Luxor - A Once in a Lifetime Excursion
We have always been happy with our Viator trips, byt the visit to the Valley of the Kings and Karnak Temple was breathtaking and awing. Our guide Ahmed Azusa was knowlegeble and professional. He took us to a lovely Egyptian restaurant for lunch where we sat under a canopy of trees and ate delightful Egyptian cuisine as we looked at the rural landscape beyong. The drive to and from the ship was long about 3 hours each way, but it gave us a chance to admire the landscapes along the way.
Response from the operator: We're thrilled to hear that your journey to the Valley of the Kings and Karnak Temple with Ahmed Azusa was breathtaking; your appreciation for the detailed tour and delightful Egyptian cuisine underlines the unique experiences we strive to offer. Although the drive was long, we're glad it offered you a chance to admire Egypt's captivating landscapes.

Very good guide and we had a fantastic day
Anxious about the long drive from the port to the sights but we had a full day and weren't rushed when visiting temples and sights. We got along with our guide George Edwards and he explained everything very well. Lunch was good and in a local restaurant. The drive although long was comfortable. All in all a fantastic day.
Response from the operator: We're delighted to hear that your day was fantastic and comfortable, with George Edwards ensuring an informative and unrushed experience; your satisfaction is our joy.

Unreal tour with a fabulous 5 star company and guide
George (sp) was incredible bringing to life this ancient history. So easy to understand and showed us things a broader group could never experience. Ashman, the owner, treated us to an incredible lunch, and our driver Aman was extremely accommodating. There is no better way to experience Luxor than this group, choose no other.
Response from the operator: Thrilled to hear George, Ashman, and Aman provided an incredible and unique Luxor experience; your high recommendation is truly appreciated.

Simply the Best
Absolutely the best. Great helpful friendly English speaking guide, competent driver, interesting Egyptologist, wifi available in the spacious car, all for the 4 of us. Valley of the Kings and the Temple was fantastic and lunch was special. Would strongly recommend this trip, 10 times more special than the cruise bus tour and it returned an hour earlier as a small group can move quicker and has more flexibility. Great to learn about Egypt today enroute.
Response from the operator: We're overjoyed to hear your tour was absolutely the best, with every detail enhancing your experience; your strong recommendation is greatly valued.

Best tour of our holiday
We were picked up at the ship at the arranged time by our driver and his co-driver (they drive from Luxor to pick you up and return home to Luxor after returning you to the ship in Safaga so co-driver essential). Driver was excellent and the co-driver spoke good enough English to tell us about places we passed through. We were provided with water on the journey and the lunch on the felucca was home cooked and delicious. There were many dishes and more than enough food. Our tour guide Iman was extremely knowledgeable and informative. He also listened to what we wanted to do as we had visited Luxor before. Even when we revisited places Iman found things to show us that we had not seen before. His explanations were fascinating and made ancient cultures come to life. Our driver Abdullah (totally excellent), Ash the organiser, Iman the guide and all the other members of the team we met made us feel really welcome, at ease and by the end of a very long day they felt like friends. All promises made were met and the tour was well worth the money. We intend on returning to Egypt after the new Cairo museum opens and we will be contacting Ash to potentially organise the whole trip. This was the best tour we did during our 3+ week cruise!
Response from the operator: Dear guest, Thrilled to hear you enjoyed our tour! Excellent drivers, a delicious home-cooked lunch, and the expertise of guide Iman – we're delighted you had a fantastic experience. It warms our hearts that our team made you feel welcome and that the tour exceeded your expectations. We look forward to organizing your future trip after the new Cairo museum opens. Thank you for choosing Luxor Private Tours! Best, Luxor Private Tour Team

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Luxor Day Tour From Safaga Port: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Safaga.
How much does Luxor Day Tour From Safaga Port cost?
+
Prices start at $110 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Safaga 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 Safaga Port take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 Safaga is not rushed.
Is Luxor Day Tour From Safaga Port worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 30 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Safaga, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Luxor Day Tour From Safaga Port?
+
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 Safaga Port suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 10-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Luxor Day Tour From Safaga Port?
+
Around 11 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 Safaga 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 Safaga and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Luxor Day Tour From Safaga Port 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 Safaga 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 Safaga?
+
On Outty we rank every Safaga experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Horse Riding & Camel Beach,Desert, Swim,Sunrise & Sunset-Hurghada, Dolphin House Full Day Snorkeling Cruise With Lunch – Hurghada, Full day trip to Luxor with littel Group & Tutankhamun Tomb. 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 Safaga?
+
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 Safaga?
+
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.
