Start your unforgettable Luxor day tour by visiting Karnak Temple, dedicated to the god Amun. Luxor Temple was the power base of the living divine king and once featured two red granite obelisks at its entrance; today, only one remains, while the other was transported to Paris and now stands in the centre of Place de la Concorde. At the end of your tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Luxor. Explore our Egypt day tours to discover more destinations across the country.
Pick-up at 07:30. You will be collected from your hotel by your guide from Next Holiday and travel to visit Karnak Temple, the largest place of worship ever built. Its ancient name, Ipet-isut, means “the most sacred of places.” The temple, or more accurately the complex of temples, was built over more than two thousand years by successive generations of pharaohs. Within the complex, the Great Hypostyle Hall is an awe-inspiring forest of giant pillars.
You will then be transferred to the magnificent Luxor Temple, built by Amenhotep III and Ramses II for rituals and festivals, and dedicated to the god Amun. After the visit, you will be returned to your hotel.

The depth of the Temple of Karnak is greater than that of Luxor; Karnak was influenced by many pharaohs and is much older than Luxor Temple, which only represents a small number of these figures.
Karnak Temple is the site of the beginning of time. Ancient Egyptians also believed that it was a point of contact between the god Amun-Ra and the Egyptians. It is important in Egypt's cultural history because it was a place of worship and contains information about ancient Egyptian religion so nowadays it's among the important temples in Luxor day tours.
Luxor Temple in what was originally Thebes was "the place of the First Occasion," where the god Amon was reborn during the pharaoh's annual reenacted coronation ceremony, its has an interesting history to know among the gathering information about the tombs and temples of Luxor.
