Exciting place. It's very atmospheric and amazing. It is recommended to visit 100 % . If you're lucky with a guide, it's awesome. There are always a lot of people, but you can always catch the moment and take great photos
Such a pleasure , we expected more . The ROAD crossed out all the emotions of admiration, we got a weak guide, he told us a lot, of course you can't remember everything, I didn't like it when they asked him a question, not having heard the story before, he replied - HELLO, good morning, I just spoke. awful. We talked to people in the cave , went to the tombs with them , told them , go and look at us and that 's it . sadness. check-out at 4-20 arrived at the hotel at 19-00. By the end of the trip, the people on the bus coughed , because the air conditioner was turned on at a minimum, the driver was hot, we were cold. Luxor itself stands in a small mansion in the city , we walked along it for 20 minutes . There are photographers everywhere, for $ 1, but if they see that you have more of them, they will pull everything out.. After Luxor, there was a banana island with a crocodile sleeping in a cage, they sold delicious tea, fresh mango juice, guava, we tried everything, this is what season we will run into, we were from October 15 to October 21, 24. Then a trip along the Nile by boat , lunch at a restaurant , at some hotel. so - so vegan . Next, the workshop, in short, you want gifts, they will sell and tell you on the way.
Quite an interesting and colorful place to visit.
The architecture and engineering solutions that were implemented long before the advent of rotary hammers, manipulators and various devices that facilitate construction today are impressive.
I recommend.
I advise all tourists to visit this temple. The grandeur and splendor of an ancient civilization. Complete delight. In the evening, when the backlight is turned on, it becomes even more beautiful. Purchase a ticket to the temple only with a Visa or Mastercard card. The world is not accepted
We went on an excursion to Luxor from anex tour in September, which cost us $ 100 per person (too much) but it was worth it! It included the valley of the Sphinxes, the Karnak temple, an excursion to the city of the living, the valley of the dead, visited the Colossal Moon, rafting on the Nile River by boat+ lunch buffet at a restaurant on the banks of the Nile, tombs of kings and queens, the temple of Queen Hatsepshut, an alabaster factory. The tour exceeded all expectations, if not for the heat that reached all +50 there.The guide tried to guide us in the shadows. The sun burned mercilessly. We visited the scarab beetle- we made a wish, we are waiting for it to come true. I advise you to visit
Luxor is the former capital of Egypt, Thebes. It seems that the city consists of only historical attractions, the valley of the kings, the city of the dead, tombs, columns.Everything is colorful and very interesting.
But in fact it is a modern port city where cruise ships stop.
Complete delight
Payment of tickets by card only
I recommend you to visit with a guide.
The monumentality and preservation of this place is very impressive.
There are always a lot of people, but it doesn't feel much.
A fascinating landscape. You'll find yourself in a very ancient era. With a good guide, the impression increases. It is a pity that so much beauty has already been allowed and only a small part has reached us. But how can you imagine how much work it took to build all this? It is necessary to visit this part of the school history.
It is worth visiting, this temple is much smaller than Karnak, there are fewer people, now it is not included in organized excursions, which is very bad, only on an individual request, we used to start with it, it is beautiful, solemn, the alley of sphinxes here is longer and perfectly preserved.
A very beautiful place, of course. We went on an excursion from the Moontours agency in a mini group. Everything is very fast, they showed a lot of locations. I definitely recommend visiting to see firsthand the power of the place
It took about 4 hours to get from Hurghada to Luxor. It is a very beautiful and majestic temple, one of the largest. It is best to take the program with a guide to learn the history, and not just take pictures with buildings. If you are near Luxor, you should definitely consider visiting this place.
I specially chose Hurghada for my vacation to visit Luxor. Take a tour with the full program.
Then you will see the sights on both sides of the Nile. Departure from the hotel at 4:30, arrival back at 22:00. I definitely recommend you to visit
A favorite place with family, a real ancient Egyptian history. Usually we go to Hurghada for 2 weeks, choose a non-expensive city hotel, rent a car, in November 2023 the price was $ 35 per day unlimited km, we leave early in the morning and in 3-4 hours we are already in the Luxor. The road is good and safe, I highly recommend it. It's cheaper than taking a tour with a bus for $ 45-75 per person, there are 4 of us and it's not profitable, but I really want to see
This is an incredible place! I recommend you to visit, but in winter. It will probably be unbearably hot there in the summer. We went in December. The only strain is that the locals all want to help you take a picture for money... it's like some kind of hunt. And so it is very large-scale and an incredible atmosphere
An unusual place on the banks of the Nile. It is worth a visit, despite the price of the trip. There are many different temples in Luxor with different frescoes and columns. I also recommend a ride along the Nile itself.
Compared to the Karnak temple, it loses in scale, power, size, but it has a very interesting story, an Egyptian temple, on which there is a mosque and on some walls of the temple frescoes of hieroglyphs are ordered and painted the faces of saints from Christianity.
I advise you to visit! Be sure to have a guide!)
It's a beautiful place, just like in the textbooks on ancient Egypt. The frescoes are amazing. A real wonder of the world and a demonstration of the power of ancient Egypt and the pharaohs
A historical place. In my opinion, it is worth a visit. To feel this antiquity with your skin, to touch it, to walk between the columns. An unforgettable experience, impressive. I've always wondered how all this has survived to our time?!
The place is atmospheric, it is worth visiting 1 time in a lifetime!
The guides are Russian-speaking. The best time to visit is winter!
It is very hot in summer.
It is located in the city and you can walk around it in the evening without entering the territory (for the economical).
A monument to a bygone civilization...
who built it like that?!
The place is simply cosmic. and if you get to nesnzon , then there is even more space. And if you also take a good guide or study history yourself, then space will be everywhere! If you are in Egypt , then you must go there
There is no special point in writing.
It's an atmosphere of unreality, it's when you don't feel the ground under your feet, but everything becomes a fairy tale, magic!
You have to be there!

But this is Luxor, there's nothing to talk about, it's a lifelong dream to visit it, it's very cool, but be prepared for the fact that there are a lot of people there.
Very hot place. In the shade +42. Feels like +80.
There are three tombs. From the first to the third degree of preservation of drawings on the walls and passages in the tomb is improving. Therefore, if you don't want to see all the tombs, but only one, then go to the third one. There are the brightest drawings.
living history, take water with you and what to cover yourself from the scorching sun, it is very interesting and beautiful, as if in a scientific TV show
Now there is a period of his recovery. But you can watch most of it. A very beautiful alley with bull-headed sphinxes. It looks great at night from the embankment.

A wonderful place, mysterious and mysterious! The only thing was that I didn't have enough time with the guide to see everything! I would like to come on my own and devote more time to the temple. The tour was led by a wonderful guide Inna, the only woman among the guides in Luxor!
If you are not an archaeologist or a historian, then there is nothing to see. You can take a picture from the road. And so everything is visible. As an alternative, the Karnak temple, and then we went around everything in 2 hours with gatherings and chatter.
I have long been convinced that the pyramids occupy 10 percent of the rest of Egypt's attractions. And this temple is an example of that: a huge complex that even has its own pool for sacred crocodiles. The alley of bull-headed sphinxes opens the way to the temple. Next is the temple itself with many statues of gods and pharaohs. Interesting frescoes: some are even the original color.
The same impressive statue of the scarab and part of the destroyed Stella.
