Thank you so much, You have brought back so many happy memories of my times spent in Luxor. Unfortunately we can no longer fly into Luxor from the UK and I miss it, and my friends there. Karnak looks very quiet. The light and sound show there was amazing. Love to everyone there 💕

Fantastic narrated tour!! Just amazing! Wish l could have Lesley as my guide!
My favorite guide, im so happy i found you on youtube, because i live in Australia, it isso hard sometimes to get up at different hours, I enjoy your tours so much, thank you Lesley .
Thanks a lot Lesley. We visited Egypt, and Luxor especially as a part of the Nile cruise, last February. Your 45 minutes video was one of the guidance that we took in enjoying the vital areas of this temple.
Im tour guide, but I learn from you welcome to Egypt alot of thanks 🙏
Very cool. Thanks for explaining all the details 👍🏼☀️🙏🏻
Thank you, great work 👍
Thank you too! We have a video of Giza that we hope to publish soon.
Awesome. Really enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing 👍
Many thanks Lesley - I enjoyed your explanations and I could feel your love for this place - could you please let me know which is the coptic monastery you mentioned which has recycled the stones from Karnak Temple ?
Yass!! Awesome 👏

So I have to wonder how long the colors and paints will hold up now that they are exposed to the sun and elements.
It was really great job and fabulous camera work.Thanks a million, but if it is possible to change the part of translation at the start of the video about Amon-Ra as it was written the God of Thieves instead of the God of Thebes. Really great job.👏👏👏
Thanks very much for this tour. Would enjoy tours of other sites in Egypt, Morocco, Indian and Chinese cities, Anghor Wat (spelling?). Love the birds chirping in this video--pretty sounds and somehow make it easier to imagine how someone in the day would have experienced walking about or worshipping in the complex, since the ancestors of the current species were probably making the same sounds....
More to come. We plan to release videos on both the Giza pyramids and the Great Wall in the next few weeks, so stay tuned. One of the owners is from India, so safe to assume that we will be there as well.
Angkor Wat. You were close.
Thank you very much, this is a gift.
We are glad that you enjoyed the tour, Gilda! This means a lot to us. And stay tuned because we have a video coming up from Giza.

😍😍
Our pleasure, Jess. We will also be publishing a video from Giza in a few weeks, so stay tuned.

Where did the water come from for the Sacred Lakes?
no, I have not, but I can tell you when you use a pulley to move something heavy, a pulley halves the weight when pulling, but not when carrying, that remains the same, the beam on which a side pulley is attached must be able to carry the real weight, but at tarnak there were no beams
to support that bridge or lock would be too big and too heavy, the pillars that carry the weight serve that purpose and that is why the whole building is built downwards, that is what I can tell you and this is just my opinion
👍
It's awesome, I need your help if you're living in Luxor !
Thank you so much but your sound wasn't as loud as I would have liked.
I had my sound right up and I understand there's ppl milling about.
I am deaf in my left ear and wear headphones.
I never have a problem with the brilliant #SineadOLeary who I love.

Noted. We are going to fix the volume issue in future videos. We are glad that you still were able to enjoy this. We hope you stick around.
@@freetoursbyfoot3384 OH God yes I will always be around.
And thank you about the audio.
The stones will laugh because this is not a temple.
This is clearly a fort on the river side.
The 8 niches that you see at the entrance are to block the supporting beams of a bridge and when the bridge is lifted, the beams fit into those niches. The holes above the niches serve to allow the pulleys and ropes to pass through to the rear. is that those pillars are so close together to absorb the weight of the bridge.
with those pulleys because they support the bridge
Do you have any illustrations or videos depicting what you are describing.

Your intro looks like an ad
The sound production values are quite low. Often Lesley's voice drops too low for us to hear what she is saying and the explanation of what we are looking at is lost. Also, many times it is not clear, as in the Tuthmosis III area, what we are looking at. Also, there are many points along the way that she does not explain. The areas just appear as yet more broken blocks. Generally, a more professional approach production would have been appreciated. There are a few misattributions. One is the attribution of the sphinxes in the Sphinx Avenue. Lesley attributed these to Ramesses II whereas they were actually created by Nectanebo. She said the First Pylon was made by Amenhotep III whereas it also was actually made by Nectanebo. Also, the Hypostyle Hall was created by Sethy I not Amenhotep III and finished by Ramesses II.
Generally, I appreciated hearing about more areas like the lesser temples than are usually covered in tours of Karnak. I especially liked hearing about and seeing Amun`s Holy of Holies and the Sacred Lake.
THERE WERE NO GODS!!!!!!!!!!!
