Luxor guided tour
The car that turned up was not like the photo when we booked. It was old and in a state of disrepair with no air conditioning and the temperature was in the mid 40’s we did not do the tour and asked to be taken to the airport which was part of our booking.The driver still wanted a tip to drive us there. When we got there the military would not let us into the airport until 3 hrs before the flight. We sat outside with no air conditioning for 8 hrs. A total disaster.The country is beautiful but some of the people and weird rules are not very good

Luxor private shopping tour
The private shopping tour in Luxor was an enjoyable experience full of local charm. We explored traditional markets and specialty shops offering handmade souvenirs — from pharaonic artifacts to perfumes and natural oils. We enjoyed friendly bargaining with the vendors and discovering unique items that reflect the city’s heritage. The tour was comfortable and well-organized, with the driver and guide helping us choose the best places. A great experience for anyone looking to buy special gifts from the heart of Luxor.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind review. We truly appreciate your trust and your choice to book with us. It was our pleasure serving you

Why this scores 60
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Exploring Workshops and Markets in Luxor(Private Tour): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Exploring Workshops and Markets in Luxor(Private Tour) cost?
+
Prices start at $15 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 Exploring Workshops and Markets in Luxor(Private 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 Exploring Workshops and Markets in Luxor(Private Tour) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 2 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 Exploring Workshops and Markets in Luxor(Private 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 Exploring Workshops and Markets in Luxor(Private 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 Exploring Workshops and Markets in Luxor(Private Tour)?
+
Around 1 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 Exploring Workshops and Markets in Luxor(Private 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 Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, Full Day Tour to East and West Banks of Luxor (Private), Private Half day Tour to West bank. 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.
