In one of Las Vegas' most amazing motion simulators, “Luxor’s In Search of the Obelisk” has riders following an expedition crew in its race against the evil Dr. Osiris for the coveted crystal obelisk. The ride begins in the elevator as a snapped cable leaves you plunging into the depths of an excavation. A series of twists and turns ensue as the battle over the obelisk continues, including a high-speed chase through the mysterious caverns in the archeological dig site. The ride involves participants in the chase, using television monitors to explain the procedures and everything that is going on throughout the excavation site. The ride is a little long for a motion simulator but every minute is action-packed and full of excitement.
