Continue to the fabulous Luxor Museum, where you will find the finest collections of Egyptian antiquities, one such statue being a granite head of Amenhotep III, as well as the marvelous artifacts that came from Tutankhamun's tomb along with amazing statues representing ancient Egypt's artistic marvels.

Next, take a look at the interesting Mummification Museum, where you will see one of Egypt's best-known customs.

There is also a display of some mummified animals and funerary antiquities within the museum.

A delicious lunch will be enjoyed at one of Luxor's finest and most selective restaurants before you commence on further sightseeing endeavors.

Following your lunch, spend your afternoon marveling at the magnificent Luxor Temple. This vast temple was erected by Amenhotep the Third and was later expanded upon by Ramses the Second.

Following this visit to Luxor Temple, you will then embark upon yet another astonishing sightseeing destination, Karnak Temple Complex.
