Luxor has so many awe-inspiring sights that it more than warrants this two-day trip. It’s a fantastic opportunity to fully immerse yourself in the city’s 4,000-year old history. Travelling by road, your adventure starts at Karnak Temple. All soaring pillars, this Nile-side wonder was ancient Egypt’s most important religious site. After lunch, take a look around Luxor Museum - it’s packed with eerie mummies and glittering antiquities.
