Tour Guide for Luxor East Bank, West Bank, and the Colossi of Memnon

My trip to Luxor, Egypt, was truly beyond imagination, thanks to the Thai Airways ticket event! I booked the Luxor East Bank + West Bank tour through Trip.com and spent an entire day exploring historical sites. Among them, the most impressive was the 'Colossi of Memnon.' We arrived at the Colossi of Memnon towards the end of the West Bank tour, just around sunset. The statues bathed in the evening glow were absolutely breathtaking. The tour started early in the morning, beginning with the East Bank sites like Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple. After lunch, we moved on to the West Bank to visit the Valley of the Kings and the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, finally ending at the Colossi of Memnon. Although walking all day left my legs sore, seeing the Colossi of Memnon made all the fatigue disappear. The Colossi of Memnon are not just giant stones. The fact that they have stood there for thousands of years is awe-inspiring. At sunset, the statues, bathed in a reddish glow, felt like living gods. The guide explained that the sounds emanating from the statues were once called 'Memnon's Cry,' believed by ancient people to be the voice of the gods. Hearing this made the statues feel even more mystical. The Trip.com tour was well-organized, with comfortable transportation and a local guide fluent in English, making the explanations easy to understand. The guide also pointed out great photo spots, allowing me to capture many beautiful pictures. Despite being a group tour, the schedule was neither rushed nor boring. Although the itinerary was tight, covering both the East and West Banks of Luxor in one day, it was a perfect day to truly experience Egypt's rich history and ancient culture in a short time.
