Day 7: Sail to Edfu for Edfu Temple. Visit Karnak and Luxor Temple in the Evening.


We start our tour very early in the morning before sunrise to Edfu temple. We starting off with a horse cart ride to the temple.
This temples is not in the world heritage site listing but tentative list. Afterall it is still a great experience.
After visiting the temple, then we continue sailing towards Luxor where we passing by the Esna lock which is a good experience where it is like a elevator for the cruise.
The Esna lock is locking the river to control the water level. So we experience the Esna lock for the cruise lift.

We enjoyed the cruise sailing until we reach Luxor before sunset. We quickly rush to the Karnak and Luxor temples.
Karnak is a great temple where there are very high tower and very grand hall at the temple. It is one of the great famous world heritage sites at Luxor.
The guide bring us to a a secret place where we can take a bird eye view of Karnak temple.
Then ending the day at another world heritage site, Luxor temple.
We reach and visit Luxor temple at night witha total different feeling at night with all the lighting.
