Awesome time in Luxor with guide Esther
Had a great time in Luxor with our guide Esther. We wanted to take it easy and did Luxor West Bank one day (Hot air balloon, Colossi of Memnon, Valley of the kings, Hatshepsut, Medinet Habu) and Luxor East bank (Karnak temple and Luxor temple) second day. Esther was punctual, knowledgeable and very patient. After doing East bank we wanted to try some local food and Esther took us to a gem of a restaurant with expansive view of Nile and awesome food. The tour dropped us off at Jolie Ville resort where we stayed for a night. We also wanted to take a Nile river boat ride and Esther arranged for it at very short notice and brought the boat right to the resort. Had a nice sunset cruise and dropped us back at the hotel. Highly recommend Esther for Luxor tours. We had a great time.

Great time in Luxor
We had the most incredible experience in Luxor thanks to our amazing tour guide, Esther. She took us to Karnak Temple, the Valley of the Kings, and Temple of Hatshepsut, bringing history to life with her deep knowledge and engaging storytelling. Her passion for Egyptian history was truly inspiring, and she made every site even more fascinating. Beyond her expertise, she had an amazing personality—warm, friendly, and fun. From the moment we met her, it felt like we were exploring Luxor with family. She went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience, answering all our questions and making us feel so welcome. If you’re visiting Luxor, I highly recommend booking a tour with her. She made our trip unforgettable!

EXCELLENT LUXOR TOUR
An excellent tour. Absolutely loved it! The guide Esther is incredibly knowledgeable and explained the rich history or each location with enthusiasm which made the experience more fun. If you want to enjoy Luxor then this is the tour for you! For our meals we wanted to enjoy some authentic local cuisine without breaking the bank and have a wonderful view, our guide said "say less" she delivered. She took us to great spots that not only provided us with beautiful photos, the food was devine (even for a family with picky eaters) there was something for everyone and most importantly it was very affordable too. We wanted good souvenirs and our guide took us to an authentic place to buy great quality souvenirs and even negotiated great prizes for us. We can't wait to go back again!!!

The monuments, temples and Pyramids of Egypt are a testimony to the great beauty of the old civilization and Esther did full jus
Our visit to Egypt was in Sept 2023. We took the cuise and enjoyed the beauty of the Nile river. On reaching Luxor we were met by our guide Ms Esther at the hotel we checked into. Esther took us around the sites of Valley of Kings, Hapshetsut the Queen ,Karnak and Luxor temple. We found her very knowledgeable about the history of Egypt which she explained in detail and answered our questions to our satisfaction. By the way she is also a doctorate in Egyptolgy. We also enjoyed her company and had a nice lunch. It was with a heavy heart we had to bid adieu to Egypt and Esther on conclusion of our Visit.

Why this scores 68
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Full Day in Luxor West Bank And East Bank: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Private Full Day in Luxor West Bank And East Bank cost?
+
Prices start at $40 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 Full Day in Luxor West Bank And East Bank take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Full Day in Luxor West Bank And East Bank worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Full Day in Luxor West Bank And East Bank?
+
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 Full Day in Luxor West Bank And East Bank suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Full Day in Luxor West Bank And East Bank?
+
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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Full Day in Luxor West Bank And East Bank 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 to East and West Banks of Luxor (Private), 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 Full Day in Luxor West Bank And East Bank?
+
Included: bottle of water; visit vally of the kings; tour guide; visit hatshepsut temple; and visit luxor temple. Not included: Entrance tickets to temples. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 10 listed pickup locations in and around Luxor. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Private Full Day in Luxor West Bank And East Bank offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
