Know before you go

Luxor, the "World's Greatest Open Air Museum," contains a major number of the world's monuments that still remain today.
This city is located 680 km south of Cairo on the East Bank of the River Nile. The ancient name of Luxor is Ta-Pe/Ta-Opet, which means the Holy Land. This name became Thebes during the Greek reign in Egypt, then the Arabs came and called it Luxor, which is an Arabic word meaning palaces in English.
The importance of Luxor comes from its position, as it was the capital of Ancient Egypt for years. It is the main cult center of the main god of Egypt, and it is home to the largest temple in Egypt, Karnak Temple.
Our visit will cover the most important sightseeing in Luxor.
