Best Tourguide and drivers ever!!
Best Tourguide and drivers ever!! It started early and the gentlemen who picked us up were friendly. Driving they were very alert and safe. Our tourguide Hani had a lot of knowledge and could not convey other stories like that. He made jokes in between and put us very much at ease. You really feel a bond after such a journey. Thank you very much Hani for the tour and the fun!
Response from the operator: Hartelijk dank voor je geweldige review en feedback na je geweldige privé dagtocht naar Luxor met een Egyptoloog (Hamam). Heel erg bedankt voor deze mooie beoordeling! We zijn ontzettend blij te horen dat je zo’n geweldige ervaring hebt gehad met zowel de chauffeurs als onze gids Hani. Het is geweldig dat zij ervoor hebben gezorgd dat je je comfortabel en veilig voelde tijdens de reis. We zijn ook blij dat Hani’s uitgebreide kennis en humor de tour zo aangenaam hebben gemaakt. Het opbouwen van een persoonlijke band tijdens de tour is iets wat wij echt waarderen, en we zijn blij dat je die connectie met Hani hebt ervaren. Nogmaals bedankt voor je vriendelijke woorden, en we zullen je dankbaarheid zeker doorgeven aan Hani en het team. We kijken ernaar uit je in de toekomst weer te verwelkomen voor een andere tour. Met vriendelijke groet, Rana

Great experience in Luxor
via corendon in the hotel, we took a private tour to Luxor with a Dutch speaking guide. We had an incredible experience. The Dutch speaking guide Hany Selim has all the knowledge to make this day truly magical. We were picked up at the hotel by a driver accompanied by Hany who immediately started telling. First to a kind of control place where it is said that we had to drive in convoy through the desert. A couple of dozen wagons of vans and coaches were waiting to leave, so when the signal was given, everyone drove off at their own pace unaccompanied. After a drive of about 4 hours where Hany was always talking about history we arrived in Luxor. First to "Karnak temple". Once there we were first in the temples thanks to the driver which was very nice second stop "Medinet Habu temple again first. Then we did a little cruise on the Nile. The longest river in the world but also the dirtiest "sorry Hany". Also the dangerous sacred crocodiles were 200km upstream Third party stop "Valley of the kings where we visited three graves. Thank Hany for your knowledge, We enjoyed the day
Response from the operator: Hartelijk dank voor je geweldige beoordeling en feedback na je geweldige privé dagtrip naar Luxor met een Egyptoloog (Hamam). Hartelijk dank voor je mooie en gedetailleerde review! We zijn ontzettend blij te horen dat jullie een geweldige ervaring hebben gehad tijdens de privétour naar Luxor met onze gids Hany Selim. Hany is inderdaad een echte expert, en het is fijn om te horen dat zijn kennis de dag voor jullie magisch heeft gemaakt. Ook leuk dat jullie de tempels en de Valley of the Kings in alle rust hebben kunnen verkennen, dankzij de vroege start. Wat betreft de Nijl, inderdaad, hoewel het de langste rivier ter wereld is, moeten we helaas toegeven dat het milieu daar verbetering nodig heeft. Desondanks zijn we blij dat jullie de ervaring hebben kunnen waarderen! Nogmaals bedankt voor je feedback, we hopen jullie in de toekomst weer te mogen verwelkomen voor een nieuwe avontuurlijke ervaring. Met vriendelijke groet, Rana

Loxor at 44° C
Did not book in advance via tripadvisor.We went to Egypt via Corendon , they work , in Hurghada , together with "Flash Tour" , who arranged everything the first day in our hotel .Ok , was not private , but we did have a Dutch-speaking guide for a group of 11 people and this for less than half the prices , which I found on this site . But Luxor is definitely recommended.
Response from the operator: Beste, Bedankt voor uw review en uw boeking met Excursiesegypte.nl Met vriendelijke groeten Ahmed Khalil

Super day!
A private trip with two drivers to Luxor. There was our Dutch speaking guide ready, he was alone for our family that day and he gave us an unforgettable day. He explained everything well, took his time, gave tips and advice.

A private day trip to luxor with an Egyptologist (Hamam): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.
How much does A private day trip to luxor with an Egyptologist (Hamam) cost?
+
Prices start at $217 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hurghada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does A private day trip to luxor with an Egyptologist (Hamam) take?
+
Plan for about 14 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 Hurghada is not rushed.
Is A private day trip to luxor with an Egyptologist (Hamam) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hurghada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule A private day trip to luxor with an Egyptologist (Hamam)?
+
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 A private day trip to luxor with an Egyptologist (Hamam) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 14-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book A private day trip to luxor with an Egyptologist (Hamam)?
+
Around 3 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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada and add a light layer if any part of the 14-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does A private day trip to luxor with an Egyptologist (Hamam) 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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada?
+
On Outty we rank every Hurghada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hurghada Diving Adventure one Day with two Dives Boat Trip, Hurghada to Cairo: Pyramids & Museum for First-Time Visitors, Hurghada Scuba Diving Full Day Boat Trip With Lunch & Transfer. 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 Hurghada?
+
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 Hurghada?
+
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 A private day trip to luxor with an Egyptologist (Hamam)?
+

Does A private day trip to luxor with an Egyptologist (Hamam) include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 120 listed pickup locations in and around Hurghada. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
