Amazing tour of Valley of the King, Hatshepsut Temple, and Habu
This tour was absolutely fantastic! Ibrahim was incredibly knowledgeable about all the sites we visited and answered all of our historical questions. Both he and the driver were friendly and made it a great day out. All logistics were easy; they arrived on time, and everything was smooth and fun. We'd highly recommend this tour!!

We had an incredible...
We had an incredible morning exploring Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut and Valley of the Queens with our guide Sayed and driver Mustafa. Everything was seamless from our collection from our East bank hotel through visiting multiple sites with some stops on the way for a quick snap of the hot air balloons and later to see Colossi of Memnon. Our guide and driver were both very friendly and helpful. Sayed was very knowledgeable about Egyptian history and we learnt loads of the various sites. Fantastic morning! We’d definitely recommend going early to avoid heat and crowds.

Amazing tour with an excellent guide, Mostafa!
What an incredible experience! Visiting the Valley of the Kings, Medinet Habu and the Temple of Hatshepsut was definitely one of the highlights of my trip to Egypt. A special thanks to our guide, Mostafa, who made the experience even better. His knowledge, explanations and passion for Egyptian history really brought these amazing places to life. He was friendly, professional and made the whole tour extremely enjoyable. The sites themselves are absolutely breathtaking, and having such a great guide made all the difference. I couldn’t recommend this tour and Mostafa enough. An unforgettable experience in Luxor and absolutely worth it! Five stars!

Great communication with Tag-Tour, very good time with Aala
Great experience! Very efficient and clear communication, including all arrangements upfront via WhatsApp. During the day, I was also contacted twice by Tag-Tour via WhatsApp to make sure everything was going well. Very considerate and quick communication throughout. Coming from Germany, I was very lucky to visit the sites with Aala. He was originally booked simply as a driver, but thanks to his hospitable nature, he went above and beyond and showed me around, explaining many interesting things about the sites before we even reached them. Aala is a great guy. Punctual, relaxed and very friendly. I really appreciated his hospitality and the effort he made to make the day special. Special thanks to him!

Excellent private tour of Luxor’s West Bank
We had a fantastic half-day private tour of Luxor’s West Bank, visiting the Valley of the Kings, Medinet Habu and Hatshepsut Temple. Having a private car van super confortable made everything very comfortable and efficient, and our English-speaking guide Saber was knowledgeable and gave us a much deeper understanding of the history and symbolism of the sites. Everything was well organised, from the early 7:00 AM pickup to the return to our hotel. Mahmoud the driver was super careful driving in the trip. If you are doing this execursion in the summer be prepared for the heat in the sights it can be exhausting and hard to manage. Thanks!

Private Half-Day Luxor Tour:Valley of the Kings,Habu & Hatshepsut: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Private Half-Day Luxor Tour:Valley of the Kings,Habu & Hatshepsut cost?
+
Prices start at $9 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 Half-Day Luxor Tour:Valley of the Kings,Habu & Hatshepsut take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Half-Day Luxor Tour:Valley of the Kings,Habu & Hatshepsut worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 46 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 Half-Day Luxor Tour:Valley of the Kings,Habu & Hatshepsut?
+
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 Half-Day Luxor Tour:Valley of the Kings,Habu & Hatshepsut suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Half-Day Luxor Tour:Valley of the Kings,Habu & Hatshepsut?
+
Around 16 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Half-Day Luxor Tour:Valley of the Kings,Habu & Hatshepsut 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 Half-Day Luxor Tour:Valley of the Kings,Habu & Hatshepsut?
