The Luxor Temple: Suggested Itinerary While in Egypt

The Temple of Luxor is located on the Corniche in Luxor, beside the Nile. You should be able to see the Temple in one half day.

Take plenty of time to see the beautiful reliefs in the Processional Colonade. Explore all the way to the back to see the rooms beyond the colonade, some of which have Greco-Roman additions.

You should also walk out from the front pylon, down the Avenue of Spinxes and then walk back toward the Temple to imagine it as it would have been in it's day.

While you are on the Corniche take a carriage ride out to Crocodile Island to enjoy the countryside. Crocodile Island is the site of the Movenpick Jolie Hotel. We found this carriage ride, at twilight, to be one of the most memorable parts of our trip.

Also, there is a new museum of mummification on the Corniche. In fact, I strongly recommend you take a stroll along the Corniche.

Karnak is close by, but it is so large and complex, I think it deserves a full day and a booking for the evening Sound and Light show. 

The Lonely Planet Guide starts it's coverage of Luxor on page 268. It contains a detailed map of the city and all the emergency information you will need. The descriptions of Luxor Temple start on page 271.

The Penguin Guide coverage of the Temple of Luxor begins on page 303and includes a detailed description of the reliefs.
