About This Activity

Experience the ultimate comfort and convenience on a private day tour from Cairo to Luxor aboard a sleeper train. This exclusive journey allows you to uncover the ancient wonders of Luxor while enjoying the ease of travel.

Your adventure begins with a private pickup from your hotel in Cairo at 5:00 PM, where you'll be escorted to the train station in time for your 7:00 PM departure. As the sleeper train leaves Cairo, settle into your compartment and enjoy the scenic views of the Egyptian countryside.

Upon reaching Luxor, a private guide will be waiting to take you on a tour of the city's most iconic landmarks. Begin with a visit to the Temple of Karnak, the largest religious site dedicated to the worship of the gods Amun, Mut, and Khonsu. Continue your exploration at the Valley of the Kings, where the tombs of ancient Pharaohs lie hidden, and admire the magnificent Colossi of Memnon, towering statues that have withstood the test of time.

Enjoy a delicious lunch on your journey, before heading to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut. This remarkable structure honors Egypt’s only female pharaoh and stands as a testament to her reign. Conclude your exploration with a visit to the Colossi of Memnon, the awe-inspiring remains of the Temple of Amenophis III.

After a full day of discovering Luxor’s treasures, return to the Luxor train station for your sleeper train journey back to Cairo. Relax and reflect on the day's adventures as you unwind on your journey home.
