We left our hotel in Giza for the train to Luxor. We set off at 10.30am and arrived at 8.30pm. The journey was comfortable if not the cleanest. We had a substantial packed lunch provided by the Crowne Hotel which was enough for lunch and tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were pleased to get on our coach and travel ten minutes to the Sonesta St George Hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only one night here then off on our Nile Cruise tomorrow!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
