class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In March 2026, I met up again with my tour guide Sheemy in Luxor, whom I had met two years earlier in Hurghada. There, you can experience the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoveregypt.org\/mini-egypt\/\">Land of the Pharaohs at Mini Egypt<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoveregypt.org\/spider-cars\/\">explore the desert on a quad bike or in a spider car<\/a>.<\/p><p>Instead of the usual, classic temple tours, I asked him to show me the filming locations for the James Bond movie \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=v74VngkN138&amp;t=24s\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Spy Who Loved Me<\/a>\u2019. Along the way, he also introduced me to the world of the pharaohs and gods in his own charming and inimitable way.<\/p><p>First, we visited the largest temple in Egypt, the Karnak Temple. We then took a taxi to the other side of the Nile \u2013 the so-called West Bank \u2013 to the Ramesseum, the temple of Ramses II.<\/p><p>There, we had a lot of fun reenacting some scenes from this James Bond classic at the original locations, which made for an extraordinary tour of the temple. Sheemy played his part in ensuring that we learned not only more about James Bond, but also Ramses II.<\/p><p>Sheemy was a first-rate guide on my other tours, such as to the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the nightly Sound &amp; Light Show at Karnak Temple (an absolute \u2018must-see\u2019 in Luxor). If you\u2019d like to have this kind of fun too\u2014and not just see artifacts\u2014I\u2019d be happy to put you in touch with Sheemy via my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoveregypt.org\/contact\/\"
