Luxor holidays

Luxor holidays offer the best of both worlds, with a fascinating culture and history for the visitor to explore, combined with a modern city with a vibrant nightlife, bustling bazaar, good restaurants, and great shopping.

If your interests include archaeology and history, you'll want to visit the famous 'Valley of the Kings' and 'Valley of the Queens', the ruins of the temples at Karnak and Luxor, Medinet Habu (the memorial temple of Ramesses III), the Ramesseum (the memorial temple of Ramesses II) and Deir al-Madinah (the workers' village). Luxor doesn't have a pyramid (unless you're n Las Vegas rather than Egypt), but you'll find no shortage of things to see and do here. You might like to take a boat trip down the Nile to see villages that have scarcely changed in hundreds of years, or visit the Temple of Denderah, book tickets for one of the impressive sound and light shows at Karnak temple, or take a hot air balloon trip over the Valleys of the Kings and Queens.

Luxor flights are easy to book and the proximity of Egypt to the UK means that cheap travel is easy to find. Luxor International Airport is just a five hour flight from the UK and if you're looking for a Luxor hotel you'll be spoilt for choice, from all-inclusive budget options for couples and families, to five star luxury for the independent traveller. Whilst Luxor weather is sunny and dry for most of the year, you'll find some great travel deals out of season, so a cheap holiday to Luxor could be the ideal holiday for you.
