Luxor

Luxor is not a place I would recommend staying for too long - my opinion and others of the group. The sleeze factor is more present here!

In saying that, the sights of Luxor are not to be missed and next time I would go and see the sights and return to the boat of an evening, instead of a hotel in the city itself.

Luxor Temple would have to be one of my favourite sites and we saw it at dusk, so the light on the columns was just beautiful. Next Karnak Temple - just a bigger version of Luxor Temple. Next Necropolis of Thebes, the Coliseum of Memnon, Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, Valley of the Kings.

Valley of the Kings - we visited 3 tombs, all of which were equally as interesting as the next.
