    Sights worth seeing!

    Khaled is an experienced guide and gave us a good tour of the Valley of the Kings, Hatchepsut and Deir el-Medina. The car was very clean and spacious and the driver was courteous. Things worth knowing: 1. The main attraction in the Valley of the Queens - The Tomb of Queen Nerertari - is closed at present. 2. You need to purchase additional tickets to visit the tomb of Tutankamun (well worth it!) and the tombs of Ramses V & VI

    Luxor sightseeing

    Roshdy was a great tour guide. He and Mohammed our driver met us at the airport, took the time to find us breakfast because we had had an early morning flight and provided us with waters. They were very punctual, friendly and we never felt rushed. Roshdy is very knowledgeable and professional. Mohammed was a very safe driver, polite, opened the doors for us. Our lunch was delicious. I would highly recommend Roshdy as a tour guide and Mohammed as a driver:)

    Exciting to walk in the...

    Exciting to walk in the footsteps of the Pharaohs. Stunning details surround you, lots of information from every stop. You go for the Valley of the Kings, but the more unknown stops were as/more impressive and less crowded.

    Khaled was a fantastic...

    Khaled was a fantastic guide! He really knows Egyptian history and explained everything in a very interesting and easy-to-understand way. His explanation of hieroglyphics was especially great. We visited the Valley of the Kings and many other attractions, including the Valley of the Workers, which was definitely a hidden gem. We would highly recommend adding it to the itinerary — it was one of our favorite parts of the tour. We also visited an alabaster workshop, which was a really nice experience. There was absolutely no pressure to buy anything. They welcomed us with a complimentary drink, and we even got to try making a vase ourselves. As we were on our honeymoon, Khaled went the extra mile and surprised us with a very cute wedding gift — an alabaster plaque with our wedding date on it. It was such a thoughtful gesture and made the experience even more special. Thank you, Khaled, for making our trip so memorable! We would definitely recommend him to anyone visiting Luxor. 10/10! 😊

    Luxor Day Tour: Valley of Kings & Queens & Hatchepsut Temples: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Luxor Day Tour: Valley of Kings & Queens & Hatchepsut Temples cost?

    +

    Prices start at $51 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: Valley of Kings & Queens & Hatchepsut Temples take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 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: Valley of Kings & Queens & Hatchepsut Temples worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 89 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 1,740 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Luxor Day Tour: Valley of Kings & Queens & Hatchepsut Temples?

    +

    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: Valley of Kings & Queens & Hatchepsut Temples suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Luxor Day Tour: Valley of Kings & Queens & Hatchepsut Temples?

    +

    Around 609 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Luxor Day Tour: Valley of Kings & Queens & Hatchepsut Temples 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.

    What is included in Luxor Day Tour: Valley of Kings & Queens & Hatchepsut Temples?

    +

    Is Luxor Day Tour: Valley of Kings & Queens & Hatchepsut Temples wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
