Kurz gesagt: Sound and Light Show at Karnak Temple lasts 3 Stunden in Luxor, from $60.00 per person, with a licensed guide and hotel pick-up.
Überblick
See Karnak after dark, when voices, music and light bring the largest temple complex in Egypt to life. After sunset your representative collects you from your hotel or Nile cruise in Luxor for a show of about one hour.
The first part is a walk: you follow the Avenue of Sphinxes to the huge entrance, the great court and the hypostyle hall while a deep voice, speaking as a pharaoh, tells how rulers such as Tutankhamun, Ramesses II and Queen Hatshepsut, and later the Greek and Roman kings, added to the temple over more than two thousand years. In the second part you take a seat facing the sacred lake as the whole complex is lit and the story continues.
Hotel transfers in a private air-conditioned vehicle, an English-speaking guide, entrance fees, service charges and taxes are included. The ground at Karnak is uneven, so comfortable flat shoes are recommended.
The tour suits all ages. The price per person depends on group size and children pay less: see Prices by group size below.
