Things To Do
The most popular activities to do on a Luxor holiday are camel riding, felucca riding, caleche trips and ballooning. Explore Cairo’s ancient sites or spend the day shopping in the shops and bazaars for locally made products such as shawls, carpets, glass and gold and silver jewellery. Take to the Nile on a boat trip or for golfers there’s the 18-hole Royal Valley Golf Club with stunning views across Luxor’s West Bank.
Food & Drink
There are many traditional restaurants and cafes to tempt your taste buds in Luxor. Egyptian cuisine combines many of the best traditions of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cooking. Local specialities include stuffed vine leaves, falafel, koshari and kebabs. Although Egypt is a Muslim country, alcohol is available in cafe-style bars, hotels and many restaurants in larger towns, cities and resorts.
In The Evening
The Nile waterfront is the place to head in the evening, where you’ll find many bars and restaurants to choose from. Listen to local folk music in one of the city’s music clubs, enjoy a dinner cruise on the Nile or take a moonlit tour in a horse drawn carriage through Luxor’s streets.
