Wonderful experience

It was excellent! I came from Caïro and verything was well planned. The guide Hany Yassen and the driver Hussein are amazing people. The guide gives excellent info about everything, try to help you with your needs. The second day was with other people but the guide could divide his attention. It's highly recommended.

Response from the operator: Thank you so much, you're a champ :)

Egypt in great way

, we did this trip me and my wife with Egypt best holidays, some tours in Cairo then aswan and Abu simble, also luxor, the programs went like what is wretten befor to us nothing is changing at all, is very comfortable air-conditioning cars, tour guides are very kind, in luxor especially we had the best times in our life, the tour guide Mr khaled El saady, makes our times full by knowledgeable and fun, the balloon ride, in the early morning don't miss it, is magic, we recommend all this tours honestly,

Response from the operator: Dear Valued Guest, “Thank-you for taking the time to leave a review. It was a lot of fun. you were a champ! It was a pleasure showing you around.” Stay Safe :)

perfect for those who don’t need to sleep, have limited time and want to show off on their social media

Good Staffs are friendly and are always on time Tour guides’ English is communicable and they reply to messages quickly during the daytime; After seeing the tour guide upgrade the 4-star hotel to a 5-star in Luxor free of charge for someone else, we also got it after I bargained with Peter for some while. Go to famous spots as shown in the itinerary Poor A health-damaging itinerary which will largely shorten your life: depart from the hotel at 3am to catch the flight; after landing, directly go to the next spot without rest. Arrive at the hotel at 12:00 am on the last day The breakfast in Giza is poor: only one small piece of cheese, a quarter of a tomato, a fried egg, and pitas. Drivers’ English is not communicable Will take you to tourist-oriented shopping centres which are not listed in the itinerary: painting shop, perfume shop… and repeatedly promote their add-on activities which are indeed several times more expensive than other travel agencies (e.g. balloons are $150 from them, but can be $30 in other local agencies). Be cautious, on the third day: you will have 10 hours on the way and 1.5 hours for sightseeing. They tried to force us to give them a 5-star good comment on the last day, and it took me a long time of explanations to avoid doing so. To conclude, this trip is perfect for those who don’t need to sleep, have limited time and want to show off on their social media.

Response from the operator: Wong review for wrong business , this tour doesn't include any Giza Hotel , it only 2 day tour for Abu simbel and Luxor by flight , Kind Regards

What a great guide

Tata is a great tourist guide, he picked up from the train station right of where I stepped out. He sent me to the hotel and picked me up again next morning exactly the time we agreed. He showed me all the major attractions such as Kings Valley and other temples. His explanation is clear and right to the essence. He is a nice guy with great patience. Will book him again

Cairo: Private 2-Day Abu Simbel and Luxor with Entrance Fees & 5 *Hotel by Plane: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Cairo: Private 2-Day Abu Simbel and Luxor with Entrance Fees & 5 *Hotel by Plane cost?

+

Prices start at $750 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cairo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Cairo: Private 2-Day Abu Simbel and Luxor with Entrance Fees & 5 *Hotel by Plane 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 Cairo is not rushed.

Is Cairo: Private 2-Day Abu Simbel and Luxor with Entrance Fees & 5 *Hotel by Plane worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cairo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Cairo: Private 2-Day Abu Simbel and Luxor with Entrance Fees & 5 *Hotel by Plane?

+

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 Cairo: Private 2-Day Abu Simbel and Luxor with Entrance Fees & 5 *Hotel by Plane suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 2. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 48-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Cairo: Private 2-Day Abu Simbel and Luxor with Entrance Fees & 5 *Hotel by Plane?

+

Around 5 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 Cairo 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 Cairo and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Cairo: Private 2-Day Abu Simbel and Luxor with Entrance Fees & 5 *Hotel by Plane 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 Cairo 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 Cairo?

+

On Outty we rank every Cairo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include All-in-One Giza Tour, inside Pyramid, sphinx, Camel ride & lunch, VIP Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx Tour –Inside the Pyramids&More, Best of Cairo Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and Grand Museum Tour. 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 Cairo?

+

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 Cairo?

+

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.
