Great two day tour
Yasser was a great guide and very knowledgeable. It was very helpful when we’d ask him to walk with us through the temples because he would see additional things to tell us about. Our driver, Hammoud, was lovely as well. I highly recommend having a guide to tour Luxor, it was very helpful and better than touring alone.

Excellent guide for exploring Luxor
I spent two days exploring Luxor with Hassan as my guide. On the East Bank, he took me to Karnak Temple, the Avenue of Sphinxes, and Luxor Temple. On the West Bank, we visited the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, and the Colossi of Memnon. Hassan was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about Egyptian history. He gave us detailed explanations not only at each archaeological site but also during the drives between locations. Thanks to his guidance, I didn't have to worry about transportation, entrance procedures, or other practical matters, so I could enjoy the sightseeing in a relaxed, comfortable, and fulfilling way. As is common with tours in Egypt, there were also stops at some souvenir shops along the way. However, there was absolutely no pressure or obligation to buy anything, and I could simply use these stops as convenient places to take a break. Overall, Hassan made my two days in Luxor much easier and more enjoyable. I highly recommend him to anyone visiting Luxor who wants to learn about Egyptian history while exploring the ancient sites comfortably.
Response from the operator: Dear guest, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for choosing us for your two days in Luxor. I'm delighted that you enjoyed both the East Bank and West Bank, from Karnak and Luxor Temple to the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, and the Colossi of Memnon. I'll share your kind words with Hassan. He loves Egyptian history, and it means a lot to him that his explanations, even during the drives, made your visit more enjoyable and stress-free. Thank you also for your honest comment about the shop stops. We never want our guests to feel any pressure, and I'm glad they were a comfortable place to rest. We would be happy to welcome you back to Egypt, and to Luxor, whenever you return. Safe travels! Warm regards, Warm regards, Team Luxor Travels 📱 WhatsApp: +201224689271

Private 2 Days The Best of Luxor: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Private 2 Days The Best of Luxor cost?
+
Prices start at $150 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 Private 2 Days The Best of Luxor 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 Private 2 Days The Best of Luxor worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 89 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 98 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private 2 Days The Best of Luxor?
+
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 Private 2 Days The Best of Luxor 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 Private 2 Days The Best of Luxor?
+
Around 34 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 Private 2 Days The Best of Luxor 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 Tour to West bank, Private Half Day Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, 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.
