Luxor

Luxor has been a favourite tourist destination ever since Nile steamers began calling at the former site of Thebes in the nineteenth century. The city is sometimes called ‘the world’s greatest open air museum’ because the concentration of monuments in the area is simply overwhelming. The ruins of the massive temple complex of Karnak and the elegant temple complex of Luxor lie within the boundaries of the modern city, whilst across the Nile, on the West Bank, the Theban Necropolis boasts amazing tombs and mortuary temples.

Luxor is one of Egypt’s greatest treasures, with its wealth of monumental edifices testifying to the greatest of the country’s past.
