    It was okay.

    I didn't have a good experience. First because I booked the tour in Spanish and it turned out in the end that they didn’t have it, which was only in English. We found out hours before the tour. But ok we decided to go anyway. After being there, there was no time to enjoy the museums, because we were always in a hurry. The only place we lasted the longest was in the valley of kings. The food was okay.

    Response from the operator: Because we are committed to returning to Hurghada at a specific time, and these are instructions for all tourism companies. I hope you enjoyed yourselves with us.

    Spectacular Luxor!

    What an amazing day! Mustafa our guide was incredible and took us to all the sights when there were fewer people around. He told us the itinerary and any extras (Nile cruise and Tutankhamen tomb) both extras were well worth the little extra money. Lunch was included around 12pm, plenty of water given and comfortable minibus with AC. The journey was long but the sights were definitely worth it! Do not miss this day out!

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much for this wonderful review . such reviews make us more motivated to provide the best for our customers. We always strive to provide the best for our customers. We look forward to welcoming you for a new experience with Opet Tour

    Day Trip to Luxor from Hurghada: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Day Trip to Luxor from Hurghada cost?

    +

    Prices start at $65 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 Day Trip to Luxor from Hurghada take?

    +

    Plan for about 16 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 Day Trip to Luxor from Hurghada worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 14 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 Day Trip to Luxor from Hurghada?

    +

    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 Day Trip to Luxor from Hurghada suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 16-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Day Trip to Luxor from Hurghada?

    +

    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 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 16-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Day Trip to Luxor from Hurghada 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.
