Luxor. The place where Egypt’s biggest VIPs built their dream homes—for the afterlife. It’s an all-day trip from Hurghada, but trust me, this one’s worth every minute.
First stop? The Valley of the Kings. It’s where Egypt’s most famous pharaohs—including the legend himself, Tutankhamun—were buried. You walk into these tombs, and the walls are covered in 4,000-year-old artwork that still looks unreal. Then, we move on to Karnak Temple, a place so massive it feels like an ancient city on its own. Obelisks, giant statues, and halls full of pillars that make you feel tiny—it’s pure history overload.
And because Egypt knew how to honour a queen, you’ll visit Hatshepsut’s Temple—the one that basically screams power and elegance at the same time. Then, it’s a quick stop at the Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone figures that have been standing there for thousands of years, watching the world change.
It’s not just a tour—it’s like stepping into a time machine.
