    Day trip to the valley of the kings!

    Luxor tour from Hurghada with Sharm Wonders… I can’t wait to come back and see more with you! We booked the private Hurghada to Luxor tour, when I saw the pick up time I was dreading it (4am)... However, the quality of the vehicle and the driver quickly started to make my fears and apprehension dissolve. Upon our arrival we met our tour guide, Mido. Mido is so knowledgeable and friendly we had an amazing time. From the onset Mido was friendly and approachable- no question was a stupid question and he had the answers at his fingertips. I wanted to buy some gifts for family and friends and Mido and the driver fitted in the time during the tour to do this. The buffet lunch on the banks of the Nile was good too- lovely baklava! I can’t recommend this tour enough- despite not experiencing the other guides I can highly recommend asking for Mido as I couldn’t fault him! Definitely pay the extra for the Tomb of the Golden Boy King (Tutankhamun)! Outstanding value compared to other agencies prices for same tour (£80 cheaper for both of us and a personal guide) I would recommend Sharm Wonders and would use them again when visiting Egypt

    Full Day Luxor East and West Banks Sightseeings with Lunch: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Full Day Luxor East and West Banks Sightseeings with Lunch cost?

    +

    Prices start at £40 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 Luxor East and West Banks Sightseeings with Lunch take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 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 Luxor East and West Banks Sightseeings with Lunch worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 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 Luxor East and West Banks Sightseeings with Lunch?

    +

    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 Luxor East and West Banks Sightseeings with Lunch suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full Day Luxor East and West Banks Sightseeings with Lunch?

    +

    Around 0 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full Day Luxor East and West Banks Sightseeings with Lunch 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.
