Hi everyone, I have 7 full days to visit Luxor, Aswan, and Abu Simbel. Could you help me figure out whether I’ve split the days correctly?

I was thinking of spending 3 days in Luxor, 1 day traveling from Luxor to Aswan while visiting the temples along the way, and 3 days in Aswan, including a day trip to Abu Simbel.

Is it better to spend 3 days in Luxor and 3 days in Aswan (including the day trip to Abu Simbel), or 4 days in Luxor and 2 days in Aswan (including the day trip to Abu Simbel)?

What do you think?

Day 1: Late evening arrival in Luxor

Day 2: Luxor

Day 3: Dendera, Abido

Day 4: Luxor

Day 5: Khnu, Edfu and Kom during transfer from Luxor to Aswan

Day 6: Aswan

Day 7: Abu Simbel

Day 8: Aswan

Day 9: Early morning departure

I only have 7 full days, and I don't have enough time to visit both northern and southern Armenia without rushing around the whole time.

Would you recommend the north (Gyumri, Dilijan, Lori) or the south (Goris, Tatev, etc.)?

I rented a car for the trip. The trip will be in October.

I'm planning to spend 2 full days in Yerevan (the first and the last ones) and 1 day visiting Garni and Geghard. Is it too much?

What do you think of my itinerary? Thanks!
