About the city

Luxor, often referred to as the world's greatest open-air museum, is an enchanting city in southern Egypt. The city is home to two of the most significant temples, Karnak and Luxor Temple, which testify to the grandeur of the ancient Egyptian civilization. Its vibrant atmosphere blends traditional culture with the allure of historical mystery. Luxor's economy thrives on tourism, agriculture, and trade, due to its strategic position along the Nile River. The city is also known for its bustling markets where tourists can find unique crafts and local goods. Walking through Luxor is akin to traveling back in time, with its remarkable preservation of antiquities drawing history enthusiasts worldwide.

Top attractions

The Karnak Temple Complex, a vast array of temples and chapels, is a must-see in Luxor. It is one of the largest religious buildings ever constructed, making it a marvel for any visitor. Just a short distance away lies the Luxor Temple, gracefully situated on the Nile's eastern bank, known for its breathtaking avenue of Sphinxes. Another popular attraction is the Valley of the Kings, where over 60 pharaohs are buried, including the famous tomb of Tutankhamun. On the west bank, the Temple of Hatshepsut, built for the female pharaoh, is stunning with its unique architecture set against the desert cliffs. For those interested in learning more, the Luxor Museum offers fascinating insights into ancient artifacts.

Best time to visit

The ideal time to visit Luxor is during the cooler months from October to April, when temperatures are more comfortable for sightseeing. This period coincides with the peak tourist season, so expect larger crowds but also a buzz of activities and events. Summers, from May to September, can be extremely hot, with temperatures soaring above 40°C, making daytime excursions challenging. Visiting during the shoulder seasons of late spring or early autumn can offer a pleasant experience with fewer tourists. Regardless of when you visit, early mornings and late afternoons are the best times for outdoor activities, avoiding the midday heat.
