    Very nice tour:)

    You get picked up and be driven to different attractions and then there’s a guide waiting for you there for each attractions. We had 1-1.5 hours at each attraction. It’s worth it to be starting so early, you avoid the crowds. It didn’t feel rush but we would appreciate having more time. Our driver Arafat was nice, didn’t talk much English, didn’t talk much with us, which was what we preferred. But gave us snacks sometimes. The car was very nice, everything went smoothly. Guides are of different qualities, some talks fast, some funny, some very passionate. But none of them expected tips from us. The lunch was all Egyptian food, taste good:)

    This was a fabulous tour with...

    <p>This was a fabulous tour with Mohammed. He was friendly, knowledgeable and I felt like I was being well looked after the whole time. I was travelling on my own with not much time so this tour was an excellent option to see many of the major temples Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Philae plus go all the way to Abu Simbel. It's a long way but so worth it. The drive along the Nile in the early morning was beautiful and the drivers on both days were superb. The Aswan Dam and its history and significance to Egypt were fascinating and Mohammed was able to answer my questions without trouble. We caught the train from Aswan back to Luxor which gave us a break from driving and gave me a chance to see a little bit of local life. Pick ups, drop offs, hotel and meals all went like clockwork. I would definitely recommend this tour.</p>

    Luxor to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Luxor to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $389 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 to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 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 to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Luxor to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour?

    +

    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 Luxor to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Luxor to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour?

    +

    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 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Luxor to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour 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 to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour?

    +

    Included: Entrance fees to all the mentioned sites; All taxes & service charge; Lunch; Bottled water during the tour; and Lunch at a high quality local restaurant. Not included: Any extras not mentioned in the itinerary; Hotel accommodation in Aswan; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Luxor to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 1 listed pickup location in and around Luxor. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Luxor to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Arabic, German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Luxor to Abu Simbel 2 Days Private Tour?
