I recommend it.
It's not a 100, it's a 90. I can't give 100 points because there was a part where I thought 'what kind of', but I am satisfied. If your friends or relatives were going to Luxor, I would recommend this tour. They are well-mannered and hard at work, and they care about a lot of things, and they know the Japanese very well. It's definitely worth the money. I told him to tell the clerk that I was going to a routine restaurant for lunch, but the beer I ordered was lukewarm room temperature, and that if I was going to serve it to the Japanese, it had to be cold. I hope it has been improved for everyone who follows.
Response from the operator: Dear our valued customer First of all, allow me to thank you for your time and consideration. we are more than proud and happy to hear that you have enjoyed every aspect of your tour and we will continue working hard to maintain the same level of progress. our biggest inspiration is your satisfaction. we are looking forward to welcoming you again in the near future to try more of our tours. Sincerely, I Like Egypt Tours

Muhammad's guide, the president, is excellent!
Muhammad's guide, who learned Japanese from the Japanese, was the best. He can joke, he cares about things, and I think half of him might be Japanese. They answered anything I didn't mention in the guidebook carefully when I asked them what they were interested in, and they also took me to a souvenir shop, but if I told them properly that I didn't want them, they also told the staff properly, which was a satisfying & safe private tour. He is Muhammad, in the back, in the red hat.
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. We appreciate your time and efforts in providing feedback to us. Best regards, I Like Egypt Tours

Amazing trip
The guid was very kind. He has a lot of knowledge and information about old Egypt. And he can speak Japanese well. I really enjoyed my first trip to Luxor!!

If you want to enjoy Egypt safely and securely,
They say Japan is a dangerous country. But you want to be in Egypt before you die, right? If you want to have fun, I highly recommend Muhammad! Muhammad was a Japanese teacher in Egypt and lived in Japan, so he knows about Japan and its customs. Women are particularly problematic in the "toilet" surprisingly, which is quite important when traveling abroad, right? I've researched it at key points, so it's very reassuring. But I think the most important thing is, "Describe the ruins" here is pretty important. The cheapest ones are "English guides," but for example, "I couldn't understand the history class in Japanese, ... am I the only one?" If it becomes English, won't the thinking circuits be broken? What’s more, it’s still enough to attend a class by the famous Japanese professor of Egyptian archaeology, Sakuji Yoshimura, but I think it’s amazing to study even more. I'm from Luxor, I have many friends, and the local information is perfect! Trouble, want to know, listen jang jang d(^_^o), tell me gently anything. If you're in Egypt 🇪🇬, Mohammad's guide is for you!! By the way, during the tour of the ruins, I met a Japanese person living abroad who said, "I should have made him a Japanese guide, 😩" and that Muhammad was good. The explanation is in familiar Japanese!! Yes 😉

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Day Tour to Luxor from Cairo by Plane: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Private Day Tour to Luxor from Cairo by Plane cost?
+
Prices start at $502 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 Luxor from Cairo by Plane take?
+
Plan for about 12 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 Luxor from Cairo by Plane worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 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 Day Tour to Luxor from Cairo by Plane?
+
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 Day Tour to Luxor from Cairo by Plane suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Day Tour to Luxor from Cairo by Plane?
+
Around 2 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 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Day Tour to Luxor from Cairo by Plane 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.
