    Ancient Egypt brought to life

    Mark Samir was our guide and Amar Atito our driver for a 2 day private trip to luxor. Amar picked us up from our hotel at the arranged time and welcomed us to a clean and modern air-conditioned car. Although Amar's english was limited we had some great chats via google translate on our journey. He explained when we had to stop for the tourist police safety checkpoint and pointed out interesting things on the way. We had a comfort break at a service station half way to luxor. We felt Amar cared about or safety and comfort the whole trip. At Karlak temple we were met by our guide, Mark, an Egyptologist, was very knowledgeable and friendly. Entrance to the Temple and to every place we visited was seamless and unhassled. From the outset Mark didn't stop explaining and telling stories about ancient Egypt and is very passionate about his subject. There was one hiccup whereby there was some kind of miscommunication between the booking agent and tour company. Because we are both mobility impaired with various health conditions, the trip was to be conducted over 2 days not 1 and Mark had been booked to show us all of luxor's sites both Eat and West bank in one day. Upon seeing my distress at hearing this Mark became very concerned and went off to talk to his boss and rearranged his schedule to accommodate our needs. He couldn't do enough for us throughout the trip, making sure we were comfortable, hydrated and happy. Amar was always waiting in a convenient place for us with the car so we were able to leave our possessions in complete safety and didn't have to carry everything around. The hotel we stayed in was more than adequate, clean and comfy right on the banks of the River Nile with a Nile view from our window. The second day was just as lovely despite the hit air balloon trip being cancelled due to high winds, a shame but these things do happen. Mark and Amar looked after us very well I would recommend them both. I would also say that although you may be tired early morning or on the journey home take a while to chat with your driver and you'll learn many things on the journey. If I can add any criticism it would be to suggest that when someone books a private tour the schedule should be more relaxed and fluid as the reason for booking a private tour as opposed to a coach tour is flexibility. For example both days we still stopped for lunch at large buffet style restaurants full of coach party tours and feel it would've been better to stop at smaller local restaurants and have the opportunity to taste local dishes rather than bland Luke warm 'western' food, which felt rushed and cattle market like. All in all we had an amazing time and 8 year old me fulfilled the dreams of seeing ancient Egypt come to live through Marks words and stories.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your gracious feedback. It was truly an honor to have the opportunity to support you on your journey. Your satisfaction is our utmost priority, and we are always here to help in any way we can. We will be delighted to welcome you back again soon

    Unforgettable tour at a really fair price!:)

    Even if the price seems high at first (we felt that way anyway) we can say in retrospect that it was worth every euro. With the guides Mustafa and Hamdi, as well as our driver Mooda, we were given an unforgettable experience. From A to Z everything was well organized and we felt very well looked after. With a lot of expertise on history and the city, we got to know Egypt, but also the city of Luxor. We had enough opportunities for free space or short-term adjustments in the process. Of course the balloon ride was the highlight, but everything around it was interesting and worth seeing. The hotel for the night, with us the Hotel Lotus, was perfectly fine, right on the Nile, with pool and a magnificent view of the west bank of the Nile. It was actually a private tour, just us as a couple and that of course opened up many possibilities for individual design. The tour guides and our driver were always on time and concerned for our welfare. All descriptions in the tour offer were also fulfilled. 100% recommendation from us and a huge thank you for this experience. The ballooning experience report is done separately...

    Luxury Overnight Luxor from Marsa Alam with Hot Air Balloon: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Luxury Overnight Luxor from Marsa Alam with Hot Air Balloon cost?

    +

    Prices start at $380 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Marsa Alam usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Luxury Overnight Luxor from Marsa Alam with Hot Air Balloon 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 Marsa Alam is not rushed.

    Is Luxury Overnight Luxor from Marsa Alam with Hot Air Balloon worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Marsa Alam, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Luxury Overnight Luxor from Marsa Alam with Hot Air Balloon?

    +

    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 Luxury Overnight Luxor from Marsa Alam with Hot Air Balloon 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 Luxury Overnight Luxor from Marsa Alam with Hot Air Balloon?

    +

    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 Marsa Alam 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 Marsa Alam and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Luxury Overnight Luxor from Marsa Alam with Hot Air Balloon 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 Marsa Alam 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 Marsa Alam?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Marsa Alam experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Luxor Day Trip from Marsa alam (Private), Private Day Trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam and Valley of the Kings, Over Day Tour From Marsa Alam to Luxor. 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 Marsa Alam?

    +

    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 Marsa Alam?

    +

    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.
