Experience the wonders of ancient Egypt with Next Holiday Travel on a truly memorable day tour in Luxor. On this half-day, you will discover two of the unique museums in the town: the Luxor Museum and the Mummification Museum. Inside the Luxor Museum, you can see amazing artifacts that range from the Old Kingdom to the Mamluks including incredible statues that were originally discovered at the Luxor Temple.Embarking on your day at the Mummification Museum reveals the secrets of ancient Egyptian preservation, with mummified human bodies, sacred animals, and the original embalming utensils. It can provide pick up and drop off service from any Luxor hotel. This tour, then, is the perfect concoction of comfort, history, and discovery. An absolute must for families, culture buffs, and those with a passion for ancient Egyptian heritage, it is one of the few opportunities to live under the spell cast by the morning legacies of Luxor.
Your short excursion of half a day starts with a hotel pick up, first going to the Luxor Museum and then to the Mummification Museum. The trip is set in the ancient city of Luxor, formerly known as Thebes, and the first stop is at the Luxor Museum. Opened in 1975, this new, specifically constructed museum has on display an ancient treasure collection of selective quality. Luxor Museum does not rival Cairo’s Museum of Antiquities in the number of exhibits but presents a smaller number of selected pieces for their first-class quality, and these are superbly shown with clear explanations in different languages.
The following destination is the Mummification Museum, which is located on the Nile Corniche of Luxor, opposite the Mina Palace Hotel, and just north of the Luxor Temple. This museum provides an interesting view of the mummification practice done by the ancient Egyptians, showing not just the preservation of the human bodies but also the animal ones for the afterlife. After your tour is over, you will be conveniently taken back to your hotel in Luxor.
