No site on earth concentrates 4,000 years of temples and tombs like Luxor. On the East Bank rise Karnak — the largest temple complex ever built — and Luxor Temple glowing at night; across the Nile lie the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut’s mortuary temple and the Colossi of Memnon.

Add a sunrise hot-air balloon over the Theban hills, a felucca at sunset and our Egyptologist guides, and Luxor becomes the highlight of every King Edward itinerary — whether on a Nile cruise or an overland tour.

We run Luxor as day tours from Hurghada, as the heart of every Nile cruise (3, 4 or 7 nights), and as multi-day overland stays. Hotels from boutique to 5* (Old Winter Palace, Steigenberger, Hilton), private A/C transport and licensed guides throughout.

Don’t miss: Karnak’s Hypostyle Hall at opening time, the Valley of the Kings (including Tutankhamun), Hatshepsut Temple at Deir el-Bahari, Luxor Temple by night, and sunrise balloons over the west bank.

Combine Luxor with Cairo’s pyramids, Aswan and Abu Simbel, or the Red Sea — tell us your dates and our tour managers reply with the best offer within 24 hours.

October–April brings perfect sightseeing weather (25°C days). Summer visits start at dawn to beat the heat — our guides adjust every itinerary.
