Luxor & Aswan Holidays


africa
Holidays to Luxor and Aswan offer a fantastic array of historic monuments and iconic sites. Situated on the eastern banks of the Nile, the modern day city of Luxor is built around the spectacular Karnak and Luxor Temples. To the west are some of Egypt’s most important archaeological sites, including the Valley of the Kings (home to the tomb of Tutankhamun), the Valley of the Queens and the beautiful Temple of Hatshepsut.

Picturesque Aswan is home to the famous Philae Temple, which was dramatically relocated stone by stone following the construction of the Aswan High Dam and creation of Lake Nasser. Enjoy the laidback atmosphere in the city whilst watching traditional feluccas sail gently across the River Nile to Elephantine Island or the botanic gardens.

Trailfinders offers a range of holidays to Luxor & Aswan and our expert travel consultants are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand travel experience. Whether you want to take in the sites as part of a Nile Cruise, or linger longer on the banks of the river as part of a longer Egypt holiday – they are the perfect people to ask.
