The town itself is relatively compact and quite easily explored on foot. However, if the heat gets too much there are always the options of either caleche (horse-drawn carriage) or taxi, both of which are reasonably cheap. Expect to be cajoled into visiting certain shops as part of the deal, whereby the driver receives commission for taking you there ‘just to look’. By all means visit these shops but don’t feel obliged to buy anything you don’t want. Transport links to other parts of Egypt are excellent with Luxor situated on the main rail line: with several daily departures north to Cairo and south to Aswan. Long distance or service taxis (minibuses usually) are currently off-limits to foreign visitors as a security precaution due to the frequent stops they make.
