This is indeed a stunning temple to visit and easy to do on your own. We were told that the local traders were not allowed in and we certainly did not see any when we were there. It is stunning at night but also lovely if you go around 3pm when it is still daylight, but the sun is passed... more

I took a Trafalgar Best of Egypt tour which included Luxor. The temples of Karnak and Luxor are awe inspiring as well as the Valley of the Kings. I thought it was worth paying extra to see King Tut's tomb as it was my first visit. If I were to go back I would visit other tombs. The only negative... more

We visited this Temple in the evening when it was cooler. You can do it your-self with the help of guide book or use one of the guides on site. It still had a few tour groups in. - It seems that they are coming here, first, then on to the Karnak Light and Sound show afterwards. Hope you like... more

I had visited Luxor Temple many years ago, but in the heat of the day where you are trying to dodge crowds and look for shade. Not so if you visit at night, which I done for the first time in May 2009. If you arrive just as the sun is going down and the floodlights come on, the temple... more

The Luxor temple is the best thing to see in all of Egypt. I thought it was the best because in one location you see ancient Egyptian, Greek (Alexander the Great), Roman, Coptic (Christian) and Islamic remains. The sight has a long heritage and spans many cultures. It was interesting to see them layered on top of each other. more

It’s easier to get your mind around Luxor Temple than Karnak and I say this because of Luxor’s smaller size and scale. The colonnades are impressive and stately and the temple is in far better condition. I spent a very pleasant afternoon at this temple without a guide and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Built during the eighteenth dynasty by Amenhotep III... more

This pretty little temple lies smack in the middle of the bustling city of Luxor, close to the Corniche and the Nile. You enter from the Corniche and walk down a pawed path until you are in front of the temple's large pylon. Looking back you see the remains of the alley of sfinxes leading north to the great temple... more

You must go and walk around the Luxor Temple, the best time is around 6pm when all the coach trips have left and you can see everything. until you stand next to the pillars and see the height, you will be amazed at the craving at the very top of these large pillars. more

I really enjoyed Luxor Temple. It was amazing and there was so much detail. The only thing that I would recommend is that if you are going to Karnak Temple too I would go to Luxor Temple first otherwise it makes Luxor Temple feel really small. We walked around the whole of Luxor Temple in less then 1 hour. It... more
