During the reign of Ptolemy III, 323 BC-282 BC, the temple was dedicated to the Egyptian gods of death and resurrection, Isis and Osiris.

Located in Luxor, about 20 kilometers from the main temple complex at Karnak, and across the Nile River from Thebes (Luxor), the Valley of the Kings is one of Egypt’s most famous tourist destinations. UNESCO added it to its World Heritage List in 1979.
There are tombs here from the New Kingdom (1550-1069 BC) and Eighteenth Dynasty (1190-1065 BC) periods. These mud brick tombs are decorated with hieroglyphs that tell us who the kings were, what they did, and how they died. They even come with their own mortuary temples, decorated with murals depicting gods, queens, and other royals.
Temple of Queen Hatshepsut:
A temple dedicated to the ancient Egyptian queen and first female pharaoh, Hatshepsut, is located in Luxor City, Egypt, just south of the Karnak Temple complex and east of the Luxor Museum.
It took about 20 years to complete this temple, which began construction in 1468 BC.
At that time, Amen-Re and Khnum were considered the primary deities in Ancient Egypt, and queen Hatshepsut temple was dedicated to them.
Colossi of Memnon:
The Colossi of Memnon are located in the Western Valley of the Kings, near the Temple of Hatshepsut. They are believed to have been built in about 1350 BC, during the reign of Amenhotep III. However, they may originally have served as part of a larger temple complex dedicated to the sun god Ra.

We spent 9 days in Egypt on a tour organised by EgyptaTours visiting Cairo, Aswan, Luxor and Alexandria. We had a fantastic experience.
Everything went very smoothly - from meeting us at Cairo Airport, assisting with luggage, hotel check-ins, having qualified knowledgeable Egyptologists as our tour guides, organising meals. Even when our flight was cancelled and rescheduled for the next day, they were able to adjust and accommodate for our circumstance.
Big thanks to Mr Selim for being our tour operator at EgyptaTours He provided excellent service organising our tour - professional, friendly, responsive and communicative. He did a fantastic job.
All our tour guides were excellent (Mona in Cairo, Abd ElMegeed in Aswan, Abdelrhman in Luxor) were all very knowledgeable, informative and friendly. The drivers were also terrific, being able to safely navigate through the at times crazy traffic in Egypt.

(If I could, I would give 6 ⭐️ )
Our experience with Egypta Tours was truly exceptional from start to finish. The organization, consistency, and overall planning were at a top level.
What stood out the most for us was how the entire program was fully customized to match our personal needs and preferences. We started with a basic idea and, with their help, shaped it exactly the way we wanted. This made our trip truly unique and perfectly tailored to us.
The guides and drivers were outstanding professionals, making us feel like VIPs throughout the entire journey. A special mention goes to Mona, the guide we had for most of the trip. She was amazing — friendly, knowledgeable, detailed, and genuinely caring. She made us feel like friends and played a key role in making our experience unforgettable.
Transportation in Egypt, which can often be challenging, was handled with excellent organization and ease. Everything was well-coordinated, punctual, and smooth, giving us a great sense of comfort and security.
We would highly recommend Egypta Tours to anyone looking to experience Egypt without stress, with high-quality service and a truly personalized touch.

Tour Review
I planned a trip for my husband and I to come to Egypt for 2 weeks andI wanted to see as much as possible while we were here. I found EgyptaTours and was very pleased with the itinerary options they offered. My agent was super helpful in the planning process and the accommodations once we arrived to Egypt were OUTSTANDING. Our guides were fabulous, communicative, highly knowledgeable, and super friendly. They even allowed us to alter our itenerary in Egypt to allow us time to see some new things that we didn't know about while planning the trip! We had a wonderful experience and i recommend this company to anyone who wants to see Egypt and learn about the amazing history and culture.
