Itinerary
-
Visit the Luxor and Mummification Museum
- Meet your guide at your hotel and visit the Luxor Museum in the Egyptian city of Luxor (ancient Thebes). Inaugurated in 1975, the museum is housed in a small, purpose-built building. The range of artifacts on display is far more restricted than the country's main collections in the Museum of Antiquities in Cairo. This was, however, deliberate, since the museum prides itself on the quality of the pieces it has, the uncluttered way in which they are displayed, and the clear multilingual labelling used.
- Transfer to Mummification Museum. It stands on the corniche, in front of the Mina Palace Hotel, to the north of Luxor Temple, overlooking the River Nile. The museum is intended to provide visitors with an understanding of the ancient art of mummification. The ancient Egyptians applied embalming techniques to many species, not only to dead humans.
- Head back to your hotel in Luxor.
