Luxor

The tour was very good, we were always very well accompanied by the guide, in general the visit went very well. The only negative point was that they said we would go in a mini van and we ended up going on a bus.

Response from the operator: Dear our valued customer, Thank you for rating us Excellent. We are so pleased to hear that you spent a lovely time in our beloved country with us. Your safety, comfort, and satisfaction are very important to us more than anything else. We hope to see you again soon with a longer stay...there are a lot of amazing things to discover around Egypt, and we will be waiting to show you the treasures of our country.

One package From Hurghada to Luxor: Balloon & Luxor Day Tour & Lunch & Felucca: questions travelers ask

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

How much does One package From Hurghada to Luxor: Balloon & Luxor Day Tour & Lunch & Felucca cost?

+

Prices start at $189 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cairo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does One package From Hurghada to Luxor: Balloon & Luxor Day Tour & Lunch & Felucca take?

+

Plan for about 17 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 Cairo is not rushed.

Is One package From Hurghada to Luxor: Balloon & Luxor Day Tour & Lunch & Felucca worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cairo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule One package From Hurghada to Luxor: Balloon & Luxor Day Tour & Lunch & Felucca?

+

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 One package From Hurghada to Luxor: Balloon & Luxor Day Tour & Lunch & Felucca suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 6. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 17-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book One package From Hurghada to Luxor: Balloon & Luxor Day Tour & Lunch & Felucca?

+

Around 3 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 Cairo 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 Cairo and add a light layer if any part of the 17-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does One package From Hurghada to Luxor: Balloon & Luxor Day Tour & Lunch & Felucca 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 Cairo 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 Cairo?

+

On Outty we rank every Cairo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include All-in-One Giza Tour, inside Pyramid, sphinx, Camel ride & lunch, VIP Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx Tour –Inside the Pyramids&More, Best of Cairo Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and Grand Museum Tour. 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 Cairo?

+

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 Cairo?

+

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.
