Pick up from your hotel or Nile cruise, you will start your tour to the west bank of Luxor starting with the Valley of the Kings (KV) ever since Howard Carter opened up King Tutankhamun’s tomb to reveal the treasures of the boy king, the Valley of the Kings has captured the imaginations of travelers. The vividly painted tombs of Thebes' pharaohs allow visitors a glimpse at the burial rites and death rituals of Ancient Egypt, and today remain Luxor's West Bank's greatest and most popular attraction. There you will have the opportunity to visit 3 tombs there are more than 64 tombs found in the Valley of the Kings and still waiting for more discoveries, after that, the second tour in the West Bank will be to the temple of Queen Hatshepsut located beneath massive cliffs near the west bank of the Nile, the Mortuary Temple Hatshepsut, also known as Deir el Bahri, is dedicated to Amon-Ra, the sun god. Designed by an architect named Senemut, the temple is unique because it was designed like classical architecture. Note the lengthy, colonnaded terrace some of which are 97 ft high, pylons, courts, and hypostyle hall. Inside you'll see the sun court, chapel, and sanctuary. Temple reliefs depict the tale of the divine birth of Queen Hatshepsut and trade expeditions to the Land of Punt (a reference to modern Somalia ) one of the rare reliefs in the Egyptian temples after that have some rest at the Alabaster factory to see the work of the grandsons of the ancient workers and you can get some as souvenirs after that move to the famous gigantic statues known as the Colossi of Memnon. Carved out of hard yellowish-brown sandstone quarried in the hills above Edfu, they represent Amenophis III seated on a cube-shaped throne, and once stood guard at the entrance to the king's temple, of which only scanty traces are left. In Roman Imperial times they were taken for statues of Memnon, son of Eos and Tithonus, who was killed by Achilles during the Trojan War, stop for a photo then have lunch at a traditional restaurant then back to your Hotel, we will transfer you upon your request to any place in Luxor Airport or station.

LIFETIME EXPERIENCE with Look at Egypt Tours

18-Mar-2020

I was very impressed with this company and Ahmed the owner. I, like you had some reservations when it came to booking and researched as well as contacted many companies before Choosing look at Egypt. We visited Cairo, Alexandria, Luxor and Aswan for our honeymoon in December and I was extremely satisfied and happy with the company. From the moment we landed we were greeted at the terminal to pass immigration and until our departure we were well taken care of, the staff even going above and beyond to accommodate any requests we had. The transportations are all brand new vehicles, air conditioned and clean. The tour guides are very knowledgeable and kind. I felt very safe as well in Egypt and look at Egypt tours took care of everything for us so we never had to do anything for ourselves besides enjoy our vacation and feel like kings and queens.

Very well organized Egypt tour...

26-Sep-2023

Very well organized Egypt tour with Look at Egypt tours based in Cairo. We chose them because of great review onTripadvisor and very competitive good price. This is mainly a semi-private tour ( small group of 3-4 couples ) according to our date and what we want to see. Every communication was easily done by email and later via whatsapp. They answer fast to all your inquiry and questions. After we give them what we wish to see and do , Ahmed, the CEO of the company proposes a plan . They organize everything from A to Z with great 5 stars hotel , 5 stars 3 night cruise and all the local flights the entry tickets for every sites and museum. All the local flights We always have a guide and a driver to every historic sites and transfer. The guides are very good and helpful. From the 1st day at Cairo Airport, where Mahmoud greets you inside the airport BEFORE the customs exit. And miraculously, while there were very long waiting lines to pass through the custom agents, Mahmoud makes us pass the customs without any waiting !! And he charges our phone with egyptian SIM card himself. It was a very good thing to have a master guide such as Walid who was the coordonator of all trip . He takes care of you from the first to the last day. After, everything went on smoothly exactly as planned. We had great guides such as Dahlia for the Cairo and pyramids portion, Mu for AbuSimbel and Nile Cruise . They are with you for every transfer by minivan, to airport and to hotels and cruise. The last segment of 4 night in All inclusive Hilton at Hurghada beach in the Red Sea was pure relaxation without any sightseeing ( as we requested) . We truly enjoy our trip with this Company !! ...more ...less

Wonderful and Dedicated Staff and Guides!!

22-Jan-2020

The guide was well informed and was able to share his knowledge an interesting way helping to understand and enjoy life and customs of ancient Egypt. Both guides Muhammed and Remon we had were patient and thoughtful towards us. also the itinerary was a great which enabled us to see the wonders of the ancient world, the hustle and bustle of Cairo as well as visits to the countryside visiting a farmer's home and a Nubian village. The cruise was great, slow paced and able to soak up the Egyptian experience. we highly recommend this tour and Look at Egypt tours ...more ...less

Overall, we had a good...

31-Jan-2025

Overall, we had a good time in Egypt. And our experience with Look at Egypt Tours was mostly good as well. The good: 1. Prompt responses before the deposit was made: responses usually received within a day or two 2. Airport and hotel pickups were always prompt 3. All the drivers and guides were friendly 4. The tours were mostly private, except during the Nile cruise portion 5. We used our own hotels and the final tour cost was adjusted accordingly 6. All the vans that were provided by the company were clean and comfortable. The not-so-good: 1. Two weeks before our departure, I sent off a list of questions and did not receive a response until 8 days later. During the wait, I had to wonder if the company was still in business. 2. The tour manager applied high pressure to sell optional tours. We did the hot balloon ride in Luxor. And that's the only one we'd do again. The night Nile cruise with dinner and belly dance was the worst. We did this tour after flying back with Aswan after 7 pm. We boarded the boat at 8:15 pm. The dances started soon. The volume of the music was torturous. The main dancer was middle-aged and unattractive. And she was not even an Arab per our driver. The dinner was served around 9:30. I was starving by then. The sound and light shows of the Giza pyramids were just ok. The pyramids were dimly lit. 3. On the last day, we purchased another optional tour for Grand Egyptian Museum. It was advertised as a half day tour . But the company did not add a half-day time to our original tour schedule. We got about 90 minutes extra time at best. ...more ...less
