Itinerary

As you walk beneath the towering stone gateways and into the grand hypostyle hall, you’ll be struck by the vivid blue ceilings still adorned with original astronomical carvings. Your private Egyptologist guide will reveal the temple’s hidden meanings — from the famous Zodiac relief to secret crypts and rooftop chapels.

About Luxor

Luxor stands on the site of ancient Thebes, with vast temples on the Nile's east bank and the royal tombs of the Valley of the Kings across the river.

On the east bank, the Karnak temple complex spreads across acres of pylons, obelisks and the forest of columns in its Great Hypostyle Hall. An avenue of sphinxes links it to Luxor Temple in the town centre, which is especially atmospheric when lit up in the evening. The Luxor Museum and the Mummification Museum sit along the riverside corniche.

Top-ranked sights in Luxor: Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut (at Deir el-Bahari), Colossi of Memnon.
