Upon arrival in Luxor, the guests will be met by a representative who will facilitate their transfer to the MS Royal Viking Nile Cruise. After being checked into their cabin, the guests will be provided a short break before enjoying their first lunch meal aboard the cruise ship.
The tour will commence with the guests meeting their English-speaking Egyptologist guide in the lobby. Luxor, situated approximately 700 kilometers south of Cairo, is a city with a population of almost 500,000 people, whose economy is largely driven by tourism and agriculture.
The first stop on the Luxor East Bank tour will be the magnificent Karnak Temple, the largest temple in Egypt. This colossal religious complex was constructed and expanded over a period of 2,000 years, evolving from a simple shrine during the New Kingdom into a vast and impressive structure.
Following the visit to Karnak Temple, the guests will be transferred to the renowned Luxor Temple, located within the city that bears its name. This temple was rediscovered in 1884 and is situated on the East Bank of the Nile River in Luxor.
After the Luxor excursions, the guests will return to the cruise ship for an overnight stay, with the option to attend an optional Sound and Light Show at Karnak Temple in the evening.
