Luxor Sightseeing

Temple of Amenhotep son of Hapu Thought you had seen it all but I bet you haven't been here. Next door to the Pharone Hotel along from the ticket office. It is the only mortuary temple for a non royal, he was Amenhotep III architect. Go on to the roof of the hotel to get a sense of the plan. Opposite the temples of Ay and Horemheb

On the top of the mountain you can see with the flat top, north of The Valley of the Kings, is a temple. Thoth Hill is actually the site of two temples: an archaic temple that may date to around 3,000 BC, making it the oldest temple on the West Bank at Luxor, and built upon it, a later temple built by an 11th Dynasty pharaoh known as Sankhkare Mentuhotep. You'll need a local guide to help you find the way up but if you like walking, you'll enjoy the unique view.

Assasif tombs - At the temple of Hatshepsut you can also buy tickets for three tombs in the Asasif. When you have finished your visit have a wander round; there are many teams working in this area and you may get lucky and have a chat with a famous archaeologist. These tombs, many of the Late Period, are enormous, with huge courtyards. Be prepared to pay the guardians a small tip.
