Overview

Day trip from Hurghada to Luxor by bus: Karnak Temple, Valley of the Queens and Hatshepsut Temple, with a guide, lunch and hotel pick-up. Four days a week.

Luxor is a long way from Hurghada, but you can see its most famous sights in a single day. This shared trip takes you by air-conditioned bus to Karnak Temple, the Valley of the Queens and the Temple of Hatshepsut, with a professional guide, lunch, and hotel pick-up and drop-off included. The bus takes up to 40 passengers.

Karnak Temple

Your guide takes you through Karnak Temple in Luxor. The entrance ticket is included.

The Valley of the Queens

You then visit the Valley of the Queens with your guide. The entrance ticket is included.

The Temple of Hatshepsut and the Colossi of Memnon

Your next stop is the Temple of Hatshepsut, with the entrance ticket included. You also see the Colossi of Memnon on the way.

Lunch and a local shop

You have lunch at a local restaurant, and the trip includes one visit to a local shop, where you can see alabaster and papyrus.

A long day, planned for comfort

The bus leaves Hurghada at 04:00 and travels to Luxor with a police security convoy. The drive to Luxor takes about 5 hours, and you are back at your hotel at around 22:00.

A guide in your language

Your guide speaks English, German, Russian or French at no extra charge. A guide in Italian, Polish or Spanish can be arranged for an extra fee per group, so please ask us when you book.

Four days a week, on a shared bus

The bus runs every Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. It is a shared trip, so you travel with other guests. The exact pick-up time depends on your hotel and is confirmed after booking, and the itinerary may change.

Tips for the day

Ask your hotel reception the evening before for a breakfast box, because breakfast is not served at 04:00. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes for walking, bring sun cream and a hat, and charge your phone or camera.
