    Amazing few days in Luxor. Treated like a queen.

    It was like visiting family but being treated like a VIP, I felt so well looked after and very safe. As I was on crutches Ahmed adjusted the tour to suit my needs, and energy levels and taught me some helpful words in Arabic. His knowledge was fascinating and we had fun. Hassan our driver was also excellent and I booked him for my airport transfer. I really appreciated their honesty with what I probably could and could not (balloon ride) do on crutches. Added in was a papyrus making store one day which was fascinating and a gorgeous alabaster store. (Tea drinking and gentle price haggling was part of the experience). Karnack Temple there is a lot of walking so we hired a wheelchair for a small fee which was excellent. In Egypt service and tipping is like the US. Service is first class & tipping due to low wages is expected. Bring plenty of $1 USD notes (as very difficult to get small local notes) for toilets/luggage/hotel airport wheelchair staff and tip your tour guide and driver well. I used $50 over 5 days…but needed much help and when I had no cash they looked after me anyway. I am grateful that during the tour Ahmed handled all the tipping and negotiated for me to skip lines, get disabled parking and priority on the Valley of the Kings and Queens golf buggy transports. In the tombs the staff also looked after me like a VIP. Queen Hatchsut‘s tomb I would just look at from afar next time and if more energy would do other less famous but more colorful tombs in Valley of the Kings. For this trip the 3 I did were perfect as best access for disabled in wheelchair and crutches. The staff in the tombs kindly took photos for me with no expectation of a tip as I was disabled and ensured I was not jostled in the Congo line of tourists walking through.

    Response from the operator: It gaves us all the pleasure to serve you as our queen and our sister , so that you get the family but VIP service as always , we hope to meet you once again . Best regards and greetings

    Joo is the best!!

    My tour guide was Joo, and he did an absolutely phenomenal job showing me the highlights of Luxor. From start to finish, he made the entire experience unforgettable. His knowledge of the temples, history, and hidden gems was incredible, and he explained everything in a way that truly brought ancient Egypt to life. What I loved most was how patient he was he never rushed me and always gave me plenty of time to explore, take photos, and soak in the moment. Joo has a warm and friendly personality that makes you feel instantly comfortable. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does and takes pride in making sure his guests have the best experience possible. If you’re visiting Luxor and want someone who is passionate, professional, and truly goes above and beyond, Joo is the tour guide you need. Highly, highly recommend! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

    Response from the operator: It gaves us all the honour to choose us and meet you and serving was our pleasure , hope it was the best time et , hope to see you again

    Very good tour experience with Ahmed

    We are a group of 5 people. Once we landed in Luxor from Cairo, we were greeted by a guide and a driver whose names are both Ahmed. Both of them are polite and mature. Ahmed, the guide, is very knowledgeable and informative, always willing to go extra miles to explain everything to us. Overall, I was extremely satisfied with their professionalism, generosity, attitude, and positive energy. Thank you very much again

    Response from the operator: Welcome to your 2 nd home between your ppl. , it was happiness and pleasant time with you and we are looking forward to serving you as your family next time in Egypt

    Great time in Luxor

    Ahmed Haggag Ali is an excellent guide. An egyptologist who is very easy going and knowledgeable about the artifacts and history. He also makes great recommendations such as to see the Luxor Temple in the evening to see the sunset.

    Response from the operator: It was great honour to choose us and it gaves us all the pleasure to serve you , we wish to see you again in Egypt

    Best of Luxor 2 Day Private Guided Luxor Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Best of Luxor 2 Day Private Guided Luxor Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $44 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 Best of Luxor 2 Day Private Guided Luxor 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 Best of Luxor 2 Day Private Guided Luxor Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 24 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 Best of Luxor 2 Day Private Guided Luxor 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 Best of Luxor 2 Day Private Guided Luxor 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 Best of Luxor 2 Day Private Guided Luxor Tour?

    +

    Around 8 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 Best of Luxor 2 Day Private Guided Luxor 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 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.
