    The best quality of agency in the world

    Egypt Direct!!! The best Agency that I have known in the world. As a South american turist it was great to meet Ahmed from Egypt Direct, we needed a customized trip and Ahmed did it. At the Beagining I was little a bit insecure visiting a country where Arabic is the main language and almost no English, the best thing was to hire this agency that accompanied us throughout the trip, they took care of us, they helped us buy and negotiate in Egypt, every day Ahmed called us to see if we were okay and if we needed anything. The Quality of service is really fantastic !!! Jennifer Gacitua

    Response from the operator: Many thanks for your comment

    Excellent customer service

    Excellent experience since the first interaction. With Egypt Direct we felt that not only a service was offered, Ahmed and his team really cared that we had the best experience possible and treated me and my friend almost as family. I quoted with 15 different agencies and Egypt Direct offered the best cost-benefit. They actually exceeded our expectations. I wouldn't recommend that anyone arrives without an agency to support, you will for sure spend more and enjoy less. If you chose Egypt Direct I'm sure you won't regret, on the contrary. Give you this opportunity of being well received and well treated with high quality accomodation and tours.

    Response from the operator: Many thanks for your time to write your experience with Egypt Direct Tours

    Perfect Nile Cruise with the best Guide

    We had great two weeks in Egypt, but this tour was the absolute highlight!! We would definitely recommend this to our friends and family, as it really brings all the best things about Egypt together in one tour. All this positive feedback and we haven't even started to talk about our guide Khaled - a superstar! This guy was first and foremost a great person! So knowledgeable, so funny...so caring. He taught us many great things and always made sure we're happy. Our highlight was him giving us an exact play-by-play on how to negotiate with the salesmen at the shops. If you are thinking of what activity to go for in Egypt, book this tour and ask specifically for Khaled if you're English or Arabic speaking.

    Response from the operator: Dear Sir Thanks for your time to write your experience with Egypt Direct Tours and we hope to see you again

    Cruze, food and atractions

    Cruze, food and atractions are great! The staff from the cruze were incredible and very attentive. Make sure you get offered all the options to enter the temples(ex. To take pictures inside you have to pay for an extra ticket, to enter Tutakamon tumb you have to pay extra in the valley of the kings, etc.) and i missed a lot because i was not offered the option.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for leaving us a 5-star rating! We truly appreciate your support. If there’s anything specific you enjoyed about your experience or if there’s anything we can do to make your next visit even better, we’d love to hear from you. Your feedback helps us continue to improve! Thanks again, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon!

    Jewel of the Nile Luxor-Aswan-Abu Simbel 5 days with tour guided & sightseeing: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Jewel of the Nile Luxor-Aswan-Abu Simbel 5 days with tour guided & sightseeing cost?

    +

    Prices start at $520 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 Jewel of the Nile Luxor-Aswan-Abu Simbel 5 days with tour guided & sightseeing take?

    +

    Plan for about 120 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 Jewel of the Nile Luxor-Aswan-Abu Simbel 5 days with tour guided & sightseeing 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 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Jewel of the Nile Luxor-Aswan-Abu Simbel 5 days with tour guided & sightseeing?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Jewel of the Nile Luxor-Aswan-Abu Simbel 5 days with tour guided & sightseeing suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Jewel of the Nile Luxor-Aswan-Abu Simbel 5 days with tour guided & sightseeing?

    +

    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 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Jewel of the Nile Luxor-Aswan-Abu Simbel 5 days with tour guided & sightseeing 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 Jewel of the Nile Luxor-Aswan-Abu Simbel 5 days with tour guided & sightseeing?

    +

    Included: Sightseeing as per itinerary; Motor boat & Hantour; 4 nights Nile cruise from Luxor/Aswan; Lunch; and Available Pick-up from Luxor Airport and drop off to Aswan Airport.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Jewel of the Nile Luxor-Aswan-Abu Simbel 5 days with tour guided & sightseeing?
