    Excellent organization and customer service !

    I wanted a private tour of some of the many incredible attractions in Egypt that included the Pyramids of Giza, the Great Egyptian Museum, the Nile, Luxor and Aswan but had to little to go on other than the numerous advertisements and reviews so contacted a number of operators including Mo Luxury Tours. Mohammed (Mo Luxury Tours) went out of his way to both reassure me in respect to his business, his experience and his capabilities and even met up on line to walk me through his proposal. The attention to detail was excellent and every step of our journey was organized and with assistance, from our arrival in Cairo airport to the many transfers to and from sites. We had a first class guide (Egyptologist) Ahmad who was extremely knowledgeable and attentive to our needs, including finding ATM’s and medicine when my wife became ill. All in all, very, very pleased with Mo Luxury Tours, the first class accommodation (both in Cairo and on the Nile cruise) as well as all of the transfers and of course our private guide. The sites are exceptional in so many ways but be prepared for crowds. Well done and thank you to Mohammed and Ahmad in making our visit so memorable. The only thing I would suggest to anyone looking for this kind of visit is that if you can, avoid the Christmas period as it is exceptionally busy with all sorts of tourists (especially those that want to spend 10 mins taking selfies in front of tombs or monuments when there are literally thousands of people waiting, touch things that I would have hoped are so blatantly obviously not to touch and generally act in ways that rightfully give tourists a bad name). I would also advise to look at your schedule. We had far too much with too little down time which meant that with transfers and distances, we had several very (very) early departures and as such were very tired. In retrospect, I would have taken less visits and had at least a day just to chill on the boat and enjoy the calm of the Nile and the great weather. Last but not least, with tourism generating over $13B annually, the Egyptian government should start spending some of that money on cleaning up as sadly there is trash absolutely everywhere including the sites and the Nile and the toilets at many of the sites are just not commensurate with minimum expectations. Be prepared !

    An enjoyable and informative Nile Cruise

    Dear Mo, I want to express to you my many thanks for creating for us this fabulous trip to Egypt. We enjoyed every moment of our visit, from start to finish. Abdul our assigned Egyptologist was a perfect guide; he led us through history with lively presentations and discussions. His friendly personality, his love for history, his sense of humour made the tours and visits to the sights comfortable and most enjoyable. I personally feel very grateful to Abdul for making my visits to the sights as comfortable as possible. Due to a prior accident, I was experiencing mobility issues. Abdul gave me full support; he also made sure there was an available wheelchair at every sight we visited. Without his help and support I wouldn’t have been able to undertake any of the sight trips. Alex and Joanne join me in wishing you a happy, healthy and prosperous new year.

    8 day 7 night Luxury Egypt tour and the Nile

    This trip was awesome! We did the 8 day 7 night Luxury Egypt tour and the Nile. From the time we landed in Cairo, until we were dropped back off, it was VERY smooth. All of the airport representatives were on time, made us feel secure and guided us along the way. Our tour guide in Cairo was very nice and made adjustments to our tour as requested. When we got to Aswan, our tour guide stayed with use throughout the Nile Cruise and at each stop, was ready to explore the area with information at each location. I don't know HOW they can keep all of these facts straight!! All of the hotels were top notch and we enjoyed all of the amenities they had to offer. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour to anyone that was planning a trip to Egypt. It is a GREAT value and money well spent for everything that is included. Egypt was a place we've always wanted to visit and this tour gave us an opportunity to SEE IT ALL!!!

    +

    It ranks #7 of the 7 similar experiences we compared in Luxor, with an Outty Ranking of 63. At $1,250 it sits above the typical similar option ($20), so book it for what is included rather than price. Best for families and couples.

    Who is Private 5-Day Luxury Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Guide best for?

    +

    It suits families and couples best, based on its 120-hour length, all-ages access and non-refundable terms.

    Is Private 5-Day Luxury Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Guide good value?

    +

    It is a premium pick. It starts at $1,250, above the $20 typical for similar experiences in Luxor.

    How much does Private 5-Day Luxury Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Guide cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,250 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 5-Day Luxury Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Guide 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 Private 5-Day Luxury Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Guide worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 18 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private 5-Day Luxury Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Guide?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Private 5-Day Luxury Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Guide 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 Private 5-Day Luxury Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Guide?

    +

    Around 6 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 Private 5-Day Luxury Nile Cruise from Luxor to Aswan with Guide 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 of Luxor private, Full Day Tour to Luxor West bank. 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.
