Astounding, Hot, Beautiful Egypt . . .
still a World Class Holiday Destination
Luxor, Egypt - a beautiful, mysterious, historical holiday destination!
Ancient Thebes (Luxor) is a UNESCO World Heritage Site - and with Nile River, bazaars, the bustle of an Arabic city - sunshine and heat all day - every day - and stunning sunrise and sunset colours thrown in - you couldn't wish for more fantastic variety on your holiday!
If you stay on The West Bank you get a grandstand view of the city - with only the Nile River between you and the dawn sun rising over Luxor Temple. Feluccas sailing past, catching the tiniest of breezes and on the dirt road white-clad Egyptians, camels and interesting 'traffic' - like donkey carts heaped with sugar cane - pass by. At dusk you see the sun setting behind the Valley of the Kings - hiding place of the tombs of the Pharaohs - Tutenkhamun among them.
Let your kids catch the thrill of adventure and archaeological exploration, enjoy the animals, extract gruesome delight from Luxor's mummification museum. Then cool your kids off with and adventure onto the Nile - or swim in one of the local swimming pools - not the Nile River!
