Afternoon and night in Luxor
... side of the Nile since that is where the sun goes down. No pictures are allowed in the Valley of the Kings which is a bummer but I later buy a DVD of pictures throughout Egypt which I will copy from. In the entryway, there is a model of the Valley showing how all the various graves were done throughout the valley, with many of the tombs having corridors that come within feet of each other. (This is how they ...
Luxor tour from Sadaga port
Safaga,is a working port on the coast of the Red Sea, brings you close to
what may be the world's greatest open-air museum -- the temples and
tombs of Luxor (what was ancient Thebes). "Close" is the important word

The bus ride from the Red Sea port to inland Luxor, which is in the Nile
Valley in central Egypt, is 3.5 hours each way, making for a very long
day. (Full-day shore excursions run 15 hours or more, and nearly
everyone ...

The scene that played out for the next hour and a half was like watching a herd of arts attack of a ...
May 8, 2012 - Luxor (Safaga), Egypt - Day 27
... lighter side we had music (ok sounded like music) all the way back. The people on the bus were going oh, ooh, ah, eeh, no, yeah all the way back. About 1 mile from the port just when we thought home free, the driver went around a roundabout and caught the bottom of his front door on the curb. The whole front door window shattered. We did not know exactly what happened. For the last mile of the trip we drove with the door opened. Ray said ...
Desert Jeep Safari, Bedouins & a Birthday Party!
We finally docked in Safaga after cruising the Red Sea for a couple of days. This was our first port in Egypt! It was hard to believe we were actually there. Looking out of our cabin we could see past the port and it was sand, sand, and more sand. Jagged mountains of sand with what looked like no vegetation at all on them. So starkly beautiful!. Our tour today was a "Desert Jeep Safari". On the pier we boarded enclosed 4X4 jeeps ...
