Tour Overview
A long private drive north: both banks of Luxor, lunch, and the same-evening return to Aswan. This itinerary is "Luxor Day from Aswan by Car". Named stops: Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut, Karnak.
About three and a half hours each way. We only run this when you would rather not fly.
The Valley of the Kings is tomb corridors in hot limestone hills; which tombs open depends on the morning, not on a printed list. Hatshepsut’s terraces sit against the Theban cliffs on the west bank — a mortuary temple, not Karnak’s east-bank forest. Karnak is the hypostyle forest of columns — look up; this is not a five-minute pylon photo.
"Luxor Day from Aswan by Car" is written for Approx. 16 Hrs. Pickup is from the hotel you name; the first stop is the first site on this page, not a coach timetable.
