Frequently Asked Questions About Luxor
Best time to visit, how many days to plan and the tours that include Luxor.
How many days do I need in Luxor?
Two days is the usual split: one for the East Bank temples at Karnak and Luxor, another for the West Bank tombs and mortuary temples. A third day suits ballooning or a slower pace.
Is Luxor where Nile cruises start?
Many do. Cruises run in both directions between Luxor and Aswan, so a sailing may begin here or finish here depending on the vessel and the week.
