Нам экскурсия очень понравилась! Луксор впечатлил даже больше чем Каир и пирамиды. Храмы просто огромные и потрясающие. Для меня самый впечатляющий храм это КАРНАК. Спасибо Нил Вояж! Советуем!!

Из отеля выехали рано утром, приехали в Луксор к 9:30. По приезду смотрели Карнак, очень впечатляет и завораживает. Храм царицы тоже нам очень понравился, обязательно для посещения! Гид у нас был Мухаммед, Его рассказы очень интересны, нам очень понравилось с ним. Спасибо Нил Вояж!! Рекомендую!!
