Customer Reviews
Such a disappointing light and sound show. Boring and not engaging. Lasted for one hour, I struggled to keep my eyes open. Dress warmly during winter. At the point of this review, the average rating was 4.5*. Very suspicious. Wear was even more annoying was that my travel agent charged a 100% mark up. The ticket costs USD25 but we paid double that.
Nice to see the temple with lighting but let's be honest.... 40€ is a scam for this. Wirh so little extra you could get way better, impressive, synched and thrilling light show at an EDM festival
We visited both Luxor and Karnak temple during the day and were lured back in for the Sound and Light show. Fortunately, the day visit was well worth it! Unfortunately, can't quite say the same for the S&L show at $20 pp. There is so much potential to use up to date technology to execute a beautiful masterpiece here in Karnak, however, what we experienced was dated and quite frankly boring, which I didn't think would be something I would mention. Would request the team to look at recreating this show from scratch as the infrastructure is there but needs a lot of refinement to keep people interested. So much history but the execution was very poor I am afraid. The only positive was some of the lighting at night shown through some parts of the columns that were beautifully lit.
