Here, you'll find some of Egypt's best-preserved and beautifully painted tombs, depicting scenes from ancient Egyptian beliefs and the afterlife. You'll also see the Colossi of Memnon, two towering statues that have stood guard over the valley for thousands of years.

After your stay in Luxor, you'll take a short domestic flight to Cairo, one of the largest cities in the Middle East. The final chapter of your journey will take you to the iconic Pyramids of Giza.
