Incredible trip, the tombs were magnificent
A wonderful trip to the West Bank. The Valley of the Kings blew us away and Shimaa our guide helped us to choose impressive tombs to visit. I recommend Ramesses VI, the cheapest extra ticket but the paintings and colours were incredible! We also visited Hatshepsut temple and the Collossi of Memnom. Shimaa was excellent with so much knowledge. Could probably do without the stone workshop/souvenir shop but others may appreciate it. No hassle though. Great service door to door. Highly recommended.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful experience with Eyes of Egypt - Luxor! We are thrilled to hear that your trip to the West Bank exceeded your expectations and that the Valley of the Kings left such a powerful impression on you. We’re especially pleased that Shimaa was able to enhance your visit with her extensive knowledge and expert guidance. Your recommendation of Ramesses VI tomb is spot-on - the preserved colors and paintings there are truly breathtaking and offer visitors an authentic glimpse into ancient Egyptian artistry. Your feedback regarding the stone workshop/souvenir shop is much appreciated. While some guests enjoy the opportunity to see local craftsmanship and purchase authentic souvenirs, we understand this isn’t everyone’s preference. We’re constantly evaluating all aspects of our tours to ensure they provide maximum value for our diverse clientele. We’re delighted that you found our door-to-door service convenient and that your overall experience with us was worthy of a high recommendation. It’s guests like you who help other travelers discover the magnificent treasures of Luxor. We hope to welcome you back to Egypt in the future. Perhaps next time we can show you other hidden gems of our beautiful country!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hidden Luxor VIP: Hatshepsut & Valley of the Kings: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Hidden Luxor VIP: Hatshepsut & Valley of the Kings cost?
+
Prices start at $39 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 Hidden Luxor VIP: Hatshepsut & Valley of the Kings take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Hidden Luxor VIP: Hatshepsut & Valley of the Kings worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 12 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 Hidden Luxor VIP: Hatshepsut & Valley of the Kings?
+
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 Hidden Luxor VIP: Hatshepsut & Valley of the Kings suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hidden Luxor VIP: Hatshepsut & Valley of the Kings?
+
Around 4 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hidden Luxor VIP: Hatshepsut & Valley of the Kings 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.
