Why this trip
Temples that are older than any mosque in the world, and a Nile that flows through a valley full of tombs: Luxor is an open-air museum in which, with children, it is best to start early. The midday heat makes sightseeing tiring. The Karnak Temple, with its halls and more than twenty temples, is the largest complex, and the Luxor Temple lies in the middle of the city and is illuminated in the evening. On the west side of the Nile await the Valley of the Kings and the mortuary temple of Hatshepsut, and the Luxor Museum holds finds from everyday life in antiquity.
The Winter Palace Luxor and the Hilton Luxor Resort & Spa are on the hotel list. For prayer and meals the same applies as in all of Egypt: ask about your wishes before booking. The best time runs from October to April; in summer it gets too hot for children. Aswan, Hurghada, El Gouna and Marsa Alam are the neighbours, and Hurghada on the Red Sea is a good place for a few beach days to finish.
If you combine Luxor with a Nile trip to Aswan, you experience the landscape from the water, which is comfortable for grandparents.
