Ready to visit the world’s “largest open-air museum”?
They say that a third of the world’s monuments are located in one city… Luxor! If you really want to see the greatness of the pharaohs, enter tombs whose colors are still the same as they were thousands of years ago, and see the legendary Karnak Temple, then a trip to Luxor from Hurghada is your first choice.
At Hurghada Friends , we guarantee you an unforgettable day trip. The journey to Luxor is closer than to Cairo, and the route is scenic, winding through the mountains and villages of Upper Egypt. We’ll take you to both the East and West Banks, cross the Nile by boat, and have a skilled guide who will tell you the whole story from beginning to end.
