    2. Temple of Hatshepsut

      Temple of Hatshepsut, one of the most breathtaking architectural wonders of ancient Egypt. Nestled beneath towering cliffs in Deir el-Bahri, this mortuary temple honors one of Egypt’s greatest pharaohs, Queen Hatshepsut. The temple's unique design and the queen's fascinating story of her rise to power make for an intriguing exploration. Marvel at the temple's grandeur, its terraced structure leading up to the sanctuary itself, and the exquisite reliefs that depict the queen's divine birth and trading expeditions to the Land of Punt.

    4. Luxor Temple

      A short drive brings you to the Luxor Temple, an exquisite example of Pharaonic architecture that was once connected to Karnak by an avenue of sphinxes. This temple was a shrine of the rejuvenation of kingship; it might have been where many of the pharaohs of Egypt were crowned.

    One tour to change a trip from perfect to Amazing.

    Best tour I took in Egypt. Our guide Jaquline was very personable, she tailored our tour to our stay. She recommended great local hotel, activities, and restuarants. jaquline presented ancient Egypt for us as if we are living right in the middle of it. She was able to carry our imagination to see Ancient Egypt and its treasures a real life. She was able to take us into locations not commonly visited by tourists, these places are what made this trip from perfect to AMAZING. locations such as valley of the Nobles and others we were able to experience tombs in their original form, unchanged, literally just like in the movies. Highly recommend.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I’m thrilled to hear that your time in Luxor was so amazing. It sounds like you had a fantastic adventure from start to finish, and I'm glad everything went smoothly with the transfers and the tour. Nariman sounds like a wonderful guide, and I’m excited to hear you had such a positive experience with her. Thanks again for the recommendation

    BEST EXPERIENCE WITH AVICON

    Book!!!! This is a great tour company!!!! The tour guide is extremely pleasant, kind, patient, and knowledgeable!! I would not have been able to explore the sights in Luxor without the tour guide. She knew so much about where to take my family and I, was very kind and had a positive energy. It really made such an amazing trip and experience. I’ve had trips with other tour guides and companies before, but AVICON I would choose over & over again!! My experience wasn’t like other boring trips I did. The trip really is based off of which company you choose and it can make or break the experience. Im so glad I chose her because my family and I truly enjoyed our time. The price is also extremely fair and I genuinely feel this tour company is underrated and deserves to be acknowledged. Egypt is a beautiful place & it takes someone who’s lived there & has a beautiful passion and love for her work to show others a good time. Exploring history & fun sites, taking pictures - it was overall the best experience & I couldn’t recommend Avicon enough!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I’m thrilled to hear that your time in Luxor was so amazing.

    Cairo to Luxor back to Cairo long day totally worth it!

    Luxor was so amazing. We flew out from Cairo in the early morning and was picked up at the airport by the tour. Explored all over Luxor, which was so impressive, then brought back to the airport to fly back to Cairo. Long day totally worth it. Nariman was also a great guide 🤞 you get her too.

    Full Day in Luxor Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Full Day in Luxor Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $178 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 Full Day in Luxor Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 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 Full Day in Luxor Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 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 Full Day in 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 Full Day in Luxor Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full Day in Luxor Tour?

    +

    Around 2 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full Day in 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 Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, Full Day Tour to East and West Banks of Luxor (Private), 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.

    What is included in Full Day in Luxor Tour?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; Bottled water; Lunch; All Fees and Taxes; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Any activities not specified in the tour itinerary; and Tips. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Full Day in Luxor Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Luxor. Be ready about 60 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is Full Day in Luxor 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.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Full Day in Luxor Tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Full Day in Luxor Tour if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Luxor. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.

    What do travelers say about Full Day in Luxor Tour?

    +

    Across 5 reviews averaging 5.0 out of 5, recurring themes include the guide, knowledge and storytelling, photo opportunities. Travelers single out the guide as the reason the experience works.
