Egypt
Day 1: Hurghada to Luxor - Karnak and Luxor Temples Your adventure begins with a pickup from your Hurghada hotel, setting off in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle for a 4-hour drive to Luxor. Upon arrival, check into your hotel to refresh before lunch at a quality local restaurant. The exploration starts on the East Bank of Luxor with the Karnak Temples Complex, the largest religious building ever constructed. The main temple is dedicated to Amun Ra, with origins dating back to the Middle Kingdom, though some elements are as old as the 3rd dynasty. Next, visit the Luxor Temple, a monument of Egypt's 12th dynasty, enhanced by Ramses II. This temple served as the center of worship for Amun Re and stood at the heart of ancient Thebes. After a day filled with ancient wonders, return to your hotel in Luxor for some well-deserved rest and an overnight stay.
Day 2: Valley of the Kings, Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, Colossi of Memnon - Return to Hurghada After breakfast and hotel checkout, your guide will lead you to the West Bank of Luxor. The journey through Thebes begins with the Valley of the Kings, the burial grounds of Egypt's New Kingdom rulers, a place steeped in mystery and laden with treasures. Continue to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut at Deir El Bahari, an exemplar of ancient Egyptian architecture, carved directly into the mountain's face. Conclude your tour at the Colossi of Memnon, two monumental statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III. After a lunch at a local restaurant, you'll be driven back to your hotel in Hurghada, bringing with you memories of Luxor's timeless splendor. This tour offers a comprehensive glimpse into the grandeur of Egypt's pharaonic past, all within a comfortable and well-organized itinerary.

My family and I loved this experience.
My family and I loved this experience. My daughter and I love to bake, but my husband and son rarely step into the kitchen to cook, so watching them enjoy themselves was very special. Emma was a kind and patient teacher. She made the experience fun with her humor and stories. We shared the class with a mother and daughter who were fun as well. Not only did we learn how to make a baguette, but we also had a great time doing it as a family. This experience was a great value as well.
