Great and informative tour of Luxor, Mohamed was an excellent tour guide
We had a great time on our private tour from Hurgharda to Luxor. We really enjoyed seeing the valley of the kings and it was great to be able to personalise the trip to visit a vegan restaurant as well. Our driver Ashraf and Mohamed qenawy Tour guide in luxor were great. Mohamed’s English was excellent and it was really interesting to learn about Egyptian history. Mohamed also took lots of photos of us which was great and warned us about scammers taking photos and then asking for money which was helpful. We felt very safe with him and had lots of fun. The only thing that was disappointing was that the tour said it included snacks and drinks and we weren’t offered any from our driver so glad we brought our own! It was a long journey but worth seeing real Egypt :)
Response from the operator: The entire tour team thanks you for this wonderful review. We hope to see you again soon. It was also a pleasure meeting you. we are sorry for the snacks and the wotar ; next time there won't be any mistakes because we are professionals and we don't accept shortcomings in the tour.

Absolutely brilliant service. Fantastic driver and guide. Both made the day very special from start to finish. Our guide was very good and his knowledge was brilliant and English amazing. Never felt rushed when looking around and answered all our questions.

Perfect day out
Can’t fault the company at all, from our first contact with Mahmoud everything ran absolutely perfectly. Our driver Youssef was fantastic, provided us with a pack of crisps each, some fizzy drinks and plenty of bottled water. There was no waiting around, at each stop he was there ready for us, in his air conditioned van. My daughter accidentally left her iPad on the bus and the following day he kindly returned it to our hotel. Our guide Mohammed’s (Luxor) English was very good and he spoke to us in the shade at each stop where possible, explaining the history thoroughly, he also told us to stay close to him and the sellers at each place wouldn’t bother us as much, this worked, they are just trying to make some money but it can become very annoying. We left our hotel at 5am and was back at hotel by 7pm. A tip for anyone would be to make sure you take Egyptian money, each stop for toilet cost us 20 EGP each (about 30p).
Response from the operator: 🙏Thank you Mr. Lan for this review.📝 The time was also enjoyable with you and the team was also happy ❤️to serve you and meet you. Of course We serve you with love❤️. Thank🙏 you sir and we hope to see you again soon.

The buss trip with Ahmed was a 100/100 experience, will never forget, so book your trip with Ahmed next time!!
Egypts best driver in the world… Ahmed!! Super good WiFi connection on the buss, no slow internet works super good and fast, like WiFi at home! A installed television with funny memes, watching that will let you have a good laugh Many different snacks, super good, many different varieties, the same with drinks, are you thirsty? What do you want coke, Pepsi, fanta or sprite? No worry’s Ahmed has everything! Very talkative, very funny, very invested in talking and listening to you, makes you feel very welcome and warm, he’s hilarious you’ll laugh 24/7 LOL Ahmed is also on time! We booked the bus to come at 04:30 in the morning he arrives 10 minutes early, the buss was clean, it was very comfortable, and you fall asleep very fast because it’s so comfortable, and Ahmed promised us to be back at the hotel by 18:30 or 6:30pm and he was right on the dot! It was insane, but very nice we don’t come back like 1-2 hours later like many other buses do.
Response from the operator: Muito obrigado 🙏Sr. Vladimir e Ana por esta avaliação tão gentil❤️. O tempo todo e Ahmed, o motorista, envia a você seus calorosos cumprimentos ❤️ e esperamos 🙏 vê-lo novamente em breve

Our Luxor Valley Tour with Mahmoud and Yousef
My daughter and I are from Toronto (actually I'm from the GTA), Canada. We came to Hurghada to go on a diving trip, but we really couldn't be here and not see the Luxor Valley (and earlier on, Cairo and the Pyramids). We really enjoyed the tour of the UNESCO World Heritage Site: Karnak Temple, the Colossi of Memnon, the Temple of Hatshepsut, and the Valley of the Kings. Adjectives don't do it justice - actually, I was gobsmacked (this one will have to do!) by the size and volume of these ruins. Rather than try to describe it further, I would recommend you go see them for yourself (yes, there is probably a ton of stuff on YT...glad I didn't spoil the surprise for myself by going there!). It was a long way from Hurghada to get there. Our driver Yousef was solid, in spite of driving more than 8 hrs yesterday. He never wavered and took a break when needed, which certainly made me feel better, knowing what that kind of drive can do to you (we have, as you probably know, long distances in Canada). He manoeuvred the sometimes rough roads with great skill and care for his passengers. Thank you so much, Yousef! Our guide, Mahmoud Amin, was superb at his craft and answered any and all questions that we had, whether about history or culture. My daughter was particularly impressed with his ability to decipher hieroglyphics. For me, he's a man who speaks from the heart and he's trying his best to give you value for your money. Yes, we paid good money - actually cheap by North American standards! - and yes, it was worth every cent! Thank you so much, guys! Great job! You've given us memories that will last a lifetime! John and Lidia
Response from the operator: We are glad to have met❤️ you and served❤️ you and we send our warmest greetings👋 to the friendly Canadian🇨🇦 people. 🙏Thank you Mr John and Lidia for this review📝 and we 🙏hope to see😍 you again in your second country Egypt.🇪🇬

Private Luxor Day Tour from Hurghada by Car – All Inclusive: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.
How much does Private Luxor Day Tour from Hurghada by Car – All Inclusive cost?
+
Prices start at $51 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hurghada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Luxor Day Tour from Hurghada by Car – All Inclusive take?
+
Plan for about 14 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 Hurghada is not rushed.
Is Private Luxor Day Tour from Hurghada by Car – All Inclusive worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 65 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hurghada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Luxor Day Tour from Hurghada by Car – All Inclusive?
+
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 Luxor Day Tour from Hurghada by Car – All Inclusive suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 14-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Luxor Day Tour from Hurghada by Car – All Inclusive?
+
Around 23 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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada and add a light layer if any part of the 14-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Luxor Day Tour from Hurghada by Car – All Inclusive 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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada?
+
On Outty we rank every Hurghada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hurghada: Luxor Valley of the Kings & Tutankhamun Tomb Trip, Orange Bay Island, Luxury Cruise to Orange Bay and Hula Hula island Trip. 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 Hurghada?
+
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 Hurghada?
+
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.
