Luxor Tours

Being in Egypt, don’t let Luxor Tours pass you by. Luxor city is one of the major cities of Egypt as it was the ancient capital of Egypt during one of Egypt’s most important historical and Pharaonic eras, The New Kingdom or as the scholars described it, “the golden era of Egypt”. At that time its name was Thebes, but the current name Luxor was derived from the Arabic name “Al-Aksor”, which means palaces, given to it by the Arabs when they got astonished by seeing the great temples and they thought they are palaces.


The Nile divides Luxor to eastern and western banks. The ancient Egyptians used the Eastern on for erecting the cult temples; so you can enjoy Luxor tours at the East bank to visit temples of Luxor and Karnak where massive columns have been erected and decorated. Due to the ancient belief that the west is the kingdom of death, the Egyptians at that time dedicated the western bank for building great mortuary temples such as Ramesseum Temple and that of Queen Hatshebsut at Deir Al-Bahary and the royal necropolis of the Valley of the Kings, where you can see large rock cut tombs belong to the New Kingdom Kings, specially tombs of  Tutankhamen and  Ramses IV . Luxor Tours to the west bank also includes visits to Valley of the Queens and Valley of Nobles.
