Tour at Luxor Habu Temple Valley of the Nobles and Artisans
Welcome back to the magical West Bank of Luxor! If you’ve already visited the Valley of the Kings and Hatshepsut’s temple, it’s time to go deeper—literally and historically. On this Second West Bank Tour, I’ll personally guide you through the less-visited but incredibly rich sites of Medinat Habu, the Valley of the Nobles, and the Valley of the Artisans (Deir el-Medina). These places are where history feels personal—you’ll step into vibrant tombs, walk through the village of the ancient craftsmen, and marvel at one of the best-preserved temples in all of Egypt. This is not just sightseeing—this is storytelling through color, stone, and silence.
Highlights:
Discover the hidden beauty of the West Bank away from the crowds. Visit one of Egypt’s best-preserved temples: Medinat Habu. See vivid wall paintings in the tombs of nobles and artisans. Learn about the daily life of ancient workers at Deir el-Medina. Guided by a professional Egyptologist every step of the way.
