1. Your German-speaking guide will accompany you throughout the excursion. When we arrive in Luxor, our first program point is a visit to the Karnak temple complex: it is the largest temple complex in Egypt on the eastern bank of the Nile, about 2.5 kilometers from Luxor. The oldest building remains of the temple still visible today come from the 12 dynasty under Sesostris. The purpose of the temple complex was for the priesthood to conduct daily temple service there. The large hall of columns is one of the most important remains of the temple. You will also visit the Oblisek and Heilge lakes and much more in the Karnak Temple.

About Hurghada

Hurghada is een badplaats aan de Rode Zee op het Egyptische vasteland, geliefd om koraalriffen, warm water, woestijnuitstapjes en ontspannen stranddagen.

De stad strekt zich uit langs de kust, van de oudere wijk El Dahar met zijn soek en vismarkt tot de jachthaven bij Sakkala en de resortstrook in het zuiden. Voor de kust wemelen de riffen en eilanden van de Rode Zee van kleurrijke vissen en koraaltuinen, en soms zie je dolfijnen, waardoor snorkelen en duiken de belangrijkste trekpleisters zijn.
