    Excellent Luxor tour with Omar Sharif, very knowledgeable guide

    On our tour it was just myself and my friend, which made the experience feel relaxed and personalised. We travelled from Hurghada to Luxor by bus, and Omar met us on arrival. We shared our WhatsApp location which made meeting easy, and our driver’s car was parked nearby ready to go. Omar is clearly very experienced and well connected around the tourist areas in Luxor. He was communicative throughout, including before the trip via WhatsApp, and he sent videos in advance which helped set expectations. He also initiated a video call before we travelled to introduce himself, which was reassuring. He appears in the photos on TripAdvisor, so you will be able to recognise and confirm it is him. His guiding style was clear and easy to follow. Like other experienced guides, he uses tools such as a laser pointer at the temples to highlight details, and he explains the history of the pharaohs, kings and tombs. He also uses visual aids and will write things out in a notebook to explain timelines across different periods, which we found particularly helpful. His recall and breadth of knowledge are impressive, and his 30 years of experience really show. His demeanour is calm, clear and well suited to guiding. The main attractions themselves, including Karnak Temple and the Valley of the Kings, are absolutely magnificent and fully live up to expectations, though they are understandably very busy. Transport was comfortable with air conditioning, and the driving felt safe throughout. Omar had all tickets arranged as part of the headline price, which made things straightforward. He also clearly explained any optional extras and was flexible with payments, accepting euros, dollars and pounds, and calculating everything transparently. I never enquired fully about the exact pricing before we started, so you may want to do this so you have enough notes with you, otherwise you will be frequently withdrawing cash from an ATM as card payments are rare. There are stops at places like alabaster craft makers and perfume shops. There is no obligation to buy Around the temples and markets with merchants offering goods, and Omar was helpful in navigating these and helping us know what represented value. Tipping culture is part of the experience in Egypt, so it is worth budgeting for this. Overall, this has been a well organised and enjoyable trip with a very knowledgeable guide. As long as you go in with clear expectations, it is a great way to experience Luxor and the Nile.

Omar welcomed us at the airport and planned all our visits smoothly and efficiently. He took us to many amazing places and explained everything with great knowledge and passion. Omar is a great representative of Luxor’s culture and hospitality. His service is well-organized, reliable, and offered at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend Omar to anyone visiting Luxor.

    2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.

    How much does 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $69 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Luxor usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Luxor is not rushed.

    Is 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Luxor can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Luxor and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Luxor within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Luxor?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Luxor experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Half Day Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, Full Day Tour to East and West Banks of Luxor (Private), Full Day Tour of Luxor private. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Luxor?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Luxor?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour?

    +

    Included: Professional Egyptologist guide ( if selected); All applicable service charges and taxes; 2 days of guided sightseeing; Private air-conditioned transportation; and Bottled water. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 176 listed pickup locations in and around Luxor. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour offered in?

    +

    It is offered in German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour?

    Is 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to 2-Day Private Luxor East and West Bank Tour if the weather is bad?

    +
