Tour of Luxor
Samar Nagi was a great tour guide and helped us tour Luxor with great backstories. She was patient and answered any questions we had.

Friends Trip Turned Into a Nile Brotherhood
I went with three friends and we booked the cheapest cabins but still got great service from Egypt tours gateway. One afternoon Omar taught us how to say a few words in Arabic and the locals smiled when we tried them at the bazaar. The ship had a decent WiFi only in the lobby but that forced us to talk to each other more. Admission fee was reasonable compared to booking everything separately. Length of visit gave us two full days in Luxor before sailing. Atmosphere changed from lively during temple tours to calm on the river. Crowd size at Edfu was terrible but Omar got us to the front of the line. Staff remembered our drink orders by day two. Best for friend groups who want a mix of history and hanging out.

Great tour guide Nervien
Nervien was very patient and gave us excellent recommendations of the must-visit tombs in Valley of the Kings. She brought us to a beautiful alabascar factory afterwards which was a beautiful way to end the trip.

Luxor to Aswan 5 Day Nile Cruise with Temple Tours: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Luxor to Aswan 5 Day Nile Cruise with Temple Tours cost?
+
Prices start at $450 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 Aswan 5 Day Nile Cruise with Temple Tours take?
+
Plan for about 120 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 Aswan 5 Day Nile Cruise with Temple Tours worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 14 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 to Aswan 5 Day Nile Cruise with Temple Tours?
+
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 to Aswan 5 Day Nile Cruise with Temple Tours suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Luxor to Aswan 5 Day Nile Cruise with Temple Tours?
+
Around 5 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 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Luxor to Aswan 5 Day Nile Cruise with Temple Tours 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.
