancient Thebes (modern-day Luxor)—this sacred valley is the final resting place of pharaohs and powerful nobles. Nestled within the Theban Necropolis, the Valley is home to some of the most beautifully decorated tombs in Egypt, showcasing intricate wall paintings and hieroglyphs that have survived thousands of years. En route to the East Bank, pause to capture images of the colossal statues of Amenhotep III, famously known as the Colossi of Memnon, which have vigilantly guarded his memorial temple for over 3,400 years. Afterwards, return to your hotel for lunch and check-out. Then, journey back to Abu Tig, concluding this unforgettable experience and leaving you with the memories of Egypt's wonders.
