Avoid street hustlers! 🏜️ Must-Sees Attraction Rating Tips Hot Air Balloon ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sunrise views = unforgettable. Book ahead! Valley of the Kings ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ E-tickets let you visit extra tombs (Paper tickets limit to 3). Luxor Temple ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Go 1hr before sunset – stay for blue hour. Outer view ≠ inside! Medinat Habu ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best-preserved murals. Ticket office is 1km from entrance! Karnak Temple ⭐⭐⭐ Massive but repetitive. Pillars = prime photo spot. Colossi of Memnon ⭐ Skip – just rocks. Seen from balloons. 🏨 Where to Stay West Bank: Closer to balloons/Valley of the Kings. East Bank: More dining/shopping.
