advice for Luxor, Egypt?

i shall be going to luxor at the end of july for one week only with my 2 teenage daughters, my sister and her 8 year old son. i know its going be extremely hot but have read all the advice from tripadvisor members, especially to go on trips early in the morning and to relax in afternoon. as i will be spending only one week there what should be top of my list to visit bearing in mind that i dont really want to spend a full day sightseeing because of the heat but would prefer to be back at hotel by lunch time? evenings i guess my daughters will love to go around the shops. i would be grateful for any advice

Try the Valley of the Kings on the west bank with Hatshepsut one day. The Luxor museum is a must and its air conditioned. Also Karnak on the east banks also a must. If you have or want more, then it’s back to the west bank again and try anyone of the following but don’t try more than two places, three at the outside in one day. valley of the queens, or the workman both have wonderful tombs but the queens is formal while the workman less so and very small tombs but the paint is amazing in both. Mediniet habu nice little cafes outside too or the ramaseum. Buy water to take with you, the touts will charge a lot more on sites. Your daughters will attract a lot of attention. If you are happy for them to go out there is a disco in the etap hotel, the whole family can go there if you like there is usually a belly dancer around midnight but not an Egyptian one. There are other discos, but unless your daughters are older teenagers I would not recommend them. The shops tend to be tourist shops only and I don’t think any of you will find them interesting for more than half a day. Wherever you go you will be pestered by people trying to get you to buy something. Learn to say la shukrun, very firmly, it means no thank you. But they will be very persistent especially with teenage daughters. Do go out on a felucca in the late afternoon its cooler on the water and most of the boats will put up a sunshade. Its great fun. Go out to different restaurants and hotels for evening meals, find a taxi driver you feel comfortable with and then you don’t have to keep bargaining for the price. Always agree prices and bargain. taker a walk down the corniche at night. Try one of the out of town coffee shops like Thebes or habib. But do take insect cream. You will get bitten. If you e mail me I can answer any more questions you have. I have been going to luxor for almost 10 years now with teenagers/ children. The youngest is now almost 18.
