Mooie excursie met punten voor verbetering
We did the 2-day trip from Marsa Alam to Luxor. It is definitely worth going there. The driver picked us up on time, but during the journey we held our breath at times because of the speed. It’s good to know that the route Goggle maps shows, is not the one you are taking. The trip goes via Port Safaga due to bad condition of the shorter road. Our guide was a friendly and helpful man. We did find it difficult to understand his English well because of the accent. We enjoyed the beautiful sights, which are very impressive. And we were surprised that we were hardly bothered by salespeople. On both days the tours end around lunchtime. My husband and I got very sick from the lunch at the local restaurant, which is included in the trip. We had already left the salad and only eaten the rice and Köfte, but we should have had lunch at the hotel in Luxor. The Steigenberger hotel was okay (a bit of faded glory), the room was located at the front of the street. There is honking there all day and night. We wanted a quieter room, first they told us we had to pay extra, but finally they gave us a room on the 5th floor and that made a big difference. We were very pleased with a different driver on the second day. He drove carefully and brought us back to Marsa Alam safely. So there are certain things you need to take into account, but despite the 43 degrees we still had a trip that we would not have wanted to miss.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear that, despite the challenges, you still enjoyed the 2-day trip to Luxor and found the sights impressive and worth visiting. We sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered – especially regarding the driving speed on the first day and the unfortunate experience with the lunch. Your comments about the hotel and the guide's English are also noted and will help us improve. We’re happy the second day went more smoothly and that you felt safe with the new driver. Your suggestions and observations are very valuable to us, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to share them. We hope to welcome you again under better conditions in the future! Best regards, Rana Samy

Enterprise repeat but not excursion
The journey takes too long from Marsa Alam to Luxor, it ends up being 5 hours outbound and 5 return to be 6-7 hours in Luxor. He came to us to find a van from another company without warning, so it generated insecurity at the time of collection (we trusted because they had all our data and those of the reservation). Visits to the monuments are very quick and barely gives time to enjoy it. The guide, Nour, is nice, explains very well and is fluent in Spanish, but I missed a little thread between the different monuments we were visiting (what was happening in Egypt at that time? Why did they expand what was built instead of making new temples/tombs?...). They give you all the water you need to survive above 40oC without any problem and buy more if you finish the one they carry. On the other hand, they sneak you a visit to an artisan alabaster factory (without asking if it's okay or not) where they explain how they do it with a little show, so you see yourself in the commitment to spend money there... And it's not cheap. This also wastes 1 hour of visiting other spectacular monuments (or spending more time on those visited). Besides having to put up with all the grocers selling souvenirs, which are irritatingly heavy. These last 2 points made me put in a bad mood, which you do not want while on vacation. So: - Would you make the 1 day Marsa Alam to Luxor excursion again? No. Very tired, does not give time to enjoy everything and you have to argue so that you do not get scammed. Would you hire Marsa Alam tours again? Probably did, because everything went well. Yes, leave all the conditions of the excursion well clarified (what it includes and what it doesn’t) because our guide was not clear and we had to check it with my emails and with the Enterprise.
Response from the operator: Muchas gracias por compartir tu experiencia con tanto detalle. Lamentamos sinceramente que el ritmo de la excursión y algunos aspectos organizativos no hayan cumplido del todo con tus expectativas. Entendemos perfectamente lo cansado que puede resultar un viaje tan largo en un solo día desde Marsa Alam a Luxor, y agradecemos tus comentarios, ya que nos ayudan a mejorar. Nos alegra saber que la guía Nour fue clara y agradable, aunque tomamos nota de tu sugerencia sobre dar más contexto histórico durante las visitas. También lamentamos que la parada en la fábrica de alabastro se sintiera impuesta; trabajaremos para que esas visitas opcionales se comuniquen con mayor claridad. Agradecemos tu confianza en Marsa Alam Tours y esperamos tener la oportunidad de ofrecerte una experiencia más relajada y personalizada en el futuro. ¡Gracias nuevamente por tu sinceridad y por ayudarnos a crecer! Saludos cordiales, Rana Samy

Great trip
The Valley of the Kings was impressive. With the ticket that is included you can visit 3 tombs. We bought tickets for 2 additional tombs on site. Tutankhamun and Ramses 5/6. Those were particularly beautiful. The Dutch speaking guide was good. There were 2 people added while it was a private trip but that was fine. We skipped the brick factory and enjoyed an afternoon at the hotel pool, on the Nile. That was delicious. The next morning up early again for the balloon ride. Highly recommended. Then breakfast on the Nile and to the temples of Karnak and Luxor. Then a Felucca trip on the Nile, lunch and back to Marsa Alam. This way it was doable, with wonderful experiences. We enjoyed it very much.
Response from the operator: Hartelijk dank voor je geweldige review. We zijn zo blij om te horen dat je de Vallei der Koningen indrukwekkend vond en dat je het bezoek aan de tombes van Toetanchamon en Ramses V/VI bijzonder mooi vond. Het is fijn dat je genoten hebt van de ervaring met onze Nederlandstalige gids en dat alles naar wens was, ondanks de extra gasten bij de privéreis. Het is ook goed om te horen dat je hebt genoten van de middag bij het zwembad aan de Nijl en de ballonvaart de volgende ochtend. De ballonvaart is inderdaad een aanrader en we zijn blij dat je deze bijzondere ervaring hebt meegemaakt. De rest van de tour, inclusief de tempels van Karnak en Luxor, de felucca-vaart en de lunch aan de Nijl, klinkt als een perfecte manier om de dag af te sluiten. We zijn blij dat je van de reis hebt genoten en hopen je in de toekomst weer te mogen verwelkomen voor nieuwe avonturen. Met vriendelijke groet, Rana

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Overnight Trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Marsa Alam.
How much does Overnight Trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam cost?
+
Prices start at $110 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 Overnight Trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam 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 Overnight Trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 13 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 Overnight Trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam?
+
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 Overnight Trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 2. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 48-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Overnight Trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam?
+
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 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 Overnight Trip to Luxor from Marsa Alam 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.
