Great private tour which includes everything.
Maret was super nice. She could answer all our question and we could choose where to spend more time as it was a private tour! The car was clean and we could even bring our luggage with us.

Great experience for any traveller, highly recommended!
Great experience, with an awesome team of Anwaj and Mariem who taught us a lot about ancient Egypt. We got plenty of freedom on our tour we got to see all the tombs by ourselves and have plenty of time to take photos and explore the temples. Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much , it was a pleasure serving you Sam

Awesome full day tour of Luxors east and West Bank
We had an awesome full day tour with Maret today. I would definitely recommend this full day tour as you get to see all of Luxor’s sites and every site is amazing. Maret was very enthusiastic, friendly and knowledgeable about every site and we learnt a lot from her. She made sure we were well informed with both pictures and history before we walked around each site which helped a lot. Thankyou to Amwg and Mariem as well for helping organise it for us.
Response from the operator: Thanks to you Mr. Mahan for your lovely words we are glad we had the chance to serve you . Can't wait to welcome you again in Egypt :)

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Luxor Guided — Valley of the Kings, Karnak & more FullDay: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Private Luxor Guided — Valley of the Kings, Karnak & more FullDay cost?
+
Prices start at $14 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 Luxor Guided — Valley of the Kings, Karnak & more FullDay 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 Luxor Guided — Valley of the Kings, Karnak & more FullDay worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 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 Luxor Guided — Valley of the Kings, Karnak & more FullDay?
+
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 Guided — Valley of the Kings, Karnak & more FullDay 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 Luxor Guided — Valley of the Kings, Karnak & more FullDay?
+
Around 1 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 Luxor Guided — Valley of the Kings, Karnak & more FullDay 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.
