This Luxor day trip from Marsa Alam offers a unique opportunity to visit the most famous ancient sites of Luxor, the old capital of Thebes, by road. The itinerary covers the largest temple at Karnak on the East Bank, then continues to the West Bank for the most visited tombs, temples and monuments in Upper Egypt.
Pick-up from the hotel in Marsa Alam comes by private air-conditioned vehicle, with the drive to Luxor met by an expert Egyptologist guide at the magnificent Karnak Temple. Built over more than two thousand years by generation after generation of Pharaohs, the complex’s Great Hypostyle Hall is an incredible forest of giant pillars. Lunch at a good-quality restaurant follows en route to the West Bank of the Nile, where the two enormous Colossi of Memnon, statues of Amenhotep III, lead into a journey through the Valley of the Kings, where tombs carved deep into the desert rock reveal treasures from the afterlife of the Pharaohs across three visited tombs. The tour continues to Hatshepsut Temple at El Deir El Bahary, dedicated to Egypt’s only female Pharaoh and rising from the desert plain in terraces that merge with the sheer limestone cliffs. A transfer by air-conditioned vehicle returns travelers to their hotel in Marsa Alam. Lunch is included.
This Cairo and Giza Pyramids day trip from Marsa Alam travels by flight, giving visitors the chance to see the Giza Pyramids and the Sphinx with an Egyptologist guide, then explore the Grand Egyptian Museum before returning to Marsa Alam the same day.
Known for its colorful array of sea life, corals and sea turtles, this snorkeling trip from Marsa Alam departs from Port Ghalib Marina to Marsa El Shone and Marsa Mubarak, a highlight among Marsa Alam snorkeling trips for avid snorkelers and divers.
“Our 5-day Luxor to Aswan Nile cruise on the Movenpick Royal Lotus was absolutely magical. The ship was elegant, the food excellent, and our Egyptologist guide made every temple visit come alive. The sunset views from the deck were breathtaking. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a luxury Egypt experience!”
“I traveled solo and felt completely safe and pampered. The Acamar Nile Cruise was beautiful and comfortable. The temples were even more impressive than I imagined, especially Karnak at sunrise. The crew was attentive and the food was delicious. This Nile cruise tour exceeded all my expectations.”
“We celebrated our 30th anniversary on the Le Fayan Nile Cruise and it was perfect. The ship felt like a floating boutique hotel. The Valley of the Kings at sunrise was emotional and unforgettable. Excellent service and wonderful memories created. We can't wait to return!”
“Abu Simbel is one of the best monuments I've ever seen in my life. The scale and beauty are unbelievable. Our guide was fantastic. This is a must-do on any Egypt itinerary.”
“Aswan was our favorite part — so peaceful and romantic. The Philae Temple at sunset and the Nubian Villages were magical. The Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan was the perfect combination.”
“We celebrated New Year on a Nile cruise and it was spectacular! The gala dinner, fireworks over the Nile, and the ancient temples made it truly special. Best New Year’s Eve of our lives.”
