Amazing Trip – Highly Recommended!
This was an amazing trip! The drivers were professional, and there were two of them—one for the journey to Luxor and another for the return trip. They drove safely, without any reckless speeding, which made the journey comfortable. Our tour guide was very professional, and all the stops were well worth the visit. He quickly sensed that our group preferred a more concise version of the historical explanations, so he provided short yet informative stories. Of course, if anyone had questions, he was more than happy to answer them! We also stopped for lunch, which was included in the price—only the drinks needed to be paid for separately (50 EGP for tea and 150 EGP for a Coke). If you want to visit the tomb of Tutankhamun, you can! However, it requires an additional ticket costing 700 EGP. We decided to skip it, so I can’t say whether it’s worth it or not. After the first stop, we were also given the option to take a boat trip to a small area with a zoo-like setup on the other side of the water. The cost was €15 per person, and the trip was said to take about an hour. Since we weren’t interested in the zoo, we didn’t do it, but it might be a fun option for others. Overall, the trip was very well organized, and we had a great experience. Thank you!

Drop the trip to the creul zoo and shop and make it a 5 star trip.
Trip was very good, however a couple of things should be clarified before booking as left a bit of a sour taste. The sites themselves were excellent to see. The guide was great. Knew his stuff, and gave plenty of time with him and to look about on our own without him while also making sure people were aware of time so we made had plenty at all the monuments. Van was comfortable with 8 people, AC good and van fully loaded with water for everyone. This includes stopping to get more when needed. Food was buffet style with options and not bad. Not great by any means but plenty and better than expected The negatives and things to think about before booking Firstly, the "alabaster factory" is a compulsory stop at a shop where they are pretty forceful in making you try to buy or leave tips. It's clearly somewhere they are either being paid to take you or get a cut. Total waste of time and we needed up just sitting in the van for half a hour. It takes longer to get there and back than advertised. A lot a messing about with checkpoints in the morning, it seems like you can't get on the road until 6am due to this so a bit of sitting about before you even leave Hurghada. Managed to get everything done in time, but coming from El Gouna we left at 03:45 and didn't get back until 20:30. Wasn't an issue for us but worth noting. Rather than stop for a break somewhere decent or cheap they take you to a place that is a total rip of (8£ for 2 crisps and drinks). Again, clearly making some money of this as there are alternatives. The Nile Cruise itself was nice, but it's not 50 minutes. They take you to a zoo on an island with a monkey on a chain, a doped up Crocodile and a ostrich in a tiny cage for photos. Animal cruelty and pretty sad to see. Would rather have driven round in the van and skipper this than give them money if I knew it was like this. You can choose not to do the tour and zoo if you want. With all the above said I would recommend the trip, but not the Nile cruise/zoo. The positives out weigh the negatives however the negatives need to be called out to allow people to make an informed decision.

Great trip
Great trip, highly recommended to see the ancient sights of Egypt. All well organised and very helpful support from the organiser, answering all questions. Do add the trip on the river Nile on the way, limited extra charge but very nice experience to be on the river which is so important.

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hurghada to Luxor day trip by private car entry fees are icluded: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.
How much does Hurghada to Luxor day trip by private car entry fees are icluded cost?
+
Prices start at $253 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hurghada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hurghada to Luxor day trip by private car entry fees are icluded take?
+
Plan for about 16 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 Hurghada is not rushed.
Is Hurghada to Luxor day trip by private car entry fees are icluded worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hurghada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hurghada to Luxor day trip by private car entry fees are icluded?
+
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 Hurghada to Luxor day trip by private car entry fees are icluded suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 16-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hurghada to Luxor day trip by private car entry fees are icluded?
+
Around 5 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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada and add a light layer if any part of the 16-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hurghada to Luxor day trip by private car entry fees are icluded 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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada?
+
On Outty we rank every Hurghada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hurghada Diving Adventure one Day with two Dives Boat Trip, Hurghada to Cairo: Pyramids & Museum for First-Time Visitors, Scuba Diving Full Day Boat Trip W/Lunch & Transfer from Hurghada. 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 Hurghada?
+
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 Hurghada?
+
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.
