Ancient Egypt & the Nile Valley

Luxor

Luxor

A city in southern Egypt offers a rich history with ancient monuments, including temples and pharaohs' tombs, attracting tourists worldwide.

The city of Luxor is located amidst 7,000 years of civilisation. It is spread along the banks of the Nile, in the shadow of the Theban Mountains where the Valley of the Kings and Queens lie. The city is home to the temple complexes at Karnak and Luxor and is also the main departure point for Nile cruises that depart for Awwan. We highly recommend spending time here to absorb the destination in the company of one of our expert local guides.
