The temple consists of three successive floors with open terraces. The temple was built of limestone, and in front of the second floor columns were erected limestone statues of the god Osiris and Queen Hatshepsut in a beautiful distribution.

Thank you Captain Amr, our flight was amazing. From the moment we lifted from the ground until you gently touched the basket back down after the flight I felt completely safe. Flying high above the Temples and excavation sites you became our guide. Thank you for such a beautiful experience.

Salma was very courteous and personable. She gave us insight into navigating our way through the many vendors and what to avoid, which was very helpful. She gave us time to take photos and see everything.

Laila is such a nice tour guide. She is knowledgeable and patient. Our balloon trip and valley of the kings visit were very well paced. Lunch was well planned and yummy as well. Very rarely to see a female tour guide. I am happy to see her, a professional lady.

We missed the sunrise in the morning, instead spending over 2 hours waiting either in the vehicle or out in the field, but once we got up there the view was absolutely breathtaking and the landing was soft.
Our tour of the temples afterwards with our guide Laila was well paced and interesting. Of all the tour guides we've had in our 3 weeks in Egypt, she was the most informative, friendly, and enthusiastic, despite the heat that day.
An absolutely incredible -- though admittedly exhausting with how jam-packed it is -- day in Luxor.
