    Good experience

    Mohsen was a good guide. He was knowledgeable and understood the many things about Egyptian history. Highly recommend him, he knows the quick way in and out and the best places to take pictures. His driver Mohammed was also helpful.

    Nelly the best tour guide. Excellent tour

    What a great tour, it was worth seeing. Valley of the Kings is an experience you will never forget, and the Temples is like a movie set you just can believe your eyes. We had an amazing tour guide Nelly and she was very insightful, knowledgeable and enthusiastic, we learnt so much about the sights and learn to read hieroglyphics and write of ages using this method. Great 2 half days. Thank you

    Horrible company, excellent tour guide!

    My tour guide, Refaie, was great. He was knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and professional. I would definitely recommend him. Unfortunately, the company was not. They were supposed to pick me up at 7am and I confirmed everything the night before. In the morning, they went completely silent despite several texts and calls. A driver finally showed up around 8am with no explanation. I asked for some kind of courtesy or compensation for the delay to see how they would handle it. Instead, they asked me to pay an extra $100, which was honestly shocking. Very disappointing experience with the company.

    Nice tour and professional guide. Recommended.

    We really enjoyed our tour. It’s a lot to see so if you can, do it in two days rather than one so you enjoy it more. Our guide’s name was Abdul and he was professional and succinct telling us interesting bits without going into too much detail. He also shared useful things about Egypt itself and gave us some tips about shopping. We have had 4 different guides in the last week and he was the best of the lot. The tours don’t last the whole day. After the main bit is finished they let you roam around yourself and take pictures and explore. So it’s a nice mix. Our group was slower than most so the first day took 4 hours and the second more like 5. I would advise to visit Luxor temple before Karnak because Karnak is very impressive and Luxor pales in comparison. Also if you can, avoid buying coffee or drinks from inside the temples as the price is 5x what you’d expect. We did visit an Alabaster shop at the end and the prices were very steep but you can knock 80% off them and they become manageable. The quality does look to be great and they’d make for wonderful presents. We didn’t have to visit nor did I feel pressured into buying so I didn’t mind. Finally we did a hot air balloon in the morning of day 2. It was the highlight of Luxor for me. You can organise separately to keep the price lower or do it with Embrace. And you start your tour right after.

    2-Day Tour: Karnak & Luxor Temples Valley of the Kings Hatshepsut Temple &Memnon: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does 2-Day Tour: Karnak & Luxor Temples Valley of the Kings Hatshepsut Temple &Memnon cost?

    +

    Prices start at $115 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 Tour: Karnak & Luxor Temples Valley of the Kings Hatshepsut Temple &Memnon 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 Tour: Karnak & Luxor Temples Valley of the Kings Hatshepsut Temple &Memnon worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 79 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 Tour: Karnak & Luxor Temples Valley of the Kings Hatshepsut Temple &Memnon?

    +

    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 Tour: Karnak & Luxor Temples Valley of the Kings Hatshepsut Temple &Memnon 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 Tour: Karnak & Luxor Temples Valley of the Kings Hatshepsut Temple &Memnon?

    +

    Around 28 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 Tour: Karnak & Luxor Temples Valley of the Kings Hatshepsut Temple &Memnon 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 Tour to West bank, Private Half Day Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, 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.
