Today, you’ll visit the most famous graveyard in the world, with stops at a few more of Luxor’s landmarks. You’ll drive to the Valley of the Kings, where you’ll have some time to enter some of the 60-odd subterranean tombs of well-known ancient pharaohs like Ramesses II, Thutmose I, and the boy king, Tutankhamun. As you descend into the tunnels, you’ll marvel at the perfectly-carved hieroglyphics and friezes that have survived the test of time. You can pay a bit extra to get into King Tut’s tomb, where his mummy now lays in the exact spot it was for thousands of years. Later, you’ll go on to the Valley of the Queens, where you’ll find the tombs of queens, princes and princesses, and noblemen. The magnificent Temple of Queen Hatshepsut is up next. This huge, three-tiered temple is carved right into the cliffside, and features masculine-looking statues of the queen, who actually portrayed herself as a king.
Swimming with dolphins in their natural environment is a truly unforgettable experience. With Dolphin Swims, you will interact with these playful and curious mammals in a safe, responsible and ecologically sensitive way. To participate you need to be of an average level of fitness to swim and to get on and off boats into the water. Life jackets are provided.
This trip teams snorkeling and swimming with the chance to spot pods of playful dolphins. Your boat will take you out to a coral reef, where you can pull on a mask and snorkel and join the colorful Red Sea residents underwater. After an hour or so it’s time for lunch on board, as we sail to our next snorkeling stop. Keep your eyes peeled for dolphins as we glide along – they’ll often jump and flip over the waves. Another hour of snorkeling is up next, before we cruise back towards the marina at Marsa Alam.
