Transfer to the cruise ship (arrival strictly in the first half of the day). Check-in on the M/S HAPI cruise liner and the beginning of the journey along the Nile.

Lunch at the cruise liner's restaurant.

Visit to the east bank of the Nile River, including the Karnak and Luxor Temples.

Excursion participants will see the site of the ancient capital of Egyptian civilization, Thebes. The Nile divides the city into two parts: the western "city of the dead" and the eastern "city of the living." In the "city of the living," two grand temples are located, which are Karnak and Luxor. Together, these temples form a large complex, which includes many magnificent temples built by different pharaohs, featuring royal cult estates, giant statues, and gilded obelisks shining against the azure sky.

Day 2: Excursion to the Valley of the Kings and Queens, Hatshepsut Temple, and Colossi of Memnon

Breakfast at the cruise liner's restaurant.

Visit to the west bank of the Nile River, where the Valley of the Kings and Queens, the temple of Queen Hatshepsut in El-Deir-el-Bahari, and the Colossi of Memnon are located.

The Valley of the Kings and Queens is the main highlight in the "city of the dead." Here there are the mortuary temples and tombs of Luxor. Tourists will see the enormous statues, which are the Colossi of Memnon. An important point on the itinerary is the visit to the temple of Queen Hatshepsut. It is hard to imagine how such a structure with three terraces, an open courtyard, rooms with pilasters, sanctuaries, and much more was carved into the rock. It’s a truly incredible masterpiece of ancient architecture.
