Luxor Tour by a horse-drawn carriage

Itinerary Highlights

The itinerary for a Luxor horse carriage tour is less about visiting specific historical sites and more about a scenic and cultural ride through the city. The route is flexible and can be customized, but it typically includes the following:

• Nile Corniche: A leisurely ride along the Corniche, the main street that runs along the Nile River. This provides beautiful views of the water, the boats, and the West Bank.
• Avenue of Sphinxes: A ride along parts of this ancient road that once connected Luxor Temple and Karnak Temple. It’s a great way to see the restoration work and the grand scale of this historical pathway.
• Luxor Temple: You will ride past the illuminated exterior of the temple, which is a magnificent sight, especially in the evening. The tour typically does not include entry into the temple.
• Local Markets (Souks): Your driver will take you through the bustling local markets. This gives you a glimpse into the everyday life of Luxor’s residents, with vendors selling fresh produce, spices, and local goods.
• Old City: A ride through the older, more traditional neighborhoods of Luxor, allowing you to see the historic buildings and residential areas.
• Old Winter Palace: You will pass by this iconic, colonial-era hotel, which is a historic landmark in itself.

The duration of these tours is typically between one and two hours, but can be customized to be longer.
