Luxor is a four-hour drive from Hurghada each way — this trip trades that road for a one-hour flight, so you spend the day on the monuments instead of the motorway. You're picked up early, fly Hurghada to Luxor, and meet your private Egyptologist at the airport. From there it's the classic Luxor day, unhurried: the vast columns of Karnak, a typical Egyptian lunch on the West Bank, the painted royal tombs of the Valley of the Kings, the terraces of Hatshepsut's temple and the towering Colossi of Memnon. We add a complimentary hour on the Nile by boat before the evening flight home. Private, guided, and no shopping stops.
