To conclude the trip, we stop at the base of the magnificent Colossi of Memnon, two immense statues guarding the ongoing excavation of the palace of Amenophis III.

Because of an earthquake in 27BC, one of the statues was damaged and due to forces of nature, was said to "whistle" or "sing" at dawn.

Private West bank full day tour
Organised through the fantastic Aracan Eataby hotel where we stayed, who tailored a day in the West Bank to the places we wanted to see which included the wonderful Habu temple. Our guide Ramez was very knowledgeable giving us information before allowing us to wander and take photos ourselves at each place. Transport was good, always ready to ferry us from place to place with the day starting at 10am and finishing at 4.30pm door to door. Tour price did not include tickets for Valley of Kings, Hatshupset and Habu temples and whilst not cheap for our family of 4 as a private group, I'd consider it worth the money for overall a great experience.
Response from the operator: Dear Valued guest, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're absolutely delighted to hear about your fantastic day on the West Bank, tailored just for you through the Aracan Eatabe Hotel—including the stunning Medinet Habu Temple. It's heartwarming to know that Ramez's knowledgeable guidance, along with the seamless transport and flexible pacing, made for such a memorable experience for your family of four. We truly appreciate your feedback on the value, even with the site tickets separate—it motivates us to keep delivering top-notch, personalized adventures in Luxor. We're truly grateful for your booking with EgBride and thrilled that we could be part of your journey. We hope to have the pleasure of assisting you again in the near future—whether for more tailored tours or recommendations for friends and family. Safe travels, and until next time! 😊

Amazing tour with Ramez our guide
We had a wonderful time with our guide Ramez. He's incredibly knowledgeable regarding the history of Luxor and all its monuments.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Amazing Luxor: Valley of the Kings – Hatshepsut Temple – Colossi of Memnon: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Amazing Luxor: Valley of the Kings – Hatshepsut Temple – Colossi of Memnon cost?
+
Prices start at $45 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 Amazing Luxor: Valley of the Kings – Hatshepsut Temple – Colossi of Memnon take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Amazing Luxor: Valley of the Kings – Hatshepsut Temple – Colossi of Memnon worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 31 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Amazing Luxor: Valley of the Kings – Hatshepsut Temple – Colossi of Memnon?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Amazing Luxor: Valley of the Kings – Hatshepsut Temple – Colossi of Memnon suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Amazing Luxor: Valley of the Kings – Hatshepsut Temple – Colossi of Memnon?
+
Around 11 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Amazing Luxor: Valley of the Kings – Hatshepsut Temple – Colossi of 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.
