A separate ticket is required for entry within the confines of Karnak Temple in Luxor, Egypt.

The Karnak Temple Complex is a vast assemblage of temples, pylons, chapels, and various structures in different states of preservation, situated near Luxor, Egypt. The name “Karnak” is derived from the Arabic word “Khurnaq,” which translates to “walled settlement.”

The majority of the complex’s remaining edifices can be traced back to the New Kingdom era, commencing with the reign of Senusret I (ruled from 1971–1926 BCE), approximately from 2000-1700 BCE.

During the 18th dynasty of ancient Egypt, the surrounding area of Karnak was known as “Ipet-isut,” meaning “The Most Selected of Places.” It served as the principal temple for the Theban Triad, presided over by the god Amun.

In 1979, the Karnak Temple Complex, along with the rest of the magnificent city of Thebes, was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

The mortuary temple of Hatshepsut, also referred to as the Temple of the Holy of Holies (Egyptian: sr-srw), was constructed during the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt under the rule of Pharaoh Hatshepsut. Situated on the opposite side of the Nile from Luxor, this site is a must-visit for anyone with an interest in ancient architecture.

Carved into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, the temple features three expansive terraces that dominate the landscape below. Her pyramidal mausoleum, El Qurn, can be found on the same mountain range as her tomb, KV20. At the edge of the desert, approximately one kilometer to the east, you’ll discover the valley temple, linked to the main complex by a causeway. The entire structure faces the most famous addition made by Hatshepsut to the Temple of Karnak – the immense Eighth Pylon, where the procession of the Glorious Festival of the Valley used to commence.

The Valley of the Kings is known by both Coptic and Arabic names, with “dme” (also written “dme” in Arabic) and “Wd al-Mulk,” respectively. The Valley of the Kings (Arabic: Wd Abwb al-Mulk) is a historical site in Egypt where rock-cut tombs were excavated for over 500 years, dating from the 16th to the 11th centuries BC. These tombs were intended for pharaohs and prominent nobles of the New Kingdom and spanned the Eighteenth to the Twentieth Dynasties of Ancient Egypt.

Savor a meal at a restaurant with a Nile view, where we utilize a Felouka to ferry across the river. Additionally, we offer an optional shopping stop and include a boat trip upon each guest’s request.

The colossal stone sculptures of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, famously called the Colossi of Memnon (Arabic: el-Colossat or es-Salamat), are positioned in front of the once-imposing Mortuary Temple of Amenhotep III, which was the grandest temple in the Theban Necropolis. These landmarks were known to the Greeks, Romans, early modern explorers, and Egyptologists because they had been standing since 1350 BC.

Between 20 and 250 AD, a total of 107 Greek and Latin inscriptions were etched onto the statues. Many of these inscriptions made reference to the Greek mythological king Memnon, who was incorrectly believed to be depicted by the statue during that period.

The connection between the Greek name for the entire Theban Necropolis, the Memnonium, and the identification of the northern colossus as “Memnon” is a subject of intense debate among scholars.
