sound and light show at Karnak temple is a 1½-hour Hollywood-style extravaganza that recounts the history of Thebes and the lives of the many pharaohs who built here in honour of Amun, but it is worth a visit particularly for a chance to walk through the beautifully lit temple at night
At 5:30 p.m.
we will depart from the hotels in the center of Luxor and around 6:00 p.m. from
your hotel on the outskirts or cruise ship, and we will go to the famous temple
of Karnak.
Built over
2000 years ago, Karnak is the largest preserved Egyptian temple to this day.
Seeing and touring it by day is an incredible experience, but discovering the
history of Upper Egypt in the dim light as the temple lights up is priceless.
The Karnak
Temple light and sound show lasts two hours, during which we will take a tour
to admire this impressive architectural work from a different perspective until
we reach the Great Sacred Lake. Here, we will take a seat and watch the light
show as the temple lights up before our eyes.
Throughout the
entire show, a pharaoh will tell us the history of the capital of the New
Empire and we will also have contributions from great historical figures such
as Tutankhamun, Ramses II and Queen Hatshepsut.
At the end of
the show we will return to the vehicle and take you back to your boat or hotel
at 9:00 p.m.
