Unforgettable Luxor Day Trip: Ask for Rana Samy!
If you are staying in the Marsa Alam area and want to see the wonders of Luxor without the stress, I cannot recommend Marsa Alam Tours enough—specifically Rana Samy. We started our journey from Port Ghalib, and from the very beginning, everything was seamless. Rana was incredibly organized, professional, and made sure every detail of the trip was handled perfectly.

Naama is an exceptional guide
Naama is a wonderful guide. Her English is perfect and she is very knowledgeable about Egyptian history and culture. I was travelling alone as a solo female traveller, and found her to be warm, helpful, reliable and friendly. Her communication the day before the tour was excellent - clear and concise with some great tips - and very much appreciated. She took some great photos for me, looked after my bag when I went into the tombs, thoughtfully found shade when she stopped to explain things and patiently answered all my questions. She took me to a very nice restaurant for lunch and we have a nice chat. I highly recommend her!
Response from the operator: Dear ronaa, Thank you so much for your great review and feedback after your amazing Luxor Day Tour From Luxor . We are so happy that you had a great experience with us. We look forward to seeing you again next year with us for more great experiences Best regards Rana

Overall, an amazing experience
My guide, Monsoor, was excellent. He was very personable and extremely knowledgeable. I would recommend him highly. The sites were fantastic, the food was excellent, and the flights were great although we finished the tour around 1500 hrs. and there were no earlier flights than the one at 20:45 hours. My suggestion would be to perhaps encourage folks to stay the night at Luxor, rest in the afternoon, and go out for a good dinner at night with a flight out the following morning. My tip would be to negotiate all payments upfront. As an American I don't believe that my duty is to tip to make up for low pay nor provide "charity"; a tip is for exceptional service. I say this because I used Google to determine the tip. My Arabic is poor, but it was clear from the conversation in the car that the driver especially was not happy with his tip. Also, you need to be aware that there will be a driver; I thought just the guide so this means you will need to pay two tips. The other issue was the "add ons". They were fine for the most part, but I would suggest discussing all of the "add ons" up front, paying everything up front, and then you won't have to worry about it the rest of the trip; in short, amazing trip but the constant up selling got old.
Response from the operator: Dear I9158UMbrucek, we would like to thank you for your amazing review. we are very happy you have enjoyed your Trip to Egypt with us Your review helps us much to understand How was the service provided.

Marsa Alam Tours - our heroes
Marsa Alam Tours is the best! They saved our vacation at the last moment. Thank you for the promptitude, dedication that helped us to have beautiful moments! We contacted the agency only one night before our trip to Luxor as a last effort to save our day. They responded immediately and helped us when we thought nothing else could be done and at a very good price for a private tour to Luxor! Our guide to Luxor - Mansor - is a walking encyclopedia of Ancient Egypt! You can see his passion and love for Egypt that was easily transmitted to us while explaining every little corner of Karnak Temple, Hatshepshut Temple and Valley of the Kings! It is hard to say which one we enjoyed most! Thank you very much, Mansor! Thank you very much, Marsa Alam!
Response from the operator: Dear oanamartipana, Thank you very much for booking your Private trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam with Marsa Alam Tours. we are very happy you have enjoyed your trip with Mansour Our Guide in Luxor. we are very Proud of every word you wrote about our company.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Luxor Day Tour From Luxor: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Luxor Day Tour From Luxor cost?
+
Prices start at $102 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 Luxor Day Tour From Luxor 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 Luxor Day Tour From Luxor worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 20 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 Luxor Day Tour From Luxor?
+
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 Luxor Day Tour From Luxor 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 Luxor Day Tour From Luxor?
+
Around 7 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 Luxor Day Tour From Luxor 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 Luxor Day Tour From Luxor?
+
Included: All transfers in an air-conditioned car; Lunch at a restaurant in Luxor; An informative Egyptologist; and Guide. Not included: Drinks in the restaurant; and Any costs not mentioned in the program. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 58 listed pickup locations in and around Luxor. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Luxor Day Tour From Luxor offered in?
+
It is offered in German, Arabic, English, Italian, French, Spanish and Dutch. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
