One of the most dazzling historical cities that exists today, Luxor is the crown jewel in the ancient history of Egypt, housing the second largest temple complex in the world. Both the East and West banks of the Nile around Luxor form what is known at the largest outdoor museum you will ever discover. From Karnak Temple, built over a period of 2000 years by 30 different Pharaohs, to the Valley of the Kings where you will find exquisite remnants of the tombs of the most famous ancient Egyptian Pharaohs, Luxor is not to be missed.

If you have even five days, it is worth making the effort to visit, as the extensive examples of the most stunning artwork, craftsmanship and devotion are on display in Luxor. You will immediately understand why the ancient Egyptian civilization was so revered, so loved, so feared and in the end so exposed to ruin. There are endless stories to recount based on the writings on the wall…(have you ever wondered where that expression came from?) You will be fascinated how well organized their ancient civilization was and how all of their activities and beliefs were consistently woven into their daily lives.

There are numerous activities, temples, tombs and museums to discover and Luxor becomes the main reason why so many people return to Egypt; there is simply too much to experience in one visit.
