Great visit to Karnak and Luxor temple

Growing Ancient Egyptian Knowledge
Aladdin is very familiar with the history of each attraction, with a visit to the King Valley + all the temples explained in detail. Explain my questions about many ancient Egyptian history. Among them is a relaxing and enjoyable day trip to meet all my requirements. Especially appreciate the Egyptian lunch arranged on the day, very very good taste.

Aladdin - a genie full of knowledge of Luxor!
Aladdin was a wonderful tour guide with a real focus and passion on Egypt and the many secrets held within its history. We really learnt a lot about Luxor, ancient Egypt and helped put the history and context together! Professional, friendly and very knowledgeable

Wonderful guide and driver, unfortunately unfriendly company & customer service
We had 3 great days of tours with Amro (our guide) and Sayyed (driver). Sayyed drove very well, we felt very safe the entire time, and was very friendly. The car was clean, new and comfortable. Amro was a great guide. His English was excellent and he was very knowledgeable. We was very accommodating of all of our questions, our desire to see each site in depth, and gave us ample time at each site to take photos and explore on our own. He had great suggestions of what we could not miss in Luxor (since there is so much to see there) and recommendations for where to each & shop as well. He is based in Aswan, so if you're in Egypt and can request him, we would recommend him very highly! Note: unfortunately, we had a negative experience with Deluxe Travels as a company overall. We loved Amro and Sayyed in Luxor, but overall we felt Deluxe provided poor service. If you are not VERY CLEAR about each thing you want to see on your trip in advance, when you arrive, they will start to add new charges for everything. Having this happen while you are travelling is both inconvenient and frustrating, and you feel like you are being taken advantage of. Their customer service was rude, argumentative, and hassled us.

Luxor East Bank Private Tour Karnak Luxor temples: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Luxor East Bank Private Tour Karnak Luxor temples cost?
+
Prices start at $45 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 East Bank Private Tour Karnak Luxor temples take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 East Bank Private Tour Karnak Luxor temples worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 7 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 East Bank Private Tour Karnak Luxor 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 East Bank Private Tour Karnak Luxor temples suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Luxor East Bank Private Tour Karnak Luxor temples?
+
Around 2 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Luxor East Bank Private Tour Karnak Luxor 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 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.
