Luxor Full Day West & East Bank

See the best of Luxor in a single action-packed day that covers the highlights of both the West and East Banks. Start early on the West Bank with the Valley of the Kings, where you explore three royal tombs adorned with vivid wall paintings. Continue to the magnificent Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari and stop for photos at the Colossi of Memnon. After lunch at a restaurant with Nile views, cross to the East Bank and visit the colossal Karnak Temple Complex. Walk through the Great Hypostyle Hall and explore the sacred lake. End the day at Luxor Temple, ideally as the afternoon light creates a golden glow on the ancient sandstone. This is the most comprehensive way to experience Luxor and is ideal for visitors with limited time who want to see it all.
