Tour Overview
Fly south at dawn, walk both banks, and return to Cairo the same night. This itinerary is "Luxor Day from Cairo by Flight". Named stops: Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut, Karnak, Luxor Temple.
A compressed Thebes day for guests who cannot spare a Nile night. Seats are quoted after we see dates.
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 Temple is the east-bank colonnade in the living town, often held for late light — a different hour from Karnak.
