    Although nowhere near as large as the Cairo museum a visit to the Luxor museum is still worthwhile

    There are some particularly fine New Kingdom statues and a reconstructed wall from the Armarna period.

    Luxor Museum is not rich with antiquities as Cairo's one. It has two levels where you can see very interesting thing mostly from this region.

    A colection of breathtaking pieces...They allowed me to take pictures and pieces are not protected (that made me irrational) but there's nothing I can do...

    If you want peace and quiet in the noise and heat of Luxor then the museum is a paradise.
    It has many realy good pieces and is one of the best museums in Egypt.

    Unlike the Cairo Museum you can see every item on display, take your time and read all the information an it will only take a couple of hours.

    At around 5.50 GBP 550 EP it's a bargain like most of the attractions in Egypt.

    The hours for the Museum are from 9 am to 1 PM and then from 4 PM until 9 PM. in the winter. Afternoon hours in the summer are from 5 PM until 10 PM.

    The Luxor Museum of Ancient Art is worth a visit, if only because it is air conditioned. The museum's outside and inside have been designed with care. The displays are very good and the light is briljant (sometimes to). Also, there is not too much, like in the Egyptian museum in Caïro. Used the illustrated guide to Luxor to guide us through the highlights. The only drawback during our visit was a guide that spoke very loud, as if he was still in the open air. We paid 55 pounds each.

  • This Museum is a gem. It's not particularly large but it's very well presented and the artefacts are clearly labelled in a very interesting way ( unlike the labelling at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo).
    Nor was it crowded out with tourists.
    It was great to see the Egyptian school kids wandering around flitting from one exhibit to the next and chattering eagerly.
    Pity I don't have a photo of the exterior. There is a book shop attached to the Museum where you can purchase guides. I don't think photography is allowed inside.
    There's a video show to watch first and then to look at the exhibits will probably take about one hour.
    Enjoy it.

    Luxor Museum: Tourist and Antiquities Police

  • Whilst at Luxor Temple on our first day we were approached by a local who decided that he would show us the sites for a small fee.
    In our naivety we followed and after a brief and confusing description of the glyphs he demanded we give him baksheesh.
    A member of the Tourist and Antiquities Police then appeared and ushered him away. We were then asked to follow him into a remote part of thetemple where he unslung his weapon and demanded that we gave him some money. Having a Kalashnikov pointed at you is an effective method of parting with your money so we complied. After leaving the site we reported the matter to the office located on the main road opposite the Anubis shoppng centre where the matter was then investigated and the officer was arrested. NOTE - This is frowned upon by the authorities and will not be tolerated. If caught in this situation comply with reason and report it later to the Chief of Police for Tourist and Antiquities.
