Me n the kids went to the museum, one loves them, one doesn't! However there was lots to see in the museum and you can get up close to the exhibits, more so than in an English museum. It is deathly quiet everywhere so you do feel a bit "watched" and the guards monitor your every move! There are things... more

On my recent (first) trip to Egypt I went to two museums, Cairo and Luxor - two very different experiences, but Luxor was by far the best. After buying your tickets you go straight ahead through the entrance - to the left there is the cinema for the introductory film (continuous), to the right a cafe and gift shop, and... more

In all the years we have been travelling to Luxor, we had never visited the museum so it was on the list of ‘things to do’ in May this year. We had a few grey dull days at the start of our holiday so decided to visit the museum – it was awesome! The entrance charge was 80LE per adult,... more

Luxor Museum is definitely worth a visit, particularly at the beginning of your stay before you go to any tombs or temples - it gives you a good understanding of the history of Luxor. There are signs in English and Arabic by each exhibit, so it is easy to understand what you are seeing. A word of warning though -... more

The rather unattractive exterior belies the wonderful interior of this museum which is well worth a visit. There are wonderful exhibits and these are very well displayed with plenty of information, in English, about each piece. There is a prescribed trail round the museum so that you see items in their proper sequence and in context. The museum is not... more

Amazing museum, makes Cairo museum look like a store room! The modern, simple lighting and positioning of the artifacts shows off the beauty of ancient egyptian art perfectly. It is truely a stunning collection, it has a couple of iconic pieces such as the gilded horned cows head and a chariot for Tutenkarmun's tomb and many other wonderful objects, easily... more

Luxor museum is a new modern air conditioned building with everything well laid out and well marked up, not as many exhibits as Cairo but much better laid out and very clean, perfect way to spend a couple of hours, as in other places photography is not allowed inside the building and has a nice cafe on the way out,... more

The Luxor Museum is an ideal place to spend a hot afternoon (it is airconditioned) away from the hustle and bustle of the town. But don't go there just to get a whiff of air con. The pieces on display here are masterpieces from Ancient Egypt, put on display in a modern and very appealing manner. You will walk awestruck... more

This is a new museum, with innovative arrangement of exhibits. Unlike the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, this is smaller, exhibiting less artifacts, but in a very comprehensive and educative way. It's a very nice overview of the long Thebes history from the Old Kingdom until Coptic christianity. Highly recommended more
