And what's he got to do with King Tut? No, it's not a new Korean car brand and also no Swedish boyband. But maybe it is the earliest name of the one and only God the Jews, Christians and Muslims worship until today ...

Today he is the most famous of the all, but until 1922, nobody, expect a few egyptologist had ever heard of King Tut.

Ballooning in Luxor is one of the coolest things to do in general and it is even cooler when you do it over the treasures of Luxor.

Doing your own thing in Egypt can be overwhelming at first, but it also is extremely rewarding if you engage with a foreign culture. Let me tell you about my experiences in Egypt.

The Sound and Light show at the Temple of Karnak is a unique and spectacular experience that brings the ancient temple to life after dark.

The Luxor Museum is a small, but very well curated archeological museum.

When you arrive in Luxor by boat, the New Corniche will be your first impression of Luxor. And it will probably be a good one.

Don't confuse the Souq with the tourist bazaar. The first is the real thing, whereas the latter is a hurdle race with enhanced conditions.

The Avenue leads straight from the huge Temple Complex of Karnak to the Temple of Luxor and just for one reason: Love! Every year, Amun and his wife Mut where taken to renew their eternal marriage. Isn't it romance?

Right in the city center of modern Luxor – just across McDonald's – you'll see your first Egyptian monument when coming from the airport. It what a monument it is!

The Temple of Karnak is certainly the biggest religious "building" – let us better call it "area" – of Antiquity and probably even today. It is just overwhelming!

This temple is one of the most famous monuments of Egypts.
