The local operator will make every effort to provide lunch at a local restaurant as planned. However, due to the exceptionally high demand expected in Luxor, restaurant capacity may be limited. If circumstances beyond the local operator's control prevent them from providing lunch at a restaurant, they may provide a lunch box instead at the scheduled lunch time. Your guide will advise you of any necessary changes on the day
If your accommodation is on a full-board or all-inclusive basis, it is recommended arranging a takeaway breakfast to enjoy on the way, an additional lunch box if needed, and a late dinner with your hotel reception before the tour date, subject to your accommodation conditions
As a precaution, and due to the expected high volume of guests, the exact viewing location may be adjusted between Luxor Temple and the West Bank of Luxor, depending on local access arrangements and operational conditions on the day.
