- kherOStaffordshireEccleshall, UK112 contributionsThe amazing avenue of sphinxes is really worth the walk, there are plenty of places to sit and rest on the way if you need to. We started the walk at Karnak and walked to Luxor temple, the Karnak ticket allows you to walk to a half way point. If you want to continue to Luxor there is a ticket office where you can purchase a further ticket.
It is an amazing feat to have uncovered the avenue but it could be so much better. Signage at Karnak is non existent, we had to Google Earth the temple to find the start point. The middle section is strewn with plastic rubbish when the walk could be made to be so much more attractive.Written November 15, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It is a picturesque area, but you will be bombarded by hawkers trying to sell carriage rides, souvenirs and trinkets. It is incessant. We were only able to avoid the harassment by being in a large tour group. Our tour guide described them as “vultures”. He told us not to make eye contact with them or acknowledge them in any way or they would follow you all the way to the bus or your boat trying to sell you something. It helps to be wearing sunglasses.Written November 17, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- RazorfishLittle Rock, AR5,281 contributionsMy wife and I visited the Temple of Karnak site, which contains the Obelisk of Hatshepsut, during a tour of Egypt this past December. The first obelisk you encounter upon entering the site is the Obelisk of Thutmoses I on the right. The Obelisk of Hatshepsut is on the left a little farther into the site and it is the taller of the two. In fact, it is the tallest obelisk in Egypt and the second tallest in the world. The only one taller is in Rome. It amazed me to see these obelisks with such intricate carvings that are still intact in such good condition after all these centuries.Written November 21, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
