Although other structures are located within the area, the location is today associated almost exclusively with the Mortuary Temple of Ramesses III The temple, some 150m long, is of orthodox design, and resembles closely the mortuary temple of Ramesses II (the Ramesseum).

Also you will be able to visit some other temples inside Habu Temple Such as Temple of Amun dating to the 18th Dynasty, built by Queen Hatshepsut and Thutmose III. It has undergone many alterations and modifications over the years, partially in the 20th, 25th, 26th, 29th and 30th Dynasties and the Greco-Roman period.

End your day Tour with a visit to Valley of the Queens it's is a place where wives of Pharaohs were buried in ancient times.

The tombs of these individuals were maintained by mortuary priests who performed daily rituals and provided offerings and prayers for the deceased nobility. The valley is located near the better known Valley of the Kings, on the west bank of the Nile across from Thebes (modernLuxor). This barren area in the western hills was chosen due to its relative isolation and proximity to the capital.

We really lucked out getting this tour guide, he was so passionate about Egyptian history. It was such a good experience getting the private tour with him, it is completely worth it. You can go at your own pace and ask questions freely without feeling like you are being rushed, he was so patient and the way he answered our questions was very enlightening. This guide is very educated and especially gifted in tying in the symbolism of the various Egyptian gods / goddesses which provided me to have a deeper perspective and impression of what Egypt was like. He was a great storyteller, and you felt transported into the past of Egyptian times. I highly recommend this guy! Ahd WhatsApp number +20 103 228 0096 Operations department

The best tour guide I had in all Egypt! The pickup was right on time, the guide had a really good English and understood a lot about the places we visited. She explained really well all the details that we could observe in the temples. Concerning the site, the valley of the artisans was a total surprise! Worth a visit.

Our guide, Sam, was excellent! He could read the hieroglyphs like I read English, and his knowledge of the locations was superb. We were given plenty of time to explore each tomb/temple and were shown some absolute treats - my favourite was the tomb of the artisan who decorated his own resting place beautifully! Sam ensured we missed the crowds and still got us back to the hotel in time for lunch! Thank you!
