Luxor is the best city

Luxor impressed us with its monumental temples and tombs in the Valley of the kings. We do recommend to stay more than one day in Luxor to see all that structures that are left from the ancient civilization. Every temple you enter is differ from the one your saw before, some are very colourful while others do not have any decorations. Do not skip balloon ride in the morning to complete the experience.
