Why this trip
Anyone standing by the Nile in Luxor at six in the morning sees balloons rising above the temples, and couples like to share that moment. The city is regarded as Egypt's great open-air museum, and the cooler season from October to April is the better one, as in summer it gets very hot. The Karnak Temple with its columned halls is suited to the morning, while the Luxor Temple looks especially atmospheric in the evening light. In the Valley of the Kings you descend into tombs whose paintings are preserved, and the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut lies impressively before a rock wall.
The Luxor Museum offers a quiet break in the afternoon. After so many impressions, a night in a house on the Nile suits well, for instance at the Jolie Ville Resort & SPA Kings Island, the Hilton Luxor Resort & Spa or the Steigenberger Resort Achti. Aswan to the south, and Hurghada and Marsa Alam on the Red Sea, work well as further stops. The flight takes about 4 to 4.5 hours, and according to the information available a visa is required, via visa on arrival or eVisa, please check.
How you mix culture and beach is something Honeymoon will discuss with you on a video call.
