The jewels of Luxor’s East Bank, the spectacular Temples of Karnak and Luxor form the largest and most impressive temple complex in Egypt.    

Although badly ruined over time, you still cannot help but be simply overawed by Karnak Temple. An amazing feat of human engineering, the temple complex comprises three temples and took several generations to complete. The centrepiece is undoubtedly the Temple of Amun-Ra, the largest surviving column-supported temple in the World. With the help of your expert guide you will discover mysterious hieroglyphics, colossal statues and towering obelisks including the temples’ most recognisable feature, the hypostyle hall containing 134 free standing columns.  The Temples of Karnak and Luxor were once connected by a grand avenue lined with sphinxes. Although much of this avenue has now disappeared, some of the Sphinxes remain and can be seen as you approach Luxor Temple. A huge statue of Ramses II stands guard over the sacred Luxor Temple and beyond its entrance you can view the courtyard of Ramses II, the small temple of Tutmose III and various side chapels depicting scenes of battles and religious ceremonies.
