WEDNESDAY, JULY 28 — LUXOR: Arrive

You’ll fly into Luxor International Airport (LXR) where you’ll be met by InsightCruises’ representatives and then driven to your hotel, Steigenberger Resort Achti (hotel’s website). Rest and settle in. (In the slideshow at right, every other picture is from our hotel. The others are scenes of Luxor.)
