Hot but comfortable
We had an amazing experience. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and very patient with our questions. They made sure we were hydrated and had rest in between stops. Car was very comfortable and the driver was thoughtful in the heat.

Luxor ☀️
The best guide I've had on my entire trip to Egypt! After a very disappointing first experience in Cairo with another company and guide, I really saw the difference. This guide is simply exceptional Ahmed awad I want the same guide for each excursion if possible he is incredibly patient, always listening, very kind and extremely professional. He takes the time to explain, adapts and makes me discover beautiful activities with passion. Thanks to him, my stay became too good I recommend it with my eyes closed 100%. Thanks again for everything Ahmed Awad Guide Luxor! And the company Al Hassany travel 🇪🇬 Shukran gamil

Enjoyable East Bank Tour
We had a great time on the East Bank tour visiting Karnak Temple and Luxor Temple with Amera Salem. The tour was well organized and everything went smoothly. Our guide was punctual, friendly, and very knowledgeable, and she explained the history in a clear and interesting way while answering all of our questions. We were travelling with our little daughter, so we really appreciated the patience and flexibility throughout the tour. She was understanding when we needed to slow down or adjust things and always tried to help make the visit easier for us. Karnak and Luxor Temple were both impressive, and having a guide made the experience much more meaningful. Overall, it was a very enjoyable tour and a great way to explore Luxor’s East Bank.

Best guided tour we’ve ever had!!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Omg everyone we had an amazing experience! We made a very last minute booking (literally just hours before our pickup) and they were incredibly prompt, responsive, and efficient from the moment I send the first message. They provided us with lots of helpful information and were extremely accommodating to our last minute request. The manager even came to meet us personally in our hotel lobby to bring us our tickets. Our guide and driver then picked us up from the hotel right on time. The car was comfortable, clean, and, most importantly, the A/C worked great which was VERY appreciated! Our tour guide, Mohammed El Bash, was absolutely wonderful! He was professional, kind, personable, and so incredibly knowledgeable. My husband and I learned SOOOO much about the temples, ancient Egyptian history, and all of the fascinating stories and details surrounding the sites we visited on the East Bank. Mohammed explained everything in a way that was interesting and easy to understand and we felt completely comfortable with him throughout the entire tour. Our driver, Mousa, was also amazing! He was very kind, professional, and even opened car doors for us. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I definitely recommend this tour experience and if you’re booking a tour, I highly recommend requesting Mohammed El Bash as your guide and Mousa as your driver. Promise, you won’t regret it!

Family time in Egypt
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a fantastic Luxor East Bank Tour, and it exceeded all our expectations. Visiting the magnificent Karnak and Luxor Temples was an unforgettable experience, made even better by our guide, Mohamed, and our driver, Moses. Mohamed was incredibly friendly, patient, and full of knowledge. He explained the history of each site in an engaging and easy-to-understand way, answered every question we had, and made sure everyone in our family enjoyed the tour at a comfortable pace. Moses was always smiling, professional, and made the journey smooth and relaxing. What really stood out was how accommodating they both were. On our way back, they happily stopped to help us shop for souvenirs and even took us to a local food market where we could buy authentic products at the best local prices. It made the experience feel much more personal and gave us a chance to see a different side of Luxor. One tip: leave early! Starting the tour in the morning helped us avoid the crowds and the heat, making the whole experience much more enjoyable. Mohamed and Moses make an incredible team, and I highly recommend them to anyone visiting Luxor—especially families. Their kindness, local knowledge, and willingness to go the extra mile made this one of the highlights of our trip.

Why this scores 96
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
East Bank Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does East Bank Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $10 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 East Bank Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 East Bank Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 96 out of 100, which we label "Peak Performance". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 203 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule East Bank 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 East Bank Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book East Bank Tour?
+
Around 71 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does East Bank 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.

Not included: Tipping (Not obligatory); Any extra not mentioned in the itinerary; and All Fees and Taxes. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does East Bank Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 63 listed pickup locations in and around Luxor. Be ready about 2 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is East Bank Tour offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
