    Best tour guide ever

    Hazem Hassan was amazing . So knowledgeable and friendly . The tour made me want to change my flight to stay one more day as I was only one day in Luxor to fly to Cairo. The flight was late and Hazem took us to a market and stayed with us pretty late until it was almost time to go to airport . It was much appreciated . Will definitely recommend this tour to friends and family and tell them to make sure to travel to Luxor . I've been on many tours but Hazem was very personable and accommodating . Thank you so much Hazem .

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your nice words and for taking the time to write us a review. It gives us pleasure to know that you have enjoyed your time with us. We always keen to offer our guests the best service and all our tour guides are Professional Egyptology guides who work hard to meet our guests satisfaction.

    Private Day Tour to East and West Banks in Luxor: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private Day Tour to East and West Banks in Luxor cost?

    +

    Prices start at $56 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 Day Tour to East and West Banks in Luxor take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 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 Day Tour to East and West Banks in Luxor worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Day Tour to East and West Banks in 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 Day Tour to East and West Banks in Luxor suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Day Tour to East and West Banks in Luxor?

    +

    Around 0 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Day Tour to East and West Banks in 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.

    What is included in Private Day Tour to East and West Banks in Luxor?

    +

    Included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; Bottled water; Lunch; and Qualified Egyptologist guide. Not included: Gratuities; and Entrance fees. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Private Day Tour to East and West Banks in Luxor include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 7 listed pickup locations in and around Luxor. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Private Day Tour to East and West Banks in Luxor offered in?

    +

    It is offered in German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Day Tour to East and West Banks in Luxor?

    +
