To have an ideal journey in Luxor and cover the most important architectural sites, you will need at least 2 to 3 days. This time allows you to explore the sites of the East Bank in one day, the sites of the West Bank on another day, and allocate an extra day for entertainment activities such as hot air ballooning or visiting museums.
• The first day (the East Bank): visit Karnak Temple (the largest religious complex in the world) and Luxor temple, preferred visit the latter at night or sunset to enjoy the lighting.
• The second day (the West Bank): discover Wadi Al Melouk, the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut (Deir el-Bahari), and the Colossi of Memnon.
• The third day (optional/in depth): enjoy a hot air balloon ride early in the morning, visit the Valley of the Queens, or take a relaxing Nile cruise through sailboats (dahabiya) or a felucca.
