Description

Begin your experience with a private pickup from your hotel in Luxor. Travel comfortably in an air-conditioned vehicle to Karnak Temple, the largest religious complex ever built in ancient Egypt.
Meet your professional guide and step inside this monumental site, which was expanded by generations of pharaohs over more than 1,500 years. Walk through vast courtyards, towering pylons, and the breathtaking Great Hypostyle Hall, where massive columns rise above you, carved with hieroglyphs and sacred scenes.
Your guide will explain the importance of Karnak as the spiritual heart of ancient Thebes, the role of the god Amun, and how kings such as Seti I, Ramses II, and Hatshepsut left their mark on the temple. Visit the Sacred Lake, admire ancient obelisks, and uncover the rituals and ceremonies once held within these walls.
With a private guide, you can explore at your own pace, ask questions freely, and gain a deeper understanding of one of Egypt’s most extraordinary monuments.
