Two days in Luxor at your own pace, travelling by private car or minivan. The Nile divides the city into the east bank, the City of the Living, and the west bank, the City of the Dead — and in two days you see the best of both.

Day one

Karnak, the largest temple complex in Egypt with its forest of columns, the scarab statue and the sacred lake. Then a boat across the Nile, lunch by the river, the Colossi of Memnon and the Temple of Hatshepsut.

Day two

After a night in a hotel (and an optional sunrise balloon flight) you visit the Luxor Temple and the Avenue of Sphinxes, then the Valley of the Kings with its painted royal tombs and Medinet Habu, the temple of Ramesses III.

We went on this trip during our holiday in Egypt. Loved it — what we saw exceeded all our expectations. It felt as if we'd spent two days in another civilisation.

Learning about a country's history and culture from school textbooks, books and TV is one thing. Seeing these places with your own eyes is a completely different experience. A banana picked straight from the tree and eaten on the spot always tastes sweeter.

I didn't expect to learn so much in just two days! Loved the lunch with a view of the river — everything was great.
