Luxor

Places in Luxor:
Nile Cruises

Luxor is one of Egypt's most famous and oldest resorts, located on the east bank of the River Nile. It is a popular choice for holidaymakers who want to soak up the local history and culture mixed with an mysterious atmosphere. With many exceptional sights to be explored, a tour of the valley of the Kings and the Karnak temple including the breath taking Sound and Light show which is shown in the evenings is an absolute must when you come to Luxor. These are ancient religious sites and also where King Tutankhamun, Pharaohs and many noblemen were laid to rest. View the amazing hieroglyphics in the tombs, so much to see you'll never fit it all in.

What better way to explore the River Nile than to take a felucca (traditional sailing boat) and drift along capturing the impressive sights of Luxor whilst relaxing in the sun or floating above the city in one of the many hot air balloons looking down over all the statues and tombs Luxor houses. Don't forget to take your camera, there are sights such as awe-inspiring monuments and fantastic views you'll want to remember forever.

After visiting the temples and tombs Luxor has even more to offer. Try your hand at bartering for one of the many antiques and handicrafts available in the souks or visit one of the many museums - the Mumification museum is a very interesting place, im sure you can imagine, also cast your eyes over the precious artefacts from Tutankhamun's tomb. At the end of the day relax in one of Luxor's popular hotels overlooking the Nile whilst taking the day in. Luxor promises a unique adventure nowhere else can even compare.
