Your tour begins at the legendary Giza Pyramids Complex, home to the world-famous pyramids constructed during Egypt’s Fourth Dynasty. You will explore the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the largest and oldest of the three pyramids, built between 2580 and 2560 BC. Originally standing at approximately 146 meters high, this extraordinary monument remains a timeless symbol of ancient Egypt’s architectural mastery and engineering precision.
Next, you will encounter the majestic Great Sphinx of Giza, carved from limestone with the body of a lion and the face believed to represent Pharaoh Khafre. Your Egyptologist will explain the symbolism and mysteries surrounding the Sphinx, including the famous Dream Stele of Thutmose IV, which tells the legend of the young prince and his divine destiny.
You will then visit the Valley Temple, an essential element of the Giza funerary complex. This remarkably preserved structure was used for purification and mummification rituals and offers valuable insight into ancient Egyptian burial practices and religious beliefs.
The day continues with a visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), one of the most important museums in the world.

After enjoying breakfast at your hotel, you will continue your 6-day Easter holiday in Egypt with Traviaz on a full-day guided sightseeing tour in Luxor—one of the world’s greatest open-air museums. Accompanied by your professional Traviaz Egyptologist guide, you will explore the most iconic monuments on both the West and East Banks of the Nile.
Your day begins with a visit to the Valley of the Kings, the royal burial ground of the New Kingdom (circa 1550–1070 BC). Here, you will enter a selection of richly decorated tombs belonging to legendary pharaohs such as Tutankhamun, Seti I, and Ramses II. Your guide will explain the ancient burial rituals, wall inscriptions, and religious beliefs surrounding the afterlife that shaped this golden era of Egyptian history.
Next, you will visit the magnificent Temple of Queen Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari. Built in the 15th century BC, this elegant terraced temple honors one of Egypt’s most powerful female rulers. Dedicated primarily to the god Amun, the temple’s reliefs and architecture celebrate both divine worship and the enduring legacy of Hatshepsut as a successful and authoritative pharaoh.
Your tour continues with a Photo stop at the Colossi of Memnon—two colossal seated statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III. These monumental figures once guarded the entrance to his vast mortuary complex and have stood on the Theban plain for more than three thousand years, remaining one of Luxor’s most iconic landmarks.
You will then explore the awe-inspiring Karnak Temple Complex, the largest religious structure ever built. Constructed over many centuries from approximately 1971 BC to the Greco-Roman period, Karnak was dedicated to the Theban Triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu. The complex features massive pylons, sacred lakes, and the famous Great Hypostyle Hall with its forest of towering columns—an architectural masterpiece unlike any other.
After completing your sightseeing tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Luxor in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. The evening is free for relaxation, allowing you to unwind and reflect on a remarkable day before continuing your journey through ancient Egypt.
Meals: Breakfast & Lunch
Overnight: Hotel in Luxor
After enjoying breakfast at your hotel in Luxor, you will check out and transfer to the train station for your journey south to Aswan. Upon arrival, you will be warmly welcomed by your professional Traviaz Egyptologist guide, who will accompany you throughout the day as you explore Aswan’s most significant historical and cultural landmarks.
Your tour begins with a visit to the Aswan High Dam, one of the most important modern engineering achievements in Egypt. Completed in the 20th century, the dam plays a vital role in controlling the annual flooding of the Nile, generating hydroelectric power, and creating Lake Nasser—one of the largest artificial lakes in the world. Your guide will explain the High Dam’s historical impact on Egypt’s economy, agriculture, and development.
Next, you will visit the Unfinished Obelisk, located in the ancient granite quarries of Aswan. Commissioned during the reign of Queen Hatshepsut, this massive monument was intended to be the largest obelisk ever erected. Cracks discovered during its carving caused the project to be abandoned, leaving behind an extraordinary insight into ancient Egyptian stone-cutting techniques and engineering methods.
Your final stop is the enchanting Philae Temple, dedicated primarily to the goddess Isis. Dating back to the Greco-Roman period (380–362 BC), the temple is deeply connected to the myth of Osiris, his death, and resurrection through the devotion of Isis. Relocated to Agilkia Island to protect it from rising Nile waters, Philae remains one of the most atmospheric and visually stunning temples in Egypt.
After completing your sightseeing tour, Traviaz will transfer you to your hotel in Aswan for check-in. The remainder of the evening is at leisure, allowing you to relax and enjoy the peaceful ambiance of this beautiful Nubian city before continuing your journey the following day.

After breakfast, you will check out from your hotel in Aswan and depart in a private, air-conditioned vehicle accompanied by your highly qualified Traviaz Egyptologist guide for a journey to Abu Simbel.
Upon arrival, you will explore the magnificent Abu Simbel Temples, one of Egypt’s most impressive archaeological achievements. Carved into solid rock during the 13th century BC by Pharaoh Ramses II, these monumental temples reflect the power, ambition, and artistic brilliance of ancient Egypt.
Inside the Great Temple, you will admire enormous reliefs and inscriptions depicting Ramses II’s military victories, including scenes from the famous Battle of Kadesh—an event that later led to the first recorded peace treaty in world history. Your Egyptologist guide will bring these historical moments to life through detailed explanations and storytelling.
You will also learn about the remarkable Abu Simbel Sun Festival, which occurs annually on February 22 and October 22. On these dates, sunlight penetrates the inner sanctuary to illuminate the faces of the statues of Ramses II and the gods Amun, Ra-Horakhty, and Ptah—an extraordinary demonstration of ancient Egyptian astronomical knowledge and precision.
After completing your visit, you will return to Aswan for lunch. Later in the day, you will be transferred to the airport for your domestic flight back to Cairo.
